Cocktail hour shot Can't Post
I played second shooter again. It is a lot of fun because I get to play while the "real photographer" takes care of the basics. Cool The people in the window are behind me in the same room. I aimed the flash at the ceiling and slightly behind me and was able to light them enough to make them reflect brightly in the window in front of me.

Where's Julie? (i.e., how did you keep from reflecting yourself?)

Looks like as if she was shooting from an angle.

I always suspected I become invisible at weddings because so many people don't seem to see me when I am shooting and walk and stand right in front of me. This next shot proved my theory! I took this one facing directly at the window and GASP!!! I am no where to be seen!!! Shocked

Thats because your a smart cookie and hid in front of that beam so your reflection would not be cast.Wink

I didn't know videographers had reflections? I do know I crawl into a box to sleep when the Sun starts to come up!

Rusty I think you need to move up here to the Chicago area and work with me out of this studio myself and another photo guy are opening. We'll keep you busy and swimming in Budweiser and Cheesy Tuna Pasta!

I think it has more to do with those little bites I found on my neck awhile back. Haven't had a reflection since!
