Inside a Groom's Preparation

Last night I was covering the groom’s preparation for a fellow photographer. She told me that it’s a big family and I have to manage a big crowd.When I arrived, i received fantastic vibes and felt very welcome. First people I' ve met was the grandfather and grandmother while next were the parents, a very young couple with 8(!!!) kids. As I started shooting the details and accessories friends and relatives kept coming and at the time that the groom was ready to start getting dressed we had about 60-70 people inside the house.The house was getting smaller and smaller as the visitors was getting closer and closer to the action so they can take images videos or even livestream the preparation. I love the shooting simple and discreet so I can capture the authenticity and the candid moments of the day. Real emotions, real tears (ok, some times i provoke them a bit using simple words), real smiles and reactions. Check out the reportage and let me know your thoughts.

I love when you have a lot going on during getting ready. When you have a lot of storytelling in the very first part of the wedding day. You did a great job here!
