Second shooting is not an easy task – it requires a special set of skills and certain abilities – I tell all my assistants that they should never undermine their talent because they are not the lead. The ability to step back and catch more candid moments is just one of these abilities shared by second shooters and photojournalists – and as I have said a million times before – a skill I definitely would like to develop. So when one of my facebook friends – the fabulous Jenna Simpson asked me if I was free for a Friday wedding to come and second shoot with her – I jumped at the chance – even though it was the same weekend as my shower, and being 8 months pregnant I couldn’t even really carry her bag!
Jenna always posts super fun and creative shots and I have always loved looking at her work – so I knew we’d have a good time and I was so right. Freezing in the parking lot – we sat for almost an hour after we were done just chatting. I am so thankful to her for asking me to come along for this wedding. Caleb and Kalina were beyond cute and had one of the most touching ceremonies – I loved all the songs incorporated and how both sets of parents came and layed their hands on them in prayer after presenting them with a bible. It was a beautiful day and we couldn’t have asked for better weather. Thanks to both of them for including me and being so easy to photograph! Here’s a few photos from their day . . .
Wishing you friendship and love,
Amanda
