Waiting game

Last week I spent five evenings at Rexall Place shooting the Canadian Curling Trials.
Curling is not my favourite thing to shoot, but after a few days a rhythm emerges and it becomes a waiting game for the best pictures from a three hour match.
I think this is what sets photographers from docweddings apart from other wedding photographers. Good pictures take time, and waiting for them to happen is part of that.
Too often I see wedding photographers rush people into poses and try to maximize their time with as many mundane photos as possible. I think it is always better to have fewer, but better images.
