I Fear Tears

To shoot an emotional wedding is the closest thing to covering a journalistic event for the press. You arrive, you observe, you learn, you feel, you immerse, and you document. The last thing a documentary photographer can do is to get too overwhelmed by the occasion and in the process allow the moment to come and go.

I can cry at some silly parts of a movie, but on the job, I've learned to be more hardened.

Great candid, photojournalism style photos! Michael and Linda's wedding was really beautiful and unique. And you have captured the happy reality of the day so well and so honestly through your camera lens! Well done. And congratulations again to Linda and Michael!
