videography photography for srilanka weddings
From the old days to today, photograpy is important in the life of all human.Tamil people kept all their wedding photos framed and hanging on the walls of their homes, 10 years back along with the framed greetings which were presented to them on the wedding day. The black and white photos can survive the sun light and chemical reactions in the atmosphere, up to 100 years, while the colour can't, because of this many lost their color wedding photos. Now a days they keep just one of it on the table framed or blocked.
In the old days in wedding there were no videography. It came in the 80's. In a traditional wedding all small children are behind the Cameraman, to collect the burnt flash bulb from each film shot. The winner will take the hot bulb and run away and to find there is nothing just plastic covered burnt bulb, just put it on the ground and crack it and see the boken glasses, then throw it away. But it was a big game for children in those wedding.
Then came the electronic flsh, and people wondered how a burnt flsh is working again, and the children too lost their curiosity of the photography in the wedding as there is no more hot hot burnt bulbs. Instead of the bulb, they took their time to showering "paneer water" on the arriving visitors head (many believed the paneer water will make their black hair to turn white, and they would beg the small ones not to spray on them), giving sandalwood, beatle, soft drinks and so on.
Now most of the things are changed, In weddings children too with expensive dress have to sit and watch the functi on. If there is a young girl under the age of 10,oh,she must become a flower girl. Carrying a flower basket and following then standing the whole ceremony.
