Yikes. I wonder if that was her standard warning at weddings, or a request of the bride & groom..? Or of the photographer? I can see how "everyone's a photographer" might inspire a bride to want to rein it in a little bit. As she walks down the aisle, instead of seeing the loving gazes of all her friends & family, she sees a phalanx of iPhones held up to their faces, as they snap & flash away... And of course, before the ceremony is over, the images have been uploaded to facebook & tagged. lol. But, if the pro is a "Guy With a Rebel", well... then you do what you gotta do. :) -c > Regards, Bob S. > > > On Wed, Apr 25, 2012 at 3:53 PM, Jack Davis <[email protected]> wrote: >> In answer to your "survey" question; mmmm..no. >> In the case of a good friend, I'd subtly reaffirm that you're still "into" >> it, but are hesitant to bring along your SLR so as not to appear to be >> competing with the pro.
