Who would let a little rain and 40 degree weather stop their wedding? Definitely not Breain and Luke!

I always like to play second shooter at weddings to experiment with new techniques and play around with things that I wouldn’t want to try at a wedding, just in case. Today I had my chance tagging along for fun with Rick & Jodi Bella (www.bellaphotographs.com)

This was an excellent opportunity for me to experiment! I just purchased a high powered flashlight to use as a lightsource for shooting (images coming soon!) and I now realize that I might benefit even more by adding the video light that I originally intended to buy. While both will work in unison, I do believe the video light will provide a little more power.. but then there is the heat issue. A spotlight isn’t going to get anywhere near as hot as a 100 watt video light, that’s for sure. Unfortunately there aren’t any powerful, cool running video lights available. I’m sure in time there will be LED based lights.
A few random shots from the day. I’ll post a gallery later this week with my top picks.
