It was taken with a zoom lens using a technique called "zooming". Take say a
35-80 / f2.8 zoom. Focus one the dog's eyes at the 35mm zoom and use a slow
shutter speed, perhaps a second or more. As the shutter is open turn the
zoom smoothly as far to 80mm as possible without shaking the camera. If the
dog is sitting still, your do not shake the camera and you expose at the
right shutter speed and aperture this is the effect you get. Using a tripod
is virtually a necessity for these kinds of photos.

same time they were throwing their glasses. The photographer used the same
effect to divert the attention to the glasses, but also the bride and groom
were in focus. I think he claimed that it was not manipulated.
