Behind The Lens

Location

I took this image at the Canaan Valley Resort in West Virginia. The Bride, Father of the Bride and Made of Honor who is also the bride's twin sister rode the chair lift up to the ceremony site at the top of the mountain.

Time

Late afternoon.

Lighting

It was a nice overcast day which made the light nice and even.

Equipment

Nikon D800 with a Nikon 70-200mm.

Inspiration

I rode in the chair in front of the Bride and her family. I didn't talk to them entire way up to the top because I wanted to capture some genuine, candid interaction between them. The Father of the Bride was sharing a great moment with his daughters before their lives would change forever.

Editing

Color correction in Lightroom CC.

In my camera bag

Nikon D800, Nikon 7100, Nikon 70-200mm F/2.8, Nikon 16-35mm F/4, Sigma 35mm F/1.4, Nikon SB-910, Manfroto 190PROCX4 Tripod, Nikon MC-36A, Lee Big Stopper, B+W CP Filter Pocketwizards Plus III (x2).

Feedback

To campture the best candid moments I put my clients in the best light possible and then just sit back an capture the natural interaction.
