Speeches at the wedding

OTHER PEOPLE EMOTIONS by THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN ALGARVE

I like very much to photograph speeches at the wedding party. Sadly for the wedding photographer, because of his peeking photographic side, the habit of speech at weddings does not exist too much in Portugal. So, when this happens I profit from everything I can.

But for my curious cameras finding laughter fanatics, bulging eyes, furtive tears, and astonished faces, it is not the speaker that put them around floating between guests, looking for those moments that are the reason why they are in this place. Even if the speech is the most eloquent it is the listener that my cameras look around.

Because agrees, because is amazed at the news, because becomes emotional with the remember, because kicks himself laughing at the discovery, or simply listens with all that serenity on his face, just waiting for my lens that brings to the future those, always, very emotional moments. With these speech moments, the wedding photographer never comes home with empty hands.
