Shot in the Dark

Wedding photographers are under tremendous pressure to capture once-in-a-lifetime moments--from the bride's preparations, to the ceremony, to the reception and the exit. They are forced to shoot in low light in every wedding--whether in poorly lit ceremony and reception venues or, later in the day, when the peak lighting has faded. This presents myriad problems and obstacles to achieving beautiful, artfully executed images of the events of the wedding day. In this book, popular photoeducator Brett Florens and contributors provide digital photo techniques and lighting solutions--from reflectors, to LED lights, to flash--that will help you ensure that no important image is lost to poor light or exposure concerns. From choosing and using the best camera settings to scouting locations with interesting, workable light, to creating gorgeous artistic effects, this book provides the skills you need to get THE shot at every stage of the wedding and in any locale.
