A wedding just isn't complete... - 07-26-2009, 06:56 AM


So it was a 14 person wedding party, 450 guests, and at least 10 hours worth of shooting time (and I left early to rest for my 'joe' job, haven't a clue what time the SIL got out of there!) Started at the reception hall, went to the church, then back to the reception hall. Thought I had seen it, shot it all.... but then I decided to leave, and thats when it happened!!!

"Excuse me sir... excuse me ma'am.... excuse me ma'am" I said as I tried to make my way through the mass of people and head to the door. And there it was, and it was certainly not a 'bump' in passing.

Oh NOOOOO! It was a FULL FLEDGED CUPPED HAND GRAB AT MY MANHOOD!

Apparently she didn't realize I could have been her grandson (insert cougar roar here!), and she certainly wasn't a shy person..... if she only knew....

Maybe it was the 9mm tucked inside your pants that got her excited ?

Since all the guests were completely wasted, nothing surprised me. I left at 10:45 and they had gone through 14 kegs! I had some guy rubbing my behind while shooting at the end of my 12 hour day. I was about to turn around and slap him but he was kinda cute! haha!!!

I can't decide if you are Complaining or Bragging.
