This photo was taken on one of our lovely destination wedding photoshoots in Thailand, at the private club inside the Panacea Retreat in Koh Samui. The bold, saturated colours the country is known for are highlighted here within the venue. The colours attract the eye to the image as a whole, while the bride’s pure white dress stands out and brings focus to the newlyweds.
This photo was taken with a Nikon D750 DSLR at ISO 1600, f5 aperture, 1/100th shutter speed with a Nikon Nikkor 20mm f1.8 zoom lens, at 20mm focal length.
The lighting was a flash on a monopod, held by my assistant, Oliver. The flash contained the MagMod grid (MagGrid) to narrow the beam of light on the groom. We also placed a flash behind the couple. The flash contained a red gel to add to the atmosphere of the room.
Location: 51/25 Moo 1 Bophut, Koh Samui, Surat Thani 84320, Thailand.
