The still-life idea is a good one. I've shot hand-held 35mm pinhole at
weddings but mostly have used altered lens plastic cameras for exactly
that romantic pictorialist feel. I'll scan some images and send the
urls. I only do weddings for people who have seen my other work and
appreciate it. And I always hire a real wedding photographer to get the
shots for the grandparents. My clients are without exception other
people in the co-called creative community.
