| Alex Grant and his beautiful bride Chrissie Ryan |
I always have a camera in my hand. This trip, I agonized as I left my new Canon Rebel at home, deciding instead to travel with the very light, reliable Samsung with the good zoom. I regretted my decision only in low light situations, but for the most part, the point-and-shoot performed very well.
Uncharacteristically, I forged ahead of the crowd to a prime seat on the aisle, in the second row of the "groom's side". I can never remember which side is which, but was happy I didn't have to move, as the folding chair was a little shaky on the lawn and I wanted to minimize movement, lest I find myself sprawled on the lawn, unable to get up without kicking off my platform shoes.

Turns out the groom's side is the best spot for a good view of the bride, and, because no one was in front of me, I was well positioned to see the entire bridal party. I got my test shots in before the procession began, including a few of the bride and groom. I was not looking over the heads of tall Minnesotans as I enjoyed my rare, unobstructed view. No guilt either!
