Our latest how it was done photo

January 31, 2017  •  Leave a Comment
The latest in our "How it was done" series. Another church scene. One of our favorites from Bridgitte and Nathans wedding. This was available light. In most churches we don't use flash to be more discrete. There was a lot of light coming in from the left and right. The dark stained glass made for a wonderful background. SS1/200 ISO 2500 F2.8 H...

Here are a few of our favorite photos from recent we...
