"A Moment In Time"

"A Moment In Time"
©David A. Ziser

I made this image a few years ago and it is still one of my favorite classic wedding images. It shows a beautiful bride in the classic profile view illuminated with a beautiful loop lighting pattern. I think this kind of image is timeless. No, it not like a lot of "run and gun" stuff we see so much of today (not trying to step on toes here,) but it is just a beautiful portrait study of this lovely lady. Many bride's are looking for the more spontaneous look in their images these days which we do capture, but the parents of the bride love these kind of images. Hey, on the wedding day, we need to remember we are shooting for everybody. Camera specs; Canon 5D fitted with 24-105mm IS lens at 50mm, F5.6 @ 1/40 second. ISO 800. Enjoy! -David

    Also loved your tutorial on loop lighting, I agree with you when you say (on the topic) that those are things are being forgotten, these days. Take care!
