There is a problem there too. If you shoot with a longer lens, then
you add 10lbs to the bride and her mom. That couldn't be a good thing.
If you keep the camera close but low enough for the participants to
see over them, then you would be shooting up their hairy noses,
and showing off their double chins. Bottom line, It's a hard game to win.
