Hi all! I have been commissioned to do two weddings. I haven't ever done one before so this a "biggie" for me and I am probably more nervous then a cat in a room full of rocking chairs! Well yesterday I went and checked out the location for the second wedding which will be outside in a park on the water, so no problem there I should feel right at home shooting on the water outside, and I am not worried about flash at the receptions. But today I went and checked out the location for the first wedding, and I can now say that I am officially more nervous then the bride to be... The location is a tiny old Church with very little lighting (either natural or man made). *gulp* As many of you may know, I have always preferred using "natural light" and have honestly never shot with flash! (except for the little speedlight that pops up on top of the camera, and very little of that!) Now I am pretty sure that the minister isn't going to allow me to shoot during the actual ceremony as I am sure he doesn't want to be interuppted by blinding bursts of light. OK so now I am going to go out and purchase a flash unit for this camera, any suggestions on what to get? Any suggestions for how to deal with the inside church shots? By the way the ceiling is vaulted and wood. I was thinking that maybe setting the ISO at a higher setting would help me some with the light situation?! I think I would even be lost doing this one with film to be honest with ya, as I never had a flash unit for any of my 35's. Now for the good news, Southern Photo, the place where I bought my new cam, has a class that I will attend free of charge, because I bought my camera there. I have a ton of questions to ask them about settings, I decided to start writing them down. Any help, suggestions or tips on shooting weddings in general or about my specific problem would be greatly appreciated. I am attatching a few images here, please keep in mind that I did not have my tripod so they are blurred, but I figured I would show you what I have. Brenda :)
