it is a strange instinct that those photographers will just turn and snap at that 2 person fighting like they are witnessing some historical moments.

Too funny! How dare they throw that camera equipment around like that! I did see some pieces flying, but I am amazed that they mostly stayed in one piece, like the video camera towards the end. Nothing visibly broke! (Maybe the lens is history, though) They seemed to just bounce.

Hi Cathy,
yes it looks like a little bit faked, but i don't want to try it out with my Nikon D3X and my 2.8/70-200mm ;D

Too funny. This is why it's so much safer to be an illustrator.

So I guess the guy left with the video camera shooting all this came out the hero in this story?  Only one left to shoot the wedding?

So, who was the guy shooting over the shoulder I wonder.  Was he hired by the bride?  I usually just live with the over-the-shoulder shooters (I do a lot of team sports).   I had a minor freak once at a dance studio when the moms kept on using their little cameras over my shoulder. Usually I blow it off, but a few of my lights were slaved and they would fire over and over.  Usually parents aren't even allowed in the room, but this place was a huge cavern.  My strobes would fire even when parents took photos at the other end of the room, so the ones that came up and took a shot over my shoulder felt my wrath!   Didn't break out into a fight though.

I think I heard the one guy say "iStock aren't that bad of comrades". And, well, you saw the rest of it.

I don't get it , why are there two brides ?
Are the two men in the black shirts on the same team
If they are I'd be looking for a different person to back me up next time I got in a brawl.

I'm guessing it was a popular photography spot for brides to have photos taken so there were several couples there.

I don't get it either!

Isn't the man in black in the initial fight the photo/videographer ? If so, why would he wreck the third man's camera after getting his own smashed?  ??? ???

Perhaps because it's illegal to wave your pen*s in the air in public?
