The happy couple by danette

The happy couple

Spent the day yesterday with my son and his fiancé taking photos for their engagement. Ended up with a few hundred. Such a personal challenge. We visited 3 places. Had planned to start later in the day, but added a site. It was hot! We were running late. Then, at the second location, my camera failed. Have to look at it today. Hoping it's just the SD card. We could only take advantage of the setting sun for a few minutes because of the cloud bank, but it ended up liking this one. It is not perfect and I may still work on it. I sure need to learn how to control the strength of my flash!

Comments are welcome.
Congratulations on your son's engagement. How fun to go around taking pictures of the happy couple.

Thank you all for stopping by to comment. I would have liked more time at this location. Maybe another day. There was a definite learning curve for me, even though I have shot other people! While the flash here looks fine, there were so many others it was a problem for me. I guess I need more equipment. Thankfully, the camera seems to be okay. It was giving me an "error" just before recording the photo. Maybe it was worn out on a hot day. They got to comb through the images yesterday and took home several hundred to tell me which ones to edit.
