(LOC: EXT - CHURCHYARD - DAY)
WE SEE AN ESTABLISHING SHOT OF A CHURCH.
WE HEAR THE BELLS RINGING. A WEDDING HAS TAKEN PLACE
WE SEE A TIGHT HEAD SHOT OF A BRIDE AND GROOM, CONFETTI IN THEIR HAIR
WE SEE THE FLASHES OF A CAMERA REFLECTED IN THEIR FACES. THEY ARE HAVING THEIR PHOTOGRAPHS
TAKEN
THEY PAUSE BETWEEN EACH LINE OF DIALOGUE TO SMILE, POSE AND HAVE THEIR PICTURE TAKEN
GROOM
Happy, darling?
CAMERA FLASH
BRIDE
Oh, yes, darling.
CAMERA FLASH
GROOM
Has it been perfect for you, my love?
CAMERA FLASH
BRIDE
Perfect, darling. One thing, though…
CAMERA FLASH
GROOM
What's that?
CAMERA FLASH
BRIDE
Where did you get the photographer?
GROOM
Friend of a friend. (Whispers) Only fifty quid. Saved a fortune.
CAMERA FLASH
BRIDE
What does he do, normally?
GROOM
He's a photographer! Works at the police station. Why do you ask?
BRIDE
Oh…no reason…
THE CAMERA PULLS BACK TO REVEAL A FULL-LENGTH SHOT OF THE BRIDE AND GROOM
ONLY, THEY ARE LYING ON THE FLOOR.
THE PHOTOGRAPHER IS TAKING PICTURES OF THEM USING FORENSIC EQUIPMENT
THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S ASSISTANT IS DRAWING A CHALK OUTLINE AROUND THEIR BODIES.
PHOTOGRAPHER
…And smile!
