Location
I shot this in the "bridal" room of a churchTime
Image was captured early afternoonLighting
This was a natural lighting shot. There were some nice windows near the bride. I closed the sheer white curtains to avoid hot spots and glare.Equipment
This was shot with my Nikon D7100 with my 17-55 2.8 lens . No flash. I'm not a fan of flashInspiration
I just happened to glance at the bride and noticed her expression, and wondered what she must be thinking.Editing
I corrected the white balance prior to changing the image to B&W. I also went for the tight crop.In my camera bag
Nikon D7100 , Nikon 17-55 2.8 , Nikon 35 mm prime and Yonguno Speedlite . I also carry my old Nikon D5100 as a back-up. I'm saving for that dream FX body and lenses.Feedback
When I shoot I try to capture emotion. While most of my work is posed portrait photography I really prefer to capture the moments that create emotion when viewed.
