Day 217: Dancing with the Men in her Life

Dianna thought it wouldn't be a good idea if I took a lot of photos at the wedding, so I just brought one lens, my Beloved 105 mm 2.0 lens. At the reception, Dianna and her friends called me to the main table and said they'd hired the photographer for just the church, and asked if I'd take a photo of cutting the cake. Dianna said, "go crazy with the camera, mom; be the papparazzi!"

The gloves were off! And I was delighted to do what I could with just the one lens, no tripod or external flash. (and being a very definite novice!)

Anyway, I had a blast, have about 170 photos. I just took shots that appealed to me and I hoped they'd like, and hopefully others will give them lots of photos from their cameras as well.

I shot these with RAW, am editing them with CS3, and am using some of Ren's actions, and EZactions. I'm trying to go through them, crop them the best I can, and make some adjustments, trying to avoid anything wild, but enhancing them where I can. (It's not the time to include the Zuchinni Girls!

If you have some basic recommendations to just get a nice set of photos in my sweet little friend's hands, on a CD, so she can print what she wants, PLEASE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I've edited about 10 of them so far.

Thanks!





For this next one, I saved one that was edited more like the above photo, but used the Sun Kissed easy action on this one as well, and will include both on the CD.
