Some photographs of children found on the wedding day

Children and the photographer at the wedding

   I do not have the habit of using the children’s photos that I find on wedding days, here. I know that I see them in the places of my colleagues and I understand why. It is the children who offer, to the photographers at the weddings, the best photos that are achieved to catch during the long day and offer them in such quantity.

Whether for the tenderness that children offer us, and in a photograph they can, forever, show us that it was sincere, whether for what they transmit to those who are with them, a mother with his child in the lap it is mandatory for the wedding photographer with everything that that bond can show us, or because the restlessness that, over there, my very attentive lens noticed and caught or, even, I find it at the ceremonies, what I am doing here that they won’t even let me climb these benches, asking me to use them.

    That is why it is very difficult for them to escape to the wedding photographer and not bring them already as photos. It is, also, very difficult for the photographer, in his irrepressible vanity, to resist liking to show who does not understand a thing about weddings but who will do everything to offer him the best photos of the day.

Calling for photos

Also, I witness that, they want it that way. They show it to the wedding photographer in so many ways that he would be a fool if he were not always watching how they are all the time telling him. Well, they do not care about the event but they are all the time doing what children do which is a thing that always gives me great photos.

Pampering those who hold them in their lap, as if they were telling them it is so good in here, or gathering half a dozen of them playing those fantasies that only they know how and what, or, also, throwing that irresistible looking to the wedding photographer look here I am, you can photograph me, I like it very much.

    That is why, sometimes, I do not resist and gather some of them and say to the world that this wedding photographer also finds them and, every time he can, he picks them up with the help of his cameras and lenses.

In Gratitude

It would be an injustice if, among all these people who are offering me photos all day, I do not care a thing about those who deliver me so many and with such generosity and sincerity. It will be a lack of respect for such illustrious characters who, probably, ask themselves what is this place where my parents brought me, my mother is always telling me not to dirt my clothes in a place with so many this to play in.

Where they make that sign to me not to say anything because it seems, the only person who can talk is that gentleman with a long dress very similar to the bride’s, who, by chance, is my godmother and I like her very much and I hope she does not forget to take pictures with me when this is over and I can go outside to run and play because I am getting tired of this. After all, it never ends.

How could I, even if it is only in the form of thanks at my place to show the things I know how to do at weddings, have the best photographic builders on that very important day for two people that many others wanted to share with them?

The children, of course.
