Making me laugh....


I look back at wedding photos....
and sometimes,
I just bust out laughing....

Mostly,
 for the things that I overlooked when 
I was snapping away....

Like here,
I didn't notice that the groom had 
an extraordinary amount of 
RED lip gloss all over his 
mouth....
(glad it matched her's)


And I hadn't noticed
 that my sweetie
(the one that should be buying me pearls in Shanghai right now)
is in the photo, 
right over the grooms shoulder.

Oh well,
that is what photojournalism is all about.
"On the fly"
"spur of the moment"
"spontaneous"
"not posed"
"un-controlled chaos"
mostly....
smiles.
