Below is a slideshow of images that I personally enjoy from Mwende and Emeka’s wedding vow renewal ceremony in Mauritius. It does lack a few pics to complete the story, but it’s late and I have a ton of other work to catch up on.
BTW, as a side note for photographers, especially new ones looking at buying a suitable kit for weddings. I am simply amazed sometimes at the amount of equipment that supposedly “must be had” if you want to shoot a wedding. A typical list may look as follows…
- must have 2/3/4/5 cameras
- must have a 24-70mm f/2.8L lens
- must have a 70-200mm f/2.8L lens
- must have a flash (or 4)
- must have remote triggers for the 4 flashes…with light stands of course
- must have a tripod
- must have a reflector
- must have a gazzilion batteries
- must have XXX bag
- must have an assistant
All the images in this slideshow, with the exception of the first one (which Cindy took) was captured with a 5D MkII and a 50mm f/1.4 lens…nothing else. Now I’ll admit, I sometimes craved a wider angle lens, but I didn’t NEED it. My kit for the rest of this year is also exactly the same, except that I added a 28mm f/1.8 to my arsenal.
