One of my new favs. Shot with a fish eye, camera on tripod, held 4' above group. Right before it fired the group split up, and the girl jumped under, and I got this:

    I hope you are not a guy, Camara Photography LLC, because that shot is going to be seen by some women as a blatant attempt to photograph down their shirts. Do this with EXTREME CAUTION!!!!

    I'm just sayin'!

    Good point. The thought actually never occurred to me. I am a guy, but the fact that my wife is the second shooter, I think / hope, would keep people from thinking that. Now if I had done this in reverse, with the camera on the floor... now we're talking! I'll work on getting away with that! JUST KIDDING!

    Funny story not unrelated to this...

    My SO is (among other things) a church organist. At the church in question, there was an acoustic anomaly due to the shape of the building whereby if you are at the back of the balcony you can hear even the quietest whisper spoken from the organ loft, and vice-versa - it's basically a giant "whispering gallery".

    At one wedding, a relative of the bride was videoing from the back of the balcony, and a friend of the groom was in the loft to sing a song for the couple. The bride was wearing a, shall we say, revealing dress (read: June was bustin' out all over), and as she came down the aisle, the friend of the groom whispered with a guffaw to my other half at the organ, "Whoosh - getaload of THAT!!!".

    At the end of the ceremony, the brother came up to the organ loft and thumped the friend of the groom. WHOOPS!! Every word had been audible...

    So yeah. Be careful with that one :D

    Isn't there a high$$$ wedding photographer who sets the self timer on his camera and throws is up in the air for shots? I do like this shot though. I think it is fun and harmless.
