Jon and Ania’s Wedding

by Paul Bannister on August 11, 2009

First Dance Shot a great wedding in the north of Poland, Gdynia. Great atmosphere, wonderful people, and a loving couple.

The Wedding went perfectly, with quick relax in the spa before getting ready, followed by a vodka shot before getting to the church. (Polish tradition). Took some pictures whilst getting ready, and then as soon as we arrived at the church. Surprisingly they allowed full photography in the Church, and so many angles could be taken. After the ceremony, I took some relaxed shots of guests greeting and congratulating the couple, before a formal one before joining the evening reception. This was in the hotel, in quite dark surroundings, but the high sensitivity of the camera meant I didn’t have to resort to flash until later in the evening. Needless to say the evening finished at 5.30 am….another Polish tradition.

Technical info:
Situations like these is where the Nikon D700 shines. Shot wide open at f2.8 ISO1250. Tack sharp and crisp and zero noise.
