49/366--Derik and Bridgette's Requested Lightpainting Wedding Photo

First off i just wanted to say a big congrats to Derik and Bridgette on there awesome wedding day. I had such a great time working with them and all the wedding party. Fun people, good times and a great day. Congrats again to both of them.

So when i meet up last year with Bridgette and Derik they had asked me if i was willing to do a lightpainting photo for them on there wedding day, I was more then happy and im so glad that people are stoked for a LP wedding photo -- ive had about 5 couple's request that for this year. So it was late after supper and the sun was gone down as me, Derik and Bridgette headed out back of the reception to find a spot where i could set up all my gear and do some test for there lightpainting photo. Lets just say it was cold out there and both bride and groom were great for that all day trooping out the Canadian weather. After some test i also added in my flash to this photo, its behind the couple and its gelled blue. Its great being able to Light paint on there wedding day and whens its requested by the couple thats ever better. Thanks again to Bridgette and Derik and there whole wedding party for the great day and all the best to you in your lifes adventures.
