Exposure compensation (EC) is required since the image is predominantly dark-toned.

The quality of light in the ceremony room was poor, with multiple light sources of different colour temperatures introducing a range of colour casts. The quantity of light was also low, apart from a small window letting in strong daylight.

I used flash for some of the shots during the ceremony, which is something I rarely do, to get a good light source directly onto their faces.

Unfortunately, it started to rain after the ceremony but I was able to grab this nice candid as the rain drops started to descend.

Tina and Michael are ex-Army so rain wasn't going to put them off - out with the brollies! The best man kindly held an umbrella over me and my kit.

1/1000, f/1.2, ISO 100, -4/3 EV, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II
Again, notice the negative EC. If I'd let the camera set the exposure a lot of Tina's dress (which had an iridiscent sheen ie highly reflective) would have been overexposed.

Less EC required here due to the bright background.
1/1250, f/1.2, ISO 100, -5/3 EV, 85 mm, 85mm f/1.2L II
Look at the EC on this one. I started with only -1 and could see highlights being blown.

Ideally I'd have used a kiss of flash with this one but the car's ceiling was so low I couldn't squeeze in with my flash kit! If there'd been more time I would have popped an ST-E2 on the camera and held the flash in the other hand.

I'm sure a lot of purists would point out that their feet are cropped off in this shot. I didn't have the space to keep them in frame for all the shots that I took - for the one above I was stuck in the corner of the room. I got plenty of shots with them and all their limbs intact, but I decided to include this one because I really loved the expression on Tina's face. I always favour the emotional content of a shot rather than those that follow the 'rules'. They are, after all, guidelines not tramlines!
