Camera Settings
The low-down nitty gritty! Here are some ‘This is How’ pieces by our TiR members that all contain the specific camera settings they used for each wedding photography capture:
This Is How: ‘The Flag Bearers’ by Nikola Smernic
An honour to have the fantastic Nikola Smernic on the TiR blog today to tell us all about how he got this Reportage Award-winning image (in Collection Three). Brilliant insights into the importance of capturing the ‘in-between’ moments of a wedding day, making the most of light sources, positioning, capturing traditions, as well as lens choice and full settings. Thanks so much, Nikola; an amazing capture and brilliant read!
This Is How: ‘The Wedding Singer’ by Anthony Lyons
It’s always fascinating to hear how our TiR members capture their fantastic images, and today is no exception, as we have the fab Anthony Lyons telling us all! Great insights on his lens of choice for this particular capture – and why it’s more than OK to use a zoom! – utilising the available light to his advantage, his thought process about he wanted the final image to look, and detail on his post-production (including a before/after comparison).
This Is How: ‘Making An Entrance’ by Pete Henderson
Excited to have the brilliant Pete Henderson on the site today, talking to us about how he got this great wedding breakfast entrance capture (a part of the day that can be very difficult indeed to capture so creatively). A super-interesting post, with Pete sharing great insights into balancing the capture of atmosphere/available light, with wanting to make his bride and groom stand out by using flash, great tips on his exact flash setup, pre-focusing, patience, post production, as well as a great little tip about having a ‘backup plan’ for moments like this. A brilliant read!
This Is How: ‘Pure Ecstasy Without A Pill’ by Chio Garcia
Thrilled to have the fab Mexico-based This is Reportage member Chio Garcia on the site today, to tell us all about this emotional capture of hers. Chio talks not only about how she got this image, but also her many ‘whys’ about why she documents weddings – thoughts and sentiments which I know many wedding photographers throughout the world will wholeheartedly agree with. Thanks so much, Chio!
This Is How: ‘Party is Over’ by Pedro Bento
Really thrilled that the fab Pedro Bento has told us all about how he got this stunning Reportage Award from Collection Two today; I adore this image so much! What I think is especially interesting, is to hear how Pedro’s own personal and family life was a major factor in him getting this capture…read on to find out more:
