It was a warn sunny day , Isablle & Eric were natural , fun and energetic. The ceremony was held outside in the hotel’s garden. Afterwards we moved to the restaurant for the reception. Weddings are fun to shoot in Montreal , specially in the old port area.
What a great show. I had to pleasure to watch a friend and a colleague of mine performing with his band One Away from montreal at the St-Hubert Plaza theater . Its was energetic , electrifying vibe and great music. I wish them great success and best of luck .

Few pictures of the show
I been doing a lot of portrait in ambient light situations. By using a Nikon and shooting at ISO 1600 its not an easy thing to do. Exposure have to be dead on to minimize noise. I been using reflectors indoors and outdoors to compensate for shadows. My reflector is a simple white foam 20x20inch that costs me 4$.
I been contemplating on buying a continuous light source for weddings and portrait shots that will be added to the mix of flashes. A 1000w halogen light with barn doors and variable focus seems to be the best choice. I will keep shopping around for the best deal and post some new pictures using that kind of light.
Here are 4 pictures taken using only table lamp at ISO 1600 without a reflector
Using only a reflector from the bottom right.
I had the pleasure to cover the first meeting with the candidats for Miss Lebanon in Canada 2007. I had my portable studio lights transported on location for the photoshoot. I will post some pictures soon.
