wedding photography

Had the pleasure to photograph Jeremy and Elizabeth's wedding this past weekend. I started out with Jeremy and the guys at the hotel. I like to use natural one directional light source whenever possible. So was the case here. I took all the photos of the guys in this spot.

I met the girls and Elizabeth at the A La Carte Pavillion in Tampa after finishing up with the men. Again I looked for a one directional light source. All this natural light would lead you to believe that I never use flash. Oh contrair, I use flash extensively. The photo below of the dining room was taken with 3 flashes and available light. Thank goodness for radio controlled flashes. One was on camera to light the tables in the front. One was held by my assistant to the left to light the tables near the background. Another was on a stand to the right of the room.

The dining room photo was taken with a fisheye lens. Love my fisheye.

Sam and Brittany's wedding

This past Saturday I photographed Sam and Brittany's wedding. Great couple and family, terrific locations, and a lot of dancing made for terrific photo opportunities.









Church was huge so for a few shots I used a 15mm fisheye lens to capture all of it. I use the Canon 5D and 5D Mark II which have a full size sensor so nothing is cropped out.















Photo of Sam before wedding using existing light. The photo of Brittany after the ceremony was taken with flash on camera and another off camera held by my trusty assistant.
















Lots of dancing and fun photos























This coming Saturday I have a wedding and we'll be taking some photos at Phillipe Park
