These boys should get themselves agents. Note the negative exposure compensation (EC).

1/2500, f/1.2, ISO 160, -1 EV, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II

1/160, f/1.4, ISO 1000, -2/3 EV, 35 mm, 35mm f/1.4L

Always worth making sure that everything is secured. Every bride likes to make a memorable entrance but there are limits.

An HDR-like apprearance but a single shot with the sky darkened, and foreground lightened, in Lightroom.

Over a stop of negative EC was required to expose correctly for Natalie.

A young pickpocket in the making!

Schoolgirls together again. Nothing to do with Austin Powers.

1/160, f/2, ISO 1600, 0 EV, -2/3 FEC, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II

A kiss of flash, softened with a Lastolite Apollo. Negative FEC to keep it in check.

1/125, f/1.4, ISO 1600, +2/3, 35 mm, 35mm f/1.4L

Now some candids without flash. There was a real mix of light sources - conversion to B&W sorts this out.

1/160, f/1.4, ISO 1600, +2/3 EV, 35 mm, 35mm f/1.4L

1/100, f/1.4, ISO 1600, +2/3 EV, 35 mm, 35mm f/1.4L

I kept this one in colour to preserve the blue glow on the baby's face.

1/500, f/1.2, ISO 2000, +1/3 EV, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II

1/200, f/1.2, ISO 1600, +1/3 EV, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II

The shallow depth of field of the 85 f/1.2L lens is great in a busy environment.

1/400, f/1.6, ISO 400, -2/3 EV, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II

1/50, f/1.4, ISO 800, 0 EV, 35 mm, 35mm f/1.4L

1/60, f/2.8, ISO 2000, 0 EV, 16 mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

Always worth hydrating before the rigours of the first dance!
