My Dad was a fanatical camera buff, obnoxiously so
. He brought his camera equipment everywhere, including to my cousins' wedding
. They certainly wouldn't have kicked him out. He was their beloved uncle and they knew how much he loved taking pictures, obnoxiously so. The wedding photographer, of course, was not pleased.
Turns out it was a lucky thing my Dad was so obnoxious about being an amateur photographer because the professional photographer's pictures turned out like....one of the words we ban here. My cousins were grateful that they did end up with plenty of good photos, thanks to my photo bug Dad.
