I'm doing it cheap & for a friend, but I'm still pretty excited to have some stuff to add to my portfolio, along with a little $$!

nice dude, good job!

Cool!

nice Mark!

Cool, first wedding then? Let us know if you need some advice.

Awesome, Mark. You'll be shooting them like crazy in no time.

This'll be my third, actually... just the first paid one. The other two were for family.

Nice Mark, great stuff. Its gotta be a bit nerve racking, but fun I suppose.

I perform well under pressure--my real job is much more stressful!

Thats true, and a good way to look at it. I guess it might not be so bad compared to some things I deal with day to day.

Nice! Can't wait to see the shots!

And I don't mean to diminish the difficulty of wedding photography--I am just starting with baby steps, doing weddings for family (which brings its own stress), and now a friend. I definitely don't enjoy it as much as doing photography on my own, at my own pace, in my own way, but it has its own perks ($$).

I personally just don't know that I'd want to deal with the stress of a bridezilla and all the other BS you'll eventually have to deal with.

Awesome, congrats

Thats the key Mark,

shooting a wedding YOUR way... Thats why I love it. Take the stress out and have fun shooting.
