Guest Post - The One With The Awesome 'Fro

Greetings One and All,

This is the first of a couple of submissions I've had via the "Submit a Dream" button. I like it, because, to me, it reads like an exam dream, which I haven't had since Vet School (obv.). It's nice to know they still exist. Claude's a wedding photographer and a mate of mine, so you can understand where the stress comes from, on both counts.

The One With The Awesome 'Fro - Claude Schneider

Was asked to photograph the wedding of two friends (who are actually going out), but hadn't discussed or prepared with them what they wanted photographed on the day; so I missed loads of important bits (at one point got dragged out by a relative for no good reason and missed a chunk). Then again, the bride and groom were late for things, not always together, and the wedding was rather relaxed. She was wearing a black/burgundy dress/casual concoction, but burgundy may have been her colour, hence the choice.

I borrowed her (large) ring to photograph it, took it way out to the end of (my parent's house) garden, where the last of the sunlight was, and took some photos of it on the grass.
Headed out to a club after that, turned out to be free entry, with a pizza restaurant in the left room as you enter, restrooms on the right (where I wet my hair and got an awesome 'fro going on under a blue sweatband), and then upstairs to the club to find some ladies.
