Great in any light

Loved getting this sweet expression on Aaron’s face as Kassie made her way up the aisle to meet him :) 🌿 One of the challenges I face every weekend is making sure that I’m delivering great photos no matter the weather conditions. Harsh afternoon light, shooting in full sun is by far the most difficult thing for me to deal with. Bright sunlight on someone’s face looks awful (blown highlights & spotty over exposure) so the logical thing to do is to either use a full flash or underexpose so no detail is lost in the face. The problem is that sometimes, a flash won’t reach my couple if I’m standing too far away or a choice to underexpose results in loss of shadow details in everything other than my couples faces. This is where my light touch approach to editing comes in and why I believe it’s crucial to shoot in a RAW file format. It’s actually not that difficult to recover those shadows such the ones in shown this photograph in Lightroom so if fill flash isn’t an option, a stop of underexposure works out just fine in post. It’s a quick & easy fix that takes seconds to correct as long as the fundamentals of the initial capture were followed. :) . . . . . #2020bride #2019engaged #mountainphotography #leatherwoodmountainsresort #leatherwoodmountainswedding #outdoorwedding #outdoorweddingphotography #ncweddingphotographer #ncweddingphotography #silvercordeventphotography #weddingphotography #ncresortwedding #outdoorweddingphotos #weddinginspiration #raleighnc #raleighweddingphotographer #canon5ds #canonusa
