Wedding photography is a blend of genres, sort of a marriage (pun intended) between portrait, street, and occasionally even landscape photography. There’s always a bit of mystery when it comes to lighting, and we need to be ready for anything. In a reception hall, you may dimly chandeliers, bright LEDs, or even pulsating, colorful strobes from the DJ booth. All of these variables, and you may not be able to use flash! What can you do?
