weddings and softboxes


 
 
Next Saturday I am shooting my third wedding. The first two were reluctant favors for friends of friends. I recently purchased a new flash (Nikon SB-600) with a bracket, and a on flash softbox. All three of these items were not used in the first few weddings (had a very basic flash at the time). Should I be using the soft box in all situations? Is there anything that I need to be careful of when using it? I have posted some of the wedding pics in my gallery, and would appreciate any critque. Thanks!

  I looked at your pics.
I would recommend a larger format camera when shooting weddings.
Thats just my opinion.

  Although I shoot weddings using a MF camera, and would recommend one for weddings, it doesn't mean you can't do it with a 35mm. Yes, use your softbox in all situations. It will soften the flash.
