Photo of the day: our wedding photo booth

July 21st, 2009

My Uncle Raul & Auntie Remy, unaware of what's going on behind them

Our wedding was lovely. It was filled with fun, food, & laughter. To add fuel to the fun & being the big photo geek that I am, I thought it would be a cool idea to set up a self-run photo booth that our guests could use. It ran with a camera, two lights & a remote to trigger the shutter. Guests would stand within a laid-out box that I’ve marked on the ground, use the remote that was available to them, smile to the camera & press the big red button. To show a bit of dinner crowd & to express my love for candid photography, the camera faced into the dining area.

Above is a photo of my Auntie Remy & Uncle Raul. The creepy couple standing behind them in the shadows a couple feet behind them are my two good friends T-Bone & Molly. In case you’re interested, here’s a closeup of the background couple:

(I secretly composed my camera so exactly this would happen. I knew I could count on good ol’ reliable T-Bone.)

I’m still in the process of going through all of my wedding photos, but I couldn’t help but post this one up. It kept me howling with laughter for hours.
