responsible for all the images that will be
shot during the wedding. As one would
not want to get married twice, so as you
cannot recreate the wedding scenes to
take an image that you missed during
the ceremony.

have a lot of responsibilities but the only
thing he/she concentrates on is shootingimages that are worth the time and effort.

shoot in. Most of it is low-light situation
