The couple would have done all their studio posed shots and they need somebody to photograph their ceremony and reception. There will be two friends covering this event. Photographer #1 is somebody I know and we plan to work together. He will be using the Nikon F90 with a bagful of Nikkors. I think it will be nice to complement with my Leica M6. My leicas are meant to be used and I intend to exploit the full potential of Leica cameras and optics whenever I can! Firstly, it this a good idea (i.e. using an M6 to cover a wedding ceremony and reception)? If it is, what are the lenses that I should bring along? I plan to use Kodak EGP 400 film. Are there any special peculiarities associated with wedding photography with a Leica M camera that I should know about? Your experiences will be most appreciated. Ta. Dan Khong
