When Amorina and I talked about what she wanted in her wedding photography package she said she wanted natural, candid moments. That’s why she booked me. But I couldn’t help but break out the strobes for this classic wedding photo cliche…

Technical: two sb 600’s on stands camera left and right at 45 degree angles, one sb 800 on a stand pointed at the group, one sb 800 on camera as the master flash. all fired at about 1/4 power, ambient dropped 2 stops.
Bay Area Photographer: Amorina’s Sacramento Backyard Wedding: Cans4Comments Review
December 1, 2009For the cans 4 comments drive I’m stepping it up a notch. Everyday I’ll be posting a few favs from the year, the best of the best, for you to leave comments on. Remember, the more comments the more cans I donate to Valley Churches United Mission.
Amorina had a beautiful wedding in her parents back yard. Even though it was a million degrees outside we still had a game of bocce ball in dress. I love it when the bride is relaxed and would rather have fun than worry about the minutia of wedding porn (you know, all the stuff in the wedding zine pictures).
Congrats Amorina.
Amorina is also part of my longterm project. I’m seeking brides and grooms who will let me shoot their wedding and follow up every year with a shoot documenting their life. So next year this time I’ll be doing a portrait shoot of her and Ray and their little ones. Super stoked on that.
