One of my favorite things to photograph during a wedding reception is the first dance. All eyes are on the couple and it’s three to four minutes of them alone. I’ll work the different angles in relation to my lights and take some wide shots of the whole scene. Then I work my way in a little bit closer, and finally I try to get some very tight shots of their expressions.

I took this shot of Jeffry and Amy towards the end of their first dance last Saturday. I saw this in the viewfinder and was very happy when I checked it and it was in focus.

Please check back for more photos, I’ll be posting them as I edit.
