When I get to a wedding one of the first things that I look for (no not the loo) is who is going to be the joker during the day. Not only do they produce some wonderful photos, they are usually the best person to ask if I need a bit of help. Normally that would be the bestman or one of the groomsmen or bridal party. For this wedding I know from the start it was going to be the groom.
He know that as a documentary wedding photographer I always aim to get those candid shots where people are not looking directly at the camera. The groom had also decided that he was not going to get caught out. Pleased to say i won this game and got a lot of photos of him in action.Â
