The lights I have don't seem bright enough (250) so when I did a course with the wonderful Sarah Wilkes, her set up is one large octobox and a 500 flash head, and when I took my photos with her set up, they turned out much better with that style of lighting! Is it just me??? Could be :bang: Mel

Hi, I was using a 24-105 L and I was having to focus on either the bride or the groom and recompose the shot so that they were both in focus! Sorry this sounds so idiotic, but I can't remember having to do that before??? Perhaps its something I did unconsiously!!! I also use a Canon 5D and...

I did a wedding last week and noticed that for example when taking a picture of the bride and groom I was having to focus on either the bride or the groom, hold the focus and move the camera! Have I got the settings right? Ive got the auto focus on, on all focus and single shot! I cant...
