My baby brother Alan got married yesterday (July 14th), to Natalie\nRaiti. “Baby brother” may be somewhat of a relative<\/span> term,\nthough, as he turns 35 next week. Natalie, though, was definately worth the\nwait.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nAnthony was a ring bearer, along with a new<\/span> friend, Kenneth (nephews of the\ngroom and bride, respectively).<\/p>\n\n

The bear that Anthony holds is Tuffy, Alan's best friend prior to\nmeeting Natalie. Notice how Anthony tries to help out Tuffy by covering,\nwith his right (our left) index finger, the ugly plastic bloch on Tuffy's\nface. (My bear, Tubby, does not have this defect.)<\/p>\n\n

I was way<\/b> out of my league, photography wise. I don't<\/span> know my\nequipment nearly enough, much less do I have<\/span> the experience needed to take\ngood photos in a wedding<\/span> situation. So, I took the<\/span> “carpet bombing”\napproach, taking 600+ photos. I used the<\/span> minimal natural light, and no\ntripod, so I had<\/span> the ISO pumped up and all the shots turned out grainy. I wish I<\/span> had my Noise Ninja<\/a> on my\nlaptop. Luckily, they had a professional<\/span> photographer.\n\n<\/p>\n\n
