Another Great Wedding with a Sparklers Exit!

This week we had another wonderful wedding.  This couple was great!  The bride had a wonderful mermaid cut dress with a beautiful train.  The dress was sleeveless and had some stunning beaded details.  Basically the dress rocked and the bride looked beautiful in it!

I wanted to share with you how I shot this wedding photo.  After the couple did the sparkler exit they wentback inside the wedding venue to wrap a few things up.  While they were inside I grabbed a few sparklers that did not get used on the exit and grabbed my tripod out of the car.  I then went inside the venue and asked one of the couples friends if he could help me and he said "sure!"  I then asked the couple if I could bother them for one more photo.  The bride was very open and said "yes of course!"  I put my camera on my tripod and set it up for a long exposure.  I asked the couples friend to stand behind the couple and to wave the sparklers around. Since it was completely dark I set my flash on full power.  The flash locked thecouple in place and the long exposure let their friend paint the couple with sparkler light without being seen by the camera. 

I hope that you enjoy the photo as much as I did taking it.  I want to thank the couple and all of you for visiting my blog.  I would love to hear from you!  Please go to the contact section and drop me a line I promise I will get back to you!

Thanks again!
