I remember this wedding very well because it was one of the hottest days of the summer in Ottawa. We were sweating bullets on this day. It was a great time though. The church was a beautiful cathedral in the heart of Ottawa (the name slips my mind). After the ceremony the bridal party all had bubbles and as the bride and groom exited they all showered them with bubbles. That’s when I got the first shot. I got low so I could catch the sunlight shining through the bubbles. That is one of my favorite wedding shots in my portfolio.
The second shot was taken at the wedding reception in a banquet hall here in Ottawa (the name also slips my mind), these two were having a blast together and they made my job easy by just having fun together. This shot was totally candid. I had to put my ISO up a bit so I could increase my shutter speed to freeze the motion without getting too much motion blur. My aperture was open at 2.8 to let in as much ambient light as possible and then I used a flash at around 1/2 power to help freeze the motion more.
Thanks Yves and Rachelle, I had a great time at your wedding!
