On Christmas Day I was asked to be the (semi)official photographer for a friend's wedding. However, on the day before the wedding (January 13) I was stuck in Rio. (A 6 hour drive from home)
Fortunately the car (which was/is broken) was deemed safe to travel back. So off we go at 5 in the morning, arriving home at 11 with the wedding starting at 12.
All I had time to do was take a shower, throw on some clothes, and run outside to start shooting photos. (Over 460)
Thankfully some of the photos turned out decent, I was expecting a total flop. I learned a lot, mainly in regards to focusing and timing. (Yes, I learned the hard way) But that was one reason why I accepted to take photos of the wedding, so I could learn, even if it would be through the school of hard knocks.
Here are a couple of the best ones. (In my humble opinion at least)

My brother came in yesterday. He is visiting from the US. So we met up with my older sister today, and sat around for a few hours drinking beer, talking, and picking on my sister.
It is part of the family tradition, whenever we get together we always pick on the girls. No photos, even though my brother did bring me a new 1 Gig memory card. (Kudos!!)
Catch y'all in a couple of days.
PS. Congratulations to Crystal and Gabe on their wedding!
