Kerry & Andrew's Wedding, Part I

My website: Wedding Photographers in Kent

The first half of a selection of images from Kerry and Andrew's wedding at Saltwood Church and Westenhanger Castle on Saturday. The conditions were perfect for photography - please check out their wedding gallery.

HDR (-2, 0, +2), f/5.6, ISO 200, 16mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

A high dynamic range image to start off proceedings. Compare with the image below which is a single exposure.

1/1000, f/5.6, ISO 200, 0 EV, 16mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

1/200, f/1.4, ISO 200, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm f/1.4L

There were a couple of large mirrors in this room which provided the opportunity to play with reflections.

1/160, f/2, ISO 400, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm f/1.4L

Very funky shoes.

1/250, f/2, ISO 200, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm f/1.4L

The bride speaks to her mother for the last time as an unmarried woman.

1/200, f/2.2, ISO 100, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm f/1.4L

The room was beautiful and the light was fantastic but it would have been nice to lose a few items of furniture!

1/400, f/2.2, ISO 100, 1 EV, 35mm f/1.4L

Positive exposure compensation (EC) deals with the brightly-lit background.

1/200, f/3.5, ISO 400, ‒ ²⁄₃ EV, 85mm f/1.2L II

And now with a darker background negative EC safeguards the highlights.

1/320, f/1.4, ISO 200, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm f/1.4L

1/320, f/1.4, ISO 200, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm f/1.4L

The father of the bride sees his daughter in her wedding dress for the first time.

1/400, f/8, ISO 200, ‒ 1 EV, 16mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

1/400, f/5, ISO 200, ‒ ⅓ EV, 35mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

1/2000, f/4, ISO 200, 0 EV, 16mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

1/160, f/2.8, ISO 2500, 0 EV, 200mm, 70-200mm f/2.8L IS

Both the quantity and quality of light in the church were poor. Time to boost the ISO setting.

1/125, f/2.8, ISO 2500, ⅓ EV, 200mm, 70-200mm f/2.8L IS

I had to shoot from the back of the church but I was able to get quite a nice view of the action.

1/125, f/2.8, ISO 2500, ⅓ EV, 200mm, 70-200mm f/2.8L IS

1/125, f/2.8, ISO 2500, ⅓ EV, 35mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

1/1600, f/2.8, ISO 100, ‒ ²⁄₃ EV, 25mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

A fortuitous gust of wind.

1/640, f/2.8, ISO 50, ‒ ⅓ EV, 16mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II

1/640, f/4, ISO 50, ‒ ⅓ EV, 16mm, 16-35mm f/2.8L II
