In his arms

After the ceremony we were taking photos are the iron shore. There was an area of sand which we wanted to shoot in, but as seen in this photo, it was a bit of a rough walk to get into. The Groom, being the gentleman he is, picked up the Bride and carried her over the rough area.

Strobist Information: Canon 5D Mark II, 85mm f/1.2L and SB900 through a white umbrella using Pocket Wizards

In this photo shoot we decided to really go all out with the make-up. I also tried something different and created a really shallow depth of field (right eye sharp, left eye blurry). Strobist info: Shot in the studio with a Canon 5D Mark II, 85mm 1.2/L lens, Pocket Wizard and Alien Bee 1600 and 800.

Opposites

We were originally photographing Liz (the model on the left) when I asked fellow photographer Janet to join Liz. The two of them really worked well together with a great result. We were in the studio using Alien Bees, Pocket Wizards and my 5D Mark II.

This was a great photo shoot. Anna was wonderful and very cooperative. Strobist info: Canon 5D MkII and 24mm f/1.4L II USM in the studio with an Alien Bee AB800 camera left and above the model on a boom shot through a Westcott white umbrella. An AB1600 camera right with a Paul Bluff foldable Octabox and a Nikon SB900 camera right, high (approximately 7′) and close to the backdrop aimed at the model.

Both the AB800 and AB1600 were at 1/16 with a 7" Silver Field Reflector.

I love the expressions on Wil’s and Olivia’s faces. I also find the red background with the chain link fence really makes this photo pop. This photo was taken between photographing the models. Wil is a photographer who was also shooting and Olivia was the make-up artist for the photo shoot. This was taken in the studio with Alien Bees.
