I love the first and last shots Rhys. Nice work as well Russinating :)

I really enjoyed the "capture the moment" aspect of wedding photography, as soon as it got to formal shots though my interest waned. As for group shots, horrid! Ultimately I don't enjoy post processing either so wedding photography isn't for me :(

I think 36 was the highest number that I was given.... "that is going to be difficult" was along the lines of how I replied :(
