Behind The Lens

Location

Taken in San Diego, California, it was the moment just before she arrived at the wedding venue.

Time

It was 3 p.m in June, the wedding was scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. so the anticipation was growing.

Lighting

It was one of those times when everything just works, I just asked Alex to lean a little against the door and that was it!

Equipment

Canon 6D with a 25-105mm

Inspiration

This was just after she prayed with the ministers and right before the ceremony started, so I tought it was a great momento of calm and anticipation for what was to come.

Editing

Very simple color and temperature adjustment.

In my camera bag

Canon 6D with 3 lenses, a 24-105 mm, a 50 mm and a 17-40 mm. A couple of 600 ex speedlites and thats it!

Feedback

For me capturing weddings is simply just documenting what is happenning vs. producing a shot. When i showed this picture to my client she remembered exactly what she was feeling and thinking at that moment, and you just can´t create that sort of emotional link to a photo when you are the one telling everyone what to do or how to pose.
