It is very interesting to see how he approaches each angle and he also narrates it to walk us through his techniques:

The video above shows the footage from his GoPro along with photos of the wedding and more from a typical day in the life of a wedding photographer. Includes an explanation on how he setup a rig in order to mount the video camera.

    Excelent work! Love all the details!
    Dovolím si kousek v češtině – fotky ze svateb nemám upřímně moc ráda, připadají mi většinou dost kýčovité. Vaše práce je ale vkusná, nápaditá a nepostrádá šmrnc! Jen tak dál!
