My First Wedding on the 7D

My First Wedding on the 7D - Jordan & Sarah · March 23rd, 2010, 09:05 AM

Just uploaded a trailer to my first 7D wedding film. It was a rainy/snowy day outside, and the reception hall was very dark inside...so not without its challenges for a noob like me. But all in all, I loved the shoot, had a great time editing, and look forward to many more this season.

Please let me know what you think. I welcome any and all feedback, criticism, thoughts, etc. Mahalo!!

Hey Michael, great work for you first DSLR wed man! I picked up for me around 1:45 and be careful on using too many flower shots, they all began to look the same. I've read bad reviews from brides that complained about that, thou I didn't see those vids. I love the shot where you were flying over the water with the fountain bubbling and the ending was pretty sweet.

All in all I thought it was well done and I'm sure the couple will fricken love it.

yeah man, nice work! too many redundant shots up front though. drop those and add in
some more people stuff from the back end and you're there.

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, the nature stuff is a bit overkill, isn't it. I initially wanted to establish the beautiful location despite the crappy weather, and I see that one or two shots would have done that just fine. It's great having an outsider's take on it.

what did you use to stabilize the shots?

I'm curious about what you used to stabilize the shoots too. Also I was curious what len or lens did you use? It was all very good. Loved it! The end reminded me the end of Titanic... Very neat.
