This past Saturday I flew to Denver to photograph Sherri and John Meyer's wedding. It wasn't the traditional big-to-do that most weddings are, but yet a more intimate and comedic ceremony followed by a casual dinner reception. Sherri and John are both real estate agents so their pastor, and friend, wrote a hilarious ceremony surrounding their profession and their "binding contractual love." Everyone really enjoyed it. I was only contracted for three hours of coverage so I really had to be constantly looking for different images. Luckily for me Sherri, John and their guests had a great time so I didn't have a problem finding storytelling images.
I'm always looking to put my own touch on every wedding that I shoot to help set me apart from other photographers. In this case I set up a remote camera on the steel structure near the ceremony site to give me another angle to shoot from. It wasn't physically possible for me to stand behind the pastor so the remote allowed me to be at two places at once while I photographed from other locations. You can see an example of what the remote camera produced in image #8.
