During a wedding I find myself being a wedding photojournalist, portrait photographer, architectural photographer, food photographer, jewelry photographer, and wedding photographer all within 5 minutes.  Things happen so quickly that I need to be on the top of my game.

If you’re a follower of my Daily Photo Blog , you know that I post a new photo every day that at first glance have nothing to do with wedding photography, yet they all relate in some way.   It keeps me on my game because it’s a place for me to explore composition, to learn, to play with light, to spark creativity, and to document whatever catches my eye.  Earlier last month I posted a picture of my bride that I had photographed at Imaging USA using a lighting technique that I had just learned from Denis Reggie (the best of the best in wedding photo journalism.)  I had the opportunity to use that technique at the wedding two weeks ago and I was amazed with the results.
