On July 18th, my brother took the plunge and got married. Mike is the first person in the family to get married, he was the first to have a baby, and the first to teach me about photography. I owe a lot to him. I was part of the actual wedding, so I didn't take out my camera while holding one of the poles supporting the "huppah". As soon as the formal photos were done though, I grabbed my camera and started shooting.
Everyone attending the wedding looked so happy, but none happier than the bride and groom, Mike and Megan. This photo of them dancing shows the happiness. A little technical data for you, I shot a slow shutter speed, and let the background swirl while the flash held my subjects in focus.
When it was time to do the chair lift, everyone was on the dance floor and ready to help. Megan's eyes in this photo were priceless, and seeing Mike lifted into the air by his friends was awesome.
Mike's son Damir was a reluctant dancer, and he struggled to stay off the dance floor even as he was pulled out by his friends.Usually, July 18th is the day to celebrate my birthday, and then the 20th is my mom's, but this year I think we were both quite happy to be overshadowed by this event.
