Here we go...

The groom was not in favour of a "traditional" wedding and, having already bowed to pressure to get married in a church, made himself scarce when the time came to cut the cake, so the bride was left to improvise by herself. Rather than cutting the cake, he had a huge pork pie made specially and had cut that earlier in the day. This time it was the bride's turn to get what she wanted.

Caught the Bridemaid having a sly drag before they all left the ceremony for the wedding breakfast. I think her expression on being caught says it all!!

This shot shows the reaction of bridesmaids at the wedding to a photo of the closer lady eating far too much in one mouthful

one of the best men and his wife along with another guy (who was messing about all day), I pointed the camera at them and this is what they did, makes me chuckle every time :D

Even the vicar needs a drink.

This was taken after the second wedding of the morning as the current party was leaving and the third entering the church. Apparently he had over booked the weddings and had to call the third couple on the morning of their wedding and move them back an hour and a half.

A little stressed perhaps lol.

Now, with this photo, don't judge my skill. I'd owned a DSLR for maybe 10 hours, shooting on auto, and me and the groom had recently downed 2 pints, 2 jeager shots and 2 jeager bombs so we were rather drunk. In fact, I don't think I was actually looking through the view finder, I just lifted, pointed and shot.

That's the Groom, for some reason only known to himself, licking the best man's head and the bride wondering what the hell was going on. And yes, she was wearing clothes :D
 
Whilst many of these are funny, what is the definition of candid?

Does it inclue posed shots? even when it is not on the direction of the tog?

Does it include set up shots that have gone wrong?

may edit this after googling to avoid looking a prat

From the all trusting wikipedia

"Candid photography is best described as un-posed and unplanned, immediate and unobtrusive. This is in contrast to classic photography, which includes aspects such as carefully staged portrait photography, landscape photography or object photography. Candid photography catches moments of life from immersion in it.

Candid photography is opposed to the stalking involved in animal photography, sports photography or photographic journalistic intrusion, which all have a focus on getting distant objects photographed, e.g. by using telephoto lenses. Candid photography's setup includes a photographer who is there with the "subjects" to be photographed, close, and not hidden. People photographed on candid shots either ignore or accept the close presence of the photographer's camera without posing."


Yeah I know I'm a Pedant.
 
Mother of the Bride is easily offended and looked away in disgust.
