Thank you, I was worried it would be a bit corny, but think I got away with it!

Location
This was my very first wedding shoot! These two photos of the bride and groom were taken at Dookie, Victoria in April this year.Time
The photo was taken at around 5pm, just before sunset. I had an hour to shoot inbetween the wedding and reception.Lighting
I was concious of shadows on the bride and groom, my aim was to keep the shadows off their faces.Equipment
I used my Panasonic, LUMIX GX7, without a tripod, the ground was uneven and we were moving around so much.Inspiration
Marriage is the beginning of beautiful new journey of two people. I had the bride and groom walk along this beautiful country road looking at each other to show the start of their journey together. Elisha's dress was just gorgeous, I thought this was a great way to show the front and the back in the one shot. I chose the most natural looking shots for the champagne flutes.Editing
Luckily the lighting was extremely good, so very little editing was required to the two photos.I used a the champagne flute template from PIP editor, to place my two images in, I was thrilled when the couple used this shot as their thank you card!In my camera bag
I usually have 3-4 lenses in my bag. A spare battery, lots of memory cards, since the wedding I bought a 64mg memory card, so I will never run out of space again!Feedback
I made sure the 2 images were lined up at the same hieght, the horizon is level and so are the bride and groom. I made sure I was takeng them from the exact same spot.
