Default Re: Input for Wedding Pics

Outdoors at a wedding -- and it sounds like this is your first wedding as a photographer -- just keep the flash on the camera, using it for fill. Adjust exposure manually or set to Shutter priority at your max sync speed. Then dial down your flash FEC to -1 to -2. You will have decent results. If you insist on off-camera flash, just put one on a lightstand. No umbrella -- who knows what the wind will be like, and you don't want to have to lug around sandbags at a wedding.
