The Bride and her Father

So, I will try not to post too many wedding pictures but this is what I have a lot of access to right now. Two weekends ago I shot this picture as the bride was walking down the isle with her father. In general this time at a wedding is such an incredible and moving moment. The father, walking his little girl down the isle, preparing to give her away to the man of her dreams. I thought this specific moment was amazing the way the sun created some flare and the backlight added to the dynamic of the moment.
I love playing with whatever the light in the sky is giving me. Whether it is sun flare or hardly any light at all, creating a silhouette, it all creates such different moods and feelings. I am looking forward to actually understanding how that translates to the stage!

Next weekend I am shooting at a vineyard, so I can't wait to see what I can find with the light down there!
Happy 2nd Blog, Everyone!

  1. I like the flare of light, the effect almost adds this surreal element to the picture. The past getting fuzzier as they move into a new light. I like the symbolism that comes out of this.

  2. Nice image! So much of sunlight is 'crispness' and how we can match that in theatre.
