Prepping for a wedding tomorrow afternoon that I said I'd shoot for a couple of friends. Its at 4pm and they want to have the shots taken outside as the hotel is right on the beach - sunset is about half five and we're currently still suffering from Storm Doris so if you'd all like to cross everything you own I'd be very appreciative.

I think this should cover everything I have planned:

Fuji X-T1
Samyang 12mm f2
Fuji 35mm f1.4
Carl Zeiss 50mm f1.4
Fuji 60mm f2.4 Macro
Fuji 18-55mm f2.8/4
Fuji 55-200mm f3.5/4.8
2x Extension Tubes
2x Neewer Slave Flashguns
5x Batteries
128GB of Memory Cards

I will be picking up a spare X-T1 from a friend later and I'll have the iPhone handy just for the hell of it.

Good luck with the wedding!

Really hope it's dry for you and the happy couple Beepy .... However some cloud  cover should help avoid that huge contrast problem one often gets with traditional white weddings.. Yer know .. Dark suit. White dress lol  . With all that kit you'll have your work cut out just changing lenses... Do you need a caddy ?  

Good luck ... I'm sure you.ll get some great candid and traditional shots that will be treasured forever ... I know how big a responsibility it can be doing  weddings...  One feels the weight of that trust  for such a special day  but I'd trust you with my wedding pics  having seen the quality and innovative way you approach  the task because the joy you take in getting stuff right shows in bucketfuls .. Have a great day with your friends .. 

[Black Pearl]

They'll both have white dresses on so that removes one problem

I very nearly  removed that part of my  remark in anticipation that I was being presumptuous Beepy ...   ... Hope it all goes well and you all have a great day for a very special occasion .. 

 Oh yeah   my quick pic today .

Is this what one calls " lean Mutton...?"

If I'm being honest its the only reason I said yes

Canon EF 24-105mm L

Solid workhorse that one.  

[Ryewolf]

It certainly is, I had to use the 100mm Macro to photograph it, as the only other decent lenses I have are the Laowa (which is all manual focus and I've been struggling with it since the cataract op) or the Sigma 150-600mm..

Why the hell would you?

I currently shoot with my Fuji X-System, the couple have seen my work produced with my Fuji X-System and I have the means of dealing with and producing images that the couple expect with my Fuji X-System.

I have no idea what day it is anymore thought I had done a pic   looked through what I had taken yesterday I had nothing so a late night grab of the dogs antler chew (real deer antler)

Once again you totally miss my sense of humour! Are you REALLY too young to realise that the Rolleiflex TLR was THE wedding camera even as 'recently' as the 1970s?
