I have posted under the Wedding forum with some more photographs for critique and comments so would love some feedback
Welcome to FM and welcome to the film thread! You are off to an amazing start. I love 400H and your examples of shooting it +3 stops makes me want to try it even more.
Do you shoot all your weddings on film?
jbrown86 - Rattymouse\'s response reminds me to comment also and apologies for not doing so earlier.
I applaud your use of film for your planned return to wedding photography. The two you\'ve posted above and the rest in the referenced thread all look good to me. Use of film is a great way to distinguish your work from the majority.
As a query however, is the overexposed look very much a current wedding trend?
My stepdaughter was married last Nov and the photographer also did a great job, however I would have reduced the \'blown highlight look\' in many of his shots.
Regards to Hampshire (it was an escape zone for me when I lived in Camberley!)
To your question about weddings, I thought I would chime in. Both my daughters wedding photogs were doing the high-key thing.
I had always striven to expose for the highlights & let the flash balance the shot, so it some mental re-adjustment But I am happy with the results overall. It is a thing! I just shot a 20th anniversary for a couple & I went old school
