few from a wedding last week

I haven't done a whole lot of weddings so C&C's are always appreciated. Here are a few highlights.

My favorite is #3
All of them are nice the group picture of the guys seems kinda far away for me.

I bet they really like these!

Nice set! What lens/body setup were you using? #4 looks razor sharp on the fellas. Good work

Love them. I do wish #4 was a bit tighter crop though as I have trouble seeing the guy's faces. Other than that, great work!

I like the ring shot. The one at the lightpost looks awkward to me too far apart. Also the guys wideout could be tighter fill the frame with them.

Thanks. #4 was 5d mkiii with 85 1.2 on it. It's actually a stitch of 18 images using the brenizer method found here

The first shot focus on the guys is cropped tighter, then turned off the AF and shot all around them.

I agree the crop looks too wide on here but I really like the shot full res.

Here's the first shot of the guys tight

i really like the cropped version and love the ring pic. great job on these

Great Set! Do you mind sharing the technique for the ring shot?

I need to find a tutorial on these

Thanks,

I have the 50mm macro with a life size converter I used for that shot. I throw it in live view mode set it to manual focus and set the focus as close as possible and I magnify the image to make sure I'm focused where I want.

You'll need some sort of a macro lens to get that shot for sure.

Thanks Tonman, do you shoot wide-open as well?

#3 is my favorite as well, but they are all awesome.

How well does the life-size converter work for the 50 macro? I have that lens as well, but found it adequate for ring shots without the life-size converter.

4th image is awesome!

I bought them both used as a package deal and pretty much use them both together all the time. I do think ring shots look pretty solid with the 50 alone so it might not really be worth the investment if you're happy with the way your shots are turning out. There's a used one on ebay right now which is a nice deal.

I usually shoot as wide open as possible while still getting all the subjects in focus. I will close down the aperture if I have time to setup lighting properly. Otherwise I try my best to line everyone up as parallel as possible and see how shallow a depth of field I can get away with.

thanks! I just checked out your work. So creative and totally unique. Dynamic range in your photos are nuts!

I like them all!
