Kirsty and Nick's Wedding day at {Hagley Hall} Stourbridge

Kirsty & Nick had predicted that their wedding day would sunny frosty and crisp. boy they were absolutely spot on, Saturday 14th of January sure was a gorgeous day with loads of sun, and of course a touch of frost. The blue skies lasted all day, so did this stunning wedding. Kirsty and Nick enjoyed their wedding preshoot in October last year and I knew that their wedding day was going to be delight to shoot. THe venue was the stately Hagley Hall,nr Stourbridge. Set in 350 acres of beautiful landscaped parkland with stunning views this country house has been privately owned for over 250 years and is the home of the 12 Viscount Cobham, a perfect venue for a perfect couple. Here is just a glimpse of the day, please enjoy. further images will be published later this month.

Playing with {Speedlights}

Hi Guys
One night last week I was trying to see how I could light a subject or subjects sitting at a table during a wedding or other, these images are not tech perfect and I think the idea needs to be thought out a little more.
To improve the hard light from the speed light ( Nikon SB900} set to 1/4 power and covered it with a white cotten table napkin, the ones you find in a restaurant, this diffused the light and made for a better more softer light. The exposure was for the ambient light which was predominately Tungsten, camera on AWB shutter set at 10th sec ( Flash Rear shutter mode) this enabled to ambient light a chance to get in the frame To keep the speedlight power in check I used a small aperture F10, perfect.
The shot was hand held so a little softness focus was experienced, however if I was shooting for real I would consider the use of a mono, or tripod, The images where processed via photo mechanic, and post produced in LR3.  Camera, Nikon D3s, 10th sec f10  at 400 iso. Will try to use the technique on my next wedding, if the opportunity arrises of course. Any comments greatly appreciated.
