This shot was taken right outside the wedding venue, as the couple arrived from their ceremony. Their friends stood in front of the car with phone flashlights turned on, creating a cinematic and atmospheric scene. I positioned myself in the back seat to capture this perspective and the couple’s raw emotions in the foreground. The gear used was a Canon EOS R6 Mark II with a 28mm lens. Settings: f/2.0, 1/160s, ISO 2000. The main challenge was controlling high ISO and sharpness in such a spontaneous night scene—but the friends’ phone lights transformed into a unique stage for this moment.

Really like this shot, well done
Thanks❤️
Imagine angling that mirror to see one or both of them! Love the use of phone flashes!
I wanted to adjust the mirror… but it was fixed and glued in place in this vintage car… but great point!
Next car!
Love the concept. For the execution: I wish the blurred was the other way around. Great use of the phone flashlight though.
Thanks a lot for your feedback! 🙏
That is a fun shot! Great concept!
