This is a part of My First Wedding thread.
I took a few snapshots of bride and groom at home, using Sigma 50-150 f/2.8. This was supposed to be a trial for the hotel eating/dance floor shots.
I'm not entirely pleased with them. I just wonder if this is the right lens to use indoors. On the other hand, the wedding venue will be much bigger than my house.
This demonstrates one of the problems. To get two people in focus at 50 mm I had to use f/16 at which point my on-camera (reflected from the ceiling) SB700 was not powerful enough. This forced my to push the ISO up to 1600. Not good...
This one was taken with an on-camera flash reflected from the ceiling. This, from the practical point of view, might be my main option at the venue:
Here I tried an off-camera flash with un umbrella placed high, to the right. I can probably quickly setup an umbrella on a stand at the hotel, though it might be a bit awkward.
