TRADITIONAL NIGERIAN WEDDING – THE ONE WITH FUNKE AND SEUN – TOWFAS – PREVIEW
As usual, am always so excited when am working on a new wedding. This particular wedding is very important to me because while i shot the elder sister’s wedding in December 2008, i got to shoot her in December 2009, talk about family business.
The wedding itself was well planned so i totally enjoyed myself (there was the horrible experience of misplacing one of my empty compact flash cards though). I shot over 6000 images all raw at both the wedding and engagement. It was one of the most beautiful weddings i ever photographed in Nigeria as a photographer, not just because of the location and decorations but because of the bride and groom themselves, you could see this two were in love. They couldn’t help holding hands and whispering into each other’s eyes and giggling, if only all Nigerian weddings could be like this.
Now, i said i shot of 6,000 images in raw format, on my amazing Nikon D700 camera, that comes to a whopping 75GB of pictures.
With my combination of Apple’s new 8 Core Mac Pro and my Drobo S, i ate through 6,000 images like paper.
Below is one of the pictures i got while the bride was getting ready for the traditional Nigerian wedding. Hope you all like it.
EDIT ** Added more pictures
