Aquila and Aaron – Wedding at Castle McCulloch

So it’s August and you’d expect it to be hot, hot, hot. But we were BLESSED with cooler temperatures on the day of Aquila and Aaron’s wedding. It was a beautiful day at Castle McCulloch with the ceremony performed under the tent and reception in the Crystal Gardens. Create A Cake provided the catering and decorations and as always with them, service was exemplary.

Here are a few images from Aquila and Aaron’s wedding and reception. We wish you both all the best!

For Photographers: Pocket Wizard, Off Camera Flash

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Thank goodness because my ability to write down my thoughts and ideas is never all that great. So here are a few examples of photos taken with and without off camera flash.

First is the cake. Now we’ve all seen beautifully crafted wedding cakes, most often shoved in a corner somewhere and all we can do is stand back and take a snapshot. I don’t know about you but one of my wedding day nightmares involves me, a camera and a cake somehow getting smashed. Trust me, I’m going to be extremely careful.

Cake shot normal mode:

Cake with off camera flash placed behind the cake:

Another example can be seen in the photos of the dress details:

Some may prefer the flatter lighting. I personally like the more dramatic lighting I can achieve with my flash positioned off camera. But that’s a personal preference. Just remember to not exceed flash sync speed as I did on the first dress shot (see dark band on right side of image). It’s an easy thing to overlook.

Until next time..peace out!
Becki
