Hi All
A couple of friends of mine are getting married at the end of October and I am invited as a guest. They had decided not to have a wedding photographer as it is second time around for both of them, so I suggested I take my camera gear and just get a record of the day for them. So there is no real pressure on me but I would obviously like to do a good job. They don't want any bridal/groom prep shots or group shots except one of the whole wedding party (about 40 guests).
However the wedding is in a hotel and the service is at 4.30pm the week after the clocks go back so no real natural light, with the meal at 6pm.
I am taking
2 x canon 60D
2 x Yongnuo 568 flash
Tamron 17-50 F2.8
Tamron 28-75 F2.8
Canon EF 70-300 F4-5.6
White balance card
spare battery and memory cards
Gary Fong rip off thingy which I probably won't use.
wireless triggers
I am confident in using flash and luckily the ceilings are nice and white in the hotel, and I was also hoping to get a couple of OCF shots between the service and meal.
I have also told them that after the first dance I am having lots of beer!
Any advice would be welcome, do I need to take any other gear?
