Recently had my niece ask me to shoot her wedding this fall. My response to
her (as well as several other relatives) was that she should hire a pro for
"at least " the formals or shots she "must "have and that I would be
pleased to shoot candids, and if the pro agreed, some of my own formals
etc. Previous experience has shown that I am not under the gun, the couple
can save a few bucks and I get to shoot the way I like -- everyone wins
(the happy couple of course receive all my stuff as a gift).
