When an unknown photographer suddenly appears at a wedding... - toni-a - 11-14-2022

This saturday I had the shooting of the christening of my friend's son at the church here in Doha Qatar.
I arrived a little early only to fond a couple getting married with guests shooting with their phones.
I started preparing my equipment and saw a sad look on the face of the bride, naturally I offered taking a few pictures, in 10 minutes I was done, since the child and family arrived, and I left a very happy couple starting their life together with delightful surprise.

Huh, so they did not really have anyone at all to photograph the wedding? That speaks more of someone (supposedly the groom) being frugal, not necessarily of the state of the industry at the moment. Smile

They told me they are preparing for a big lavish wedding celebration back in Lebanon in a few weeks , but they held a religious ceremony in Qatar for administrative reasons, even if no celebrations done , however they  were becoming husband and wife..... so when the hour of truth came they realized their error but it was too late, I just showed up saving the day
