Photographing the beauty of the landscape – wedding photojournalist
Photographing a wedding at the Interlaken Inn in Lakeville, CT is always a great experience (https://www.interlakeninn.com). As a wedding photojournalist I love capturing authentic moments. The location offers so many photographic opportunities.
I arrived at the lake one hour before starting the photography coverage and fell in love with the beautiful warm colors and the reflections on the water. I prefer the telephoto view of the landscape and my preferred lens choice is the Zeiss Otus 100mm 1.4. Even at f/1.4 I cannot believe the amount of micro contrast and detail that the image shows.
As I drove away from the lake, I noticed the guests of the wedding playing games in the fields opposite the main building of the Interlaken Inn. It was cold but the sun rays were creating a warm feeling. I continued capturing authentic moments of joy using the Zeiss Otus 100mm 1.4 lens. It is the amount of subject separation that creates such a unique look.
Capturing details at the bride’s suite
It was time for the details shots at the bridal suite. The bride was getting ready and I devoted thirty minutes in the details, such as the shoes, the wedding rings, the invitations cards and the flowers. Most photographers choose either a 50mm or a 100mm macro lens for this section of the day. I own and have used the venerable Zeiss 100mm f2 macro lens in the past. However, it is not my ideal lens as there are significant chromatic aberrations wide open. Flower bouquets were prepared by Country Gardener’s Florist (https://countrygardenersflorist.com).

Then I visited the groom’s room and as a wedding photojournalist aiming to capture authentic moments. I noticed the interactions of the bridal party as they were getting ready. The best man was assisting the groom and the only thing I asked them to do was to move closer to the window. There was a soft light coming through the large window and illuminating the groom and his best man.

The bride was getting ready with the assistance of her mother. I tend to keep a distance from the bride and use a long prime lens to capture the emotions without being obtrusive.
