Can you tell me where you mounted the camera and its name?
Was this all natural light
Did you use the speedlight ?
Nice Shots. Are you using Flash inside at any time during the wedding or when they were entering?
I'm curious if you used a light or not
Thanks for this tutorial
This is an amazing tutorial
Using tje 85mm seemed to get you close enough for this wedding but I really do prefer my 70-200 for more variety. I just slow my shutter speed which works out so long as they are sitting or standing still which for a long ceremony, that's all they pretty much do. Sit there.
The biggest thing I struggle with “in certain situations” is white balance. Even editing in Lightroom it’s hard to get each photo 100% in sync as some vary so you can’t set them all to say 3200k or 3400k
Can you share camera settings and if flash was used on or off camera? Ty
good job, nice color on the pictures, how do you color grade? presets ?
You have quite big churches. here in Sweden, churches are usually much smaller and 85mm focal length rarely works. it usually gets too tight with the framing.
Nice coverage, Jason. Were all of the shots "available light"?
Hi Jason, I am from Brazil and weddings are almost the same … However, I see many YouTube videos (like yours) and all of them the photographer is never in the middle of the aisle .. The shots of all entrance (groom, bride, parents etc) are always shot ´sideways´ and never in the center of the aisle … is it prohibited to stay in the center of the church (basically in front of the pastor / priest etc)?
