Description
AloooooooooHa!
My two weeks of vacation are slowly coming to an end but what a joy it has been. My stepson and his bride got married here in Hawaii, without a hitch and are safely back in the mainland. Been really hectic around here during the first week but it all worked out quite well.
I pretty much shot the whole wedding, but I won't bore you with all the shots I took. I got this idea from Kort awhile back and just expanded on it a little with two rings. My stepson is 6'7 so the size of the ring is really that size...the bride is about 5'...quite a difference in size, but love knows no boundaries.
I shot this hand held, using my Mom's bible and a simple desk lamp for lighting. The hardest part about shooting this was getting the little ring to stay in place long enough to shoot it. But they loved this shot so I thought I would post it.
Thanks for indulging me here, and I hope to get back to commenting more frequently now that things have finally calmed down for me....A great weekend to all! Aloha!

A shot for them to cherish forever Dave. You did an awsome job on this. I can't take credit for it though, I got the idea from Richard, who got the idea from... Looking forward to seeing some more wedding photos. I just know you did an amazing job if this is any indication. I'm glad you enjoyed your 2 week vacation. :) ((lol at the "slave" text in focus -- I guess we know your thoughts about marriage -- wink,wink))

Quite good idea !
Beautiful composition my friend. The first thing that came to my mind was...... oh boy what a difference in the ring size and u explained it so well. I wish the couple the best and they were lucky to have such an artist for a photographer. Cheers :O)) SNAKEY
An excellent shot!
Fitting that the shadows of the rings turn into hearts. Excellent photograph.
Very nice shot to remember of their wedding! We want some wedding shot too! Please!
Contrats to all and more. Show the wedding photos.....PLEASE!!! Aloha
This photo is such a wonderful gift to the wedded couple! Like others, I feel the sentiment at first glance. Very compelling! Thank you for sharing such a special time for you and your family. =)
This has been done so many times, but I think your version is the best yet!
This is very cool!! I can just see you trying to get the rings to stay put, LOL! The difference in sizes, well is kinda neat. The lighting is very warm and goes with the whole presentation very nicely, I can see why they loved it! thanks for sharing this cool pic! 8-)
whoever digs a pit, may fall into it. whoever breaks thru a wall, may be bitten by a snake! this is a great picture. really, a classic wedding photograph. but what page is that bible turned to? the quote i typed above is the first words that popped into my vision when i enlarged the photo. surely these are not the words read at the wedding? lol. sort of a strange passage for a wedding ceremony, huh? [im joking actually]. nice nice photograph, hawaii man
A truly beautiful photo. The heart shadows say so much. Yes, I would enjoy seeing some of the wedding photos. Congratulations and a long and happy life together for the bride and groom.
wow, what a super super work!!!! excellently done!!! :)
