The Wedding with a Tornado...

Hello!

I have just entered the wedding photography business, and what a way to start! My very first wedding had a tornado, followed by a power failure for the entire night, damaged cars from fallen trees, down power lines, and thankfully a very flexible couple!

Since the power was out the entire night, I was super thankful I bought a video light! Not only did it provide the only light in the venue, but it allowed me to focus during the dances. I only had two light stands, and set up the video light in the corner and a speed light in the opposite corner. My other speed light was on my second camera on my hip. I was shooting with my main camera with the transmitter and a 50mm 1.8 lens. I was aiming the light on my hip in the direction I needed as I moved. This was definitely a wonderful learning experience!!!

I would love your critique! I would post photos on here, however my computer is acting up or isn't connecting well with the site. Please take a look on my blog at http://www.kristendphotography.com/blog/2015/4/jordan-gray--wedding-in-d....

Thank you!

Kristen
