Marvelous!  During my brief (and unmentionable) stint working in a wedding 
studio when I was in high school, I shot a wedding in a very small town in 
deep rural Illinois (Tuscola or some such place).  I spent nearly four 
hours with the wedding party, and the bride simply could not stop 
crying.  Four hours!  I didn't think that it was humanly possible to weep 
without pause for four hours, but she did--through the ceremony, through 
the reception, unreal.  I didn't get a single useable image of her--had to 
hand it over to the "pro," who, in turn, had to schedule a studio 
shoot--some weeks later.  *That* was a "depressed" woman.
