I wasn’t able to come close by during the ceremony so I brought my basketball lens — a canon 300 2. 8 is lens.  Shooting far away so that no one can hear shutter sound.  It would have been perfect if my second shooter (David) wasn’t there.  But he was wearing completely black suit.  With 300 2.8 is lens. I can take very tight shots like bride and groom holding hands, kisses, ring exchange wedding photos from far way.

I often use remote camera for weddings.  I have 5 cameras I can use.  Why not use one or two during wedding?  But before I do this, I make sure to tell bride and groom as well as wedding officiant before the ceremony.  I could place multiple remote camera just like I cover NBA games but I wanted to keep it simple.  Just one remote camera behind bride and groom.  For remote, I placed a Canon 1D Mark III with a 15 2.8 fisheye lens on a high tech battery stand, triggered by pocket wizard multimax.

Here’s my remote camera (bottom left) during the wedding ceremony.

For bridesmaids & groomsmen portraits, I light them with Elinchrom Quadra Ranger .  This little beauty is perfect size for me and works great outdoor.  I wanted dramatic image with church background.  I was using genus 77m fader ND filter to control ambient & flash light.

For the bride and groom formal portraits, I wanted to feature gorgeous stained glass behind them.  Minimal posing directions in this wedding photos.

Here’s some of my favorite Christina getting ready photos.

Here’s some of the reception photos from the day.

I like to use longer lens to capture moments like this.  Shot with canon 85 1.2 in available light.

Marlena & Kris looked so happy !Wedding formal portrait is one of my favorite part

My second shooter, David already left to take picture of reception details.  I had to pack up and carry lest of the gear with me.

Can’t complaining since he captured the photo above

The reception was at the Old San Francisco Steakhouse.

Absolutely loved the interior and exterior details (hint: check out water falls)

I had to pull fisheye lens to pull images like this.

Had to shot MF on this image since  it was too dark.  Fisheye has such a short hyper focal length that manual focus wasn’t too difficult.

Congratulations Marlena & Kris. It was such an honor to photograph you guys!

Available light wasn’t too good.  I ended up using one 580 EX II as a kicker light to shape her body and also light up her face just a little. Bridal photos were shot with Canon 85 1.2 for shallow depth of field.  There’s a lot of nice places to photograph bride and groom’s portrait here in San Antonio and Landa Park is by far one of my favorite place to shoot.  I really liked to see Marlena’s bridal photos displaced at the reception on a wedding day and comment I was getting from the guest were priceless.  Thanks again for having us for wedding photographer~
