How to Photograph Receptions: Breathe Your Passion with Vanessa Joy

Please help us to find bad videos. Broken or unappropriated video content?


Camera settings for receptions can be tricky, especially if you're shooting a day reception and want to make it look more dramatic. Use Off Camera Flash to control how your event photography looks and feels and avoid blurry images and being a slave to your surrounding available light.
