Weddings & "Bad" Light

[Dr Croubie]

Organise an electrician friend's help so there just happens to be a power cut during the ceremony.

While everyone is panicing, save the day with a whole box of candles that you just happen to have in your car "for another shoot". Give one to everyone in the audience to hold and place the resr around the church, one or two hundred candles burning should give a nice ambient warm-yellow glow, no direct-fluoro light to ruin anything.

Then pull out a 1DX/5D3/6D with an 85/1.2LII, shoot at ISO1600 or so, and have the best damn wedding photos ever.
