BONUS WEDDING PHOTO TIP #2

If you have interesting details, try to photograph them in an interesting way

I knew that the groom had asked all of the groomsmen to wear their favorite belt buckle to the ceremony.  Rather than photographing all of the buckles on a table together, I waited until they had them on to snap the shot.  I intentionally refrained from asking them to straighten their ties and shirts as it gives an accurate picture of the casual elegance of this wedding combined with the chaos pre-ceremony.  I took this shot with my 35mm lens.
