Nashville

I spent the weekend in Nashville visiting friends. The town is pretty fun, and the people there are cool. Musicians are bursting from the seams. And though it would be great to live in a city where I can go see a live band almost any time of the day, it's not for me. I need a city with a more urban feel. But the trip was fun for the most part. We went to Honkey tonks and heard some live country. Though, I don't normally like country music, I did when we were out. Maybe there is better live country in Nashville, or maybe I was just really drunk.

Tonight, I edited about 70 images from a wedding I photographed the first weekend this month. Overall the conditions for the wedding were great. The church was huge and beautiful. And the pastor and very accomodating. The bride and groom were really cool and laid back. The best part was that the reception was at the museum I work at, so I already knew the conditions I would be working in, plus I had access to get to areas the gave me the best overall shots.

The part that made the wedding somewhat difficult was one of the groomsmen decided that he was going to photograph THE ENTIRE WEDDING. Which meant that he was uusually under foot and in my way while I am trying to work. I don't think he affected my photography, I made shure I got the shots I need before he could get in place to get his. But I was so frustrated that it took me about a week to even look at the images let alone start editing.

So far, looking at the images, I think this is the best wedding I ever shot. Not perfect at all, but I'm generally happy with my shots. This is great, I finally have an entire wedding I can show to get more work.
