Would you like fries with that wedding photo?

Walking along the promenade on the Pudong side of the Huangpu River in Shanghai a couple of weeks ago I came across a couple having some wedding photos done. In front of a large McDonalds logo. At night.

Macdonalds wedding shoot #2

I’ve not seen these McDonalds kiosks before - the illuminated sign takes up the whole of one side of the kiosk - the building is no bigger than a cube of this size. I saw several of these around Shanghai so perhaps they’re a China special?

Way beyond the limits of little Canon S80 I was carrying, but good fun nevertheless. The second image was just good luck - the photographer’s assistant was holding the off-camera flash and we just happened to both hit the shutter button at the same time.
