Being that I only have one made the selection process easy. I didn't have any prep time and this was a last minute ring set as hers was lost in a vast industrial sewer shortly before the wedding. Her shoes were her favorite piece of her wardrobe so I figured this was fitting.

One I posted earlier was my favorite. I should probably move that watermark, as it hides the pearl which is an integral part of the image.
This was shot with a TS-E 90 with a 12mm tube, and a flash with the shutter dragged a bit.

Default Re: Your Favorite Ring Shot!

Ohh! Ring shots! You guys have some nice photos here! The ring shots are my favorite part of the whole wedding. Here's a few random shots:

I like to take something that is at the wedding, like, something that the couple or family made or did special, and incorporate that into the ring shot. While others may not get the significance of the shot, the couple does. If there are not any cool details to shoot the rings on, I usually revert to the champagne cork or the flowers.

These guys had ink pens printed as favors to the guests.
1


2

The groom was a baseball player. This was a thing on his grooms cake table. Lit with LED Flashlights.
3

This was the first time I tried out using LED lights to light the rings
4

This couple had these little clothes pins on one of their decorations. I didn't make the rings straight, because the couple was crazy. I liked them. They were a bit wonky, so, I made their ring shot wonky too. (for the record, I also got regular shots too)
5

This couple had made the candle holders. They were mason jars filled with un-hulled rice. So, I poured rice from one of the holders out onto the table for this one.
6

Cake balls....I ate them after taking the shots....
7

The groom played the accordion.
8

These guys made strawberry jam for the guests. They packaged the jam with a little spoon and a pack of crackers into a little bag. My favorite favor of all.
9

Thanks!....Chris
