As a wedding photographer, I want to turn EVERY wedding day challenge into a positive experience for my couples & their guests. While I might be stressing over where to shoot & how to capture the image with the best light, I never want my CLIENTS to see that!
Rainy wedding days are not-so-great situations for photographers. Combine that with a crowded bridal suite that held little natural light and it can feel impossible!! But remember – my job is to meet a challenge head on & make decisions that will give my couples the BEST wedding images I can deliver!!!
In today’s YouTube video, I’m taking you Behind the Image so show you EXACTLY how I was able to capture a rainy wedding day & turn a not-so-great situation into really BEAUTIFUL portraits!!!
Let me tell you – the 85mm saved the day on this one & in this episode, I break down specific images from the day of & talk lighting, location, composition & so much more!!!
