Description + What an amazing wedding!! Jensey and I had the pleasure of photographing Jessie & Rob last week (01-20) and we couldn't be happier with the results. It's funny what a good location and a great client/photographer relationship can do!

+ After every ceremony, we like to have a little alone time with our couples. They're still on that newlywed high and seem extra determined to make it show in the photos. So I told them to kiss and let the flash, sky, and camera do the rest! (Go see Jessie getting ready .)

+ Shot with a Canon 30D, Canon 15mm f2.8 fisheye, and 550ex flash remotely triggered by the on-camera 580ex flash. (The 550 was on a lightstand off to my right.) Photoshop editing was just color enhancement and a bit of sky burning to make it reallly pop!

+ Enjoy!

The wide angle effect is pricless and the slanted composition with a wedding shot is not normal- gutsy you are! yet it turned out wonderful

My current project for class is using flash- any tips?

I know I'm late with this, so I hope your flash usage has worked well. I honestly don't have much to suggest anyways. I practice a lot to see what works and aren't yet good enough to 'teach' anything about it.

achfoo In reply to MJWRIGHT [2007-02-25 06:28:03 +0000 UTC]

Depends on your needs, but if you're looking for professional grade flexibility and features, the 30D wins hands down.

im sure there isnt much i could say about this that hasnt already been said, but i will say that that is one of the most romantic wedding photos ive ever seen. and really, thats what its all about at the end of the day, capturing the most beautiful thing, the love between the couple.

i absolutely love this shot nate.. i'm digging the photojournalistic approach with the horizon line and the lower camera angle works well also.. great exposure, and the sky looks amazing! i'm assuming you burned in the grass a bit too? definitely helps draw the eyes into the maing subject. great work (as always hehe)

achfoo In reply to ritzcrackaa [2007-03-11 03:50:18 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, Mike! I don't recall during much burning (mostly did so in the sky), but I definitely used the Camera Raw vignette. (After looking at the photo again, yes, I guess I did burn or even paint the grass. Duh!)

Amazing shot! Just how the background is so powerful yet the couple is lit perfectly and such a unconventional angle, which makes this so powerful.

When I saw this on the DA main page as a little thumbnail, at first sight I thought the bride had wings. The clouds played a little trick on me. Beautiful picture.
