I take thousands of photos, and when I return from a trip, etc, I download them to the desktop computer, delete the duplicates selecting the best for exposure, lighting, and so on. Them I create a folder and name for the year, dash, month and date and an small description(example 2017-0624TriptoPA). Then I copy these folder to 2 diferent (2 TB Hard drives ) to archive them. I can always retrieve these images, and have never lost any. With the images in my desktop, after manipulating the ones I select, will make a book of any trip, I use Shutterfly and my favorite book size is 12x12. I may print 2 or three images for my office or home wall. The coffee table books are a nice way to condense a trip and and a conversation piece for friends and family without boring them.
Run away from this assignment unless you have done lots of weddings. Attend the Wedding drink and eat.

Great explanation. I like to shoot RAW and have more control on my images.
As a retired professional, my suggestion is : Pay a seasoned wedding photographer to do it, and enjoy the wedding. Weddings are not as easy as it looks, and you are the grandmother.
This is my frank suggestion talking from experience.
These are all excellent shots. Congratulations.
Do not drink the water!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remember: It is never the Camera, it is the person behind the Camera. If you do not see the shot, a $4500 Camera is not going to help you. The sky is the limit in what you can spend for new equipment, but in 90 % of the cases the camera is not going to help you, it is only a tool. I prefer to buy equipment produce by companies that have a lifetime experience with PHOTOGRAPHY equipment, rather than TV's and audio equipment. But then, that is me that made a GOOD living with my Photography skills for over 40 years. This morning I went to the Post Office to mail a package, and I saw a line of cars in the opposite direction behind a very shinny FERRARI, being push by 3 people to get into the Post Office parking. I am sure he paid a lot of money for it but that did not help him much.
Love this shot. Needs a little manipulation to make it outstanding, but all the elements are there.
Very nice sharp saturated shots. Congrats. Did you used a tripod?
They will make great paper weigths.
Buy yourself a Monopod, it will help you with your sport shots.
I have been in all those places, the Canon "L" 24-105 mm is my favorite, also the Canon "L" 17-40 mm is a good lens to have. I use a full frame Canon 5d MK III with them. I own the 28-300 L mm
which is my favorite BUT heavy and most of the times stays in the Motorhome. This year we are traveling to that area to see what we missed.
I prefer the Canon "L" lenses for their quality, you pay more but you get what you pay for. (Is like mounting recaps tires in your Lexus).
