The groom mid-speech, notes in hand, and the whole top table laughing along. This angle earns its place because it holds the speaker and his audience in one frame — you see the joke and its effect simultaneously. I'd positioned for it before he stood up, using my longer lens, canon 70 to 200mm to get into the action, as I do for every speech, having quietly checked the running order with the best man. Preparation is invisible in good wedding photography, but it's everywhere. He'd worried about this speech, as grooms do. The faces around him tell you exactly how those worries worked out.
