« Journey Back in Time Kiss and 'Play »

Picture Perfect

June 23, 2008 by David Bergman

My friend and fellow photographer Brian Friedman married his lovely bride Jessica at a beautiful ceremony yesterday. I pulled my twice-a-year suit out of the closet to attend with Alice Marie and Amanda.

Brian shoots a lot of weddings himself, so he was very smart about coverage. He asked a few of his photographer friends to each shoot part of the day.

If any one of us shot the whole event, we would not have been able to enjoy ourselves as guests. Since he had three people shooting in shifts, it didn’t feel like work, Brian didn’t have to hire an official photographer, and he got a wide variety of photographic styles to choose from.

I was asked to cover the ceremony and was happy to do so. I knew I had to get the kiss, so I positioned myself to be ready for it.

Congratulations to Jess and Brian. They’re perfect for each other and the wedding went off without a hitch (except for the fact that they actually got “hitched”).
