After weighing the various options (and knowing my brother as I do) he would be insulted if I don't let him do the wedding a primary. He has done others for friends and has taken it in stride. He'll shoot primarily digital, so the mistake factor will be slight (plus he'll also shoot Hassy , I'm sure, as he just bought one now that they are affordable used). The wedding is outdoors at Lakeside resort on Lake Erie, so it will be pretty informal. I was thinking a KEH gift certificate. (BTW, his wife is doing music and daughter is flower girl -- how's that for keeping it in the family) Rob McClure On Jul 5, 2006, at 9:25 PM, Kenneth Frazier wrote: > > On Jul 5, 2006, at 9:16 PM, Ric Carter wrote: > >> Let your brother do just what he asked -- shoot photos as a gift to >> the bride.
