This is not exactly a LF question, but I can't think of a more knowledgeable gro up to pose this question to, so please bear with me.
I have gotten roped into shooting a friend's wedding. Since I've always used tr ansparency films for all commercial and personal work, I don't know much at all about color print films.
What film(s) do wedding guys use? I'll probably shoot this on 35mm. Enlargment s are not likely to exceed 8x10. I'm most concerned with achieving soft and nat ural skin tones and holding detail in the white dress while not blocking up foli age.
The last time I shot a wedding--about 30 years ago!--a wedding photographer from my home town told me all the wedding guys send their film to labs that speciali ze in wedding prints. I used a lab he recommended and I was pleasantly surprise d by the overall quality and particularly by the accurate skin tones. Do any of you know if such labs still exist and where I might find one?
