"The Bridal Session"
©David A. Ziser
I made this image back in my Nikon days which is literally about 6 years ago. I still love it. It is a classic, elegant portrait which was exactly what the client and her mother desired. Actually, I got the call after the wedding to do the bridal session since their wedding photographer captured no formal portraits on the wedding day. The bride was beautiful and the setting was sumptuous. Lighting was simply made with my off-camera flash fired through a translucent umbrella from a direction that gave me my beautiful loop lighting pattern on the bride’s face. All pretty straight forward but creating a great result, Camera specs; Nikon D1x fitted with 18-35mm lens, F 5.6 @ 1/50 second, ISO 400.
Enjoy! -David

I really like the composition and the lighting in this very excellent portrait.
ReplyDeleteOn average, how many portraits of the bride do you take on the wedding day?
Thanks, Zechariah
How close was the umbrella? I thought by looking at it that it was through a snooted light.
