This moment was captured at the Eau in Palm Beach, Florida.
This is an example where I am photographing with a tighter crop as compared to a wider angle shot showing the entire congregation. Because the kiss is a very important part of the wedding ceremony, I wanted the viewer to be able to see everyone's celebratory responses and expressions.
When I am photographing the vows that the couple exchanges, I will crop even tighter because it's such a meaningful moment for just the two of them. The vast majority of wedding photography is photojournalism and story telling. The appropriate lens and the right crop is a very important aspect of this.
