I've shot a few millitary funerals now, it doesn't get easier. We try our best to respect the families and friends that are grieving but I always feel a bit like we're intruding. In fact, for this particular funeral we were told that the media were to be banned from the funeral. This usually means that media are not allowed in the church. On the public street, that's a different story. The military had PR peeps there to answer our questions and we were invited to shoot the procession but the family did not want to be interviewed
