The powerful blast of flash from the iPhone nearly ruined my exposure (not!)

The group shots were challenging - both space and light were limited. Only the ceremony room offered sufficient space but was entirely mirrored on one wall, meaning no bounced flash, and had spotlights in the ceiling, which meant careful placement of people. I had to use what natural light was available - hence ISO 2500!
