I didn\u2019t want to use on camera flash as all the subdued table lighting would be blasted away so it would look like it was photographed at lunchtime in a sunny cafe.\u00a0 High ISO&#8217;s and very fast lenses saved the day, it\u2019s much harder work of course but in my view the results are worth it &#8211; no intrusive flash and I can take as many photographs as I choose, no one is the wiser!<\/p>\n<p>It was a wonderful occasion.\u00a0 I enjoyed my role as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wedding photographer<\/a>, as I have for nearly 30 years now, every ceremony is different and it\u2019s great to be a part of the couple\u2019s day.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-250228 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London-.jpg\" alt=\"bride and father in hotel - wedding day photography\" width=\"811\" height=\"649\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London-.jpg 811w, https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London--300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London--750x600.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London--768x615.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London--190x152.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 811px) 100vw, 811px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-250224 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.douglasfry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Wedding-Photographer-London-4.jpg\" alt=\"bride and groom in front of Stationers&#039;
