I had the privilege of being the photographer when Queensberry's pinup boy/metrosexual, Nigel, tied the knot with Kayla a few months ago, and I learnt a lesson. Pretty much at the beginning of the day I unintentionally upset the bride's parents. They had organised that I would shoot photographs outside their neighbour's property. I took half a dozen images and ticked the box for family pics at home. But I also wanted to do a quick family photograph in their own garden, in a spot that from my point of view, between rain showers, would do the job well. The bride's mother was able to conceal, through good manners, her horror at my photographing in their unweeded garden, but managed to mention it to some of the guests as a potential photographic catastrophe. I regret not realising her concern at the time so that I could put her mind at ease and nip any damage in the bud. Too late I was. The opinions had been expressed. The lesson is about heightened awareness. Sometimes people are so polite. Cheers, Johannes

Nice insightful post Johannes, but it would be great to see the photo that you mention too.
