What better way to celebrate Clodagh and Tom's forthcoming wedding in Powerscourt Estate than a shoot in Powerscourt Townhouse in Dublin. The warm glow of the Christmas lights makes a perfect background, outdone only by the happy glow off Clodagh and Tom themselves. This was a bit of a baptism of fire for Clodagh and Tom: a shoot in a busy shopping centre at Christmas with plenty of by-standers - good practice for the wedding!
BTS: 5D MkII with a 50mm 1.2L, switching occasionally to a 5DmkII with 24-70 2.8L although the 2.8 had a lot of trouble in the low light. The venue was packed with shoppers so a tripod was out of the question and to get the shots quickly I found myself using the 1.2L pretty much continuously backed up by a Litepanel Micropro for a little fill.
