You could agree to do a few pictures before and after the ceremony. However, as many others are saying, be sure they know you are not professional and that they should not be expecting the same results and service they would get from a professional wedding photographer.

They might also buy a dozen disposable cameras and hand them out to the guests. They might get luck with a few shots.

Well, I wouldn't go that far but we already prioritise on medicine and end of life care for the elderly. We should not be cruel, we just need to be less emotional about decisions.

Should elderly people get as much help as we can give them? Yes absolutely. Should you take money from cancer treatment of children to give a pensioner another month of life? Thats when emotions come into it. When it's a stranger you would likely say no, but if it's your grandmother you may well say yes.

At least they are now the right size again, the small versions just didn't seem right.

I think that is quite true. It seems as if an emotional attachment activates the altruistic nature of humans far more than simple reasoning ever does.

Your dog is not a child, everyone would save their child. The real test would be if a stranger had a gun trained on a child and a dog and told you one was going to die but you had to choose, which would you choose dog or child?
