Wedding photographer

 * Reason:We have a number of photos taken by photographers in wedding photography, but this is the only one that shows the photographer's process. As such, its encyclopedic value is very high.
 * Articles this image appears in:Wedding photography

 * Oppose Sorry, but I don't really see the enc in this: It's a rehearsal, the equipment is not very visible - I don't see anything of a "process" here... I'd much prefer a pic of a wedding photographer working in his/her studio, with all the paraphernalia, including studio flash units & 'brellas. --Janke | Talk 19:48, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Its not very educational from an off camera lighting perspective since none of that gear is visible (and yet is important to the final result). Noodle snacks (talk) 23:39, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per both above -- MakE  shout! 04:05, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Per above. Also disappointing sharpness given the camera and lens specs (also the EXIF doesn't show any excuses...) --Fir0002 04:12, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Firstly if it's depicting wedding photography,I would have thought a bridegroom would be necessary!I would prefer to see the trappings of the wedding too-a church,guests,confetti,bridesmaids,perhaps a vicar.It would be easy to show the process of them taking the photo with all these included.This regrettably does not show a wedding photograph-it shows a photographer with a model in a bridal gown.

 * I guess you're not married or at least haven't been through the wedding photography experience. When one has wedding photographs taken, there are pictures of the bride and groom together, pictures of just the groom, pictures of just the bride, and a whole slew of other types of pictures, not necessarily during the service itself.  howcheng  {chat} 16:41, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
