Wedding Ceremony Lighting

Some denominations and individual churches - and sometimes even individual celebrants - ban the use of flash or artificial lighting during the wedding ceremony. That's not a problem; even if we can use flash, we often take a number of photos using natural light. Sometimes, if the time of day is right, the results can be spectacular.


Other churches are equally beautiful, but catching natural sunlight through windows is impossible. For example, the Augusta Stone Church has large windows, but it's surrounded by trees, blocking any dramatic sunbeams. Depending on the time of day the UVA Chapel has very dramatic lighting - but conditions can vary greatly hour to hour.

But rest assured - if the light is right at the time of your ceremony, we'll catch it.
