I'm givin' the bride away.

Talk about speechless

Monday, August 27, 2012 by Uvah | Discussion: Community

About a year ago I met this young couple. They're in the same boat I was in seven months ago. They're struggling to keep it together, both have decent jobs and just last Friday the lady told me hey were getting hitched. I asked, jokingly, who was giving the bride away and she said to me "I was going to ask you". So yeah I'm giving the bride away and don't you think I feel like I'm on top of the world. Never in my wildest dreams. < Me!

What, you don't have an asking price?

Giving her away indeed!  

Oh well, you're doing a nice thing, so good on you, mate.

I'll get to it. Just have to convince somebody to let me borrow their camera phone and take the pix from there and put them onto my lappy and then......

Well......you get the idea. Patience please. Its not as easy as all that.

camera phone

/initiate rant

There doesn't exist such a thing as a 'camera phone'.
There are mobil phones with image capturing capabilty, and then there are cameras.

The mobil phone "camera" is only good for taking quick snapshots - mostly of yourself, in a mirror, at an strange angle, to share with everyone who already know what you look like.
Proper cameras are for taking photos that you actually wanna keep, like in this case wedding photos.

If you hire a professional photographer you don't expect him/her to show up with only a mobilphone....

It isn't a traditional wedding. More like a...quote...'redneck' wedding...unquote. The couple cannot afford a real one, she'd rather not go the expense, and it will be done by a Justice of the Peace in Maryland, hence my mentioning that type of camera.

Aaah, that looks really nice Uvah.  You must be a very nice man for her to ask you to be her dad.

And we finally get to see what you look like.    Have a great long weekend.

"Taking their vows. Wasn't much of a chapel. My living room is larger. He he"

 

it's not the size of the room... it's the amount of love in the room that counts.... you did good... must have been a thrill to be thought of so much.... 

nice going Uvah...
