Flash and Weddings





















One of the biggest challenges when shooting a wedding is how to use flash effectively. We have many techniques. Here we see Stella shooting with her Canon Speedlight fitted with a Gary Fong Lightsphere. The Lightsphere has an amazing tendency to distribute light evenly ensuring a well balanced exposure. Note the dome in Stella's hand (above right) . It is used to cap the flash in the absence of a low ceiling. Just one of our tools of the trade.
