10 minute bride and groom portrait shoot - One room, one camera, one lens, one take
In this video I spend 10 minutes in one room, with one camera and one lens to see how many bride and groom portrait photographs I can take in that time. This wedding photography behind the scenes took place on one of my off camera flash workshops - although this shoot was all in natural light.
For this challenge I used my Sony A9 camera together with a Samyang 35mm 1.4 lens. Within the shoot I also used a prism and fractal filter for creative effects.
I hope that this video helps to demonstrate the variety of different images it is possible to take in limited space and a short time when you try to maximise all the things which are available to you in the room - such as natural light, mirrors and reflections.
A huge thank you to my friend Marc for filming and booking on to the workshop, Demi and James for being my amazing models and also to Kim, Phil and Vickie for attending the workshop and not heckling whilst I shot this video!

Every time! Every Time!! Every time I watch your videos, the inspiration and creative bulbs just light up in my head. Thanks for these contents. Some expensive wedding photography contents are not even this hands on!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that :-)
Ridiculously amazing. Makes me want to sell up all of my gear and just do a whole wedding with 1 lens. lol
Thank you so much! Using just one lens like this for a challenge is a really good exercise, it certainly makes you think more
You worked hard in that session, Neil and packed more creativity in 10 minutes than many photographers achieve in a day. Killer shots and great bts techniques. Many thanks.
Thank you so much Vernon :-)
Worth the watch!!👏🏾👌🏾

Neil Thank you ever again for these videos. One day I will shake your hand as another wedding photographer as they really do help, great thinking outside the box, creative ideas, fun and relaxed too. Love to see another photographers perspective
Thank you Jon, I really appreciate that. I'm pleased you find it useful, this was far from perfect, it's (probably obviously!) unrehearsed and I always think of what I should have done afterwards, but if nothing else that's how it is in real life - for me anyway! Haha
Also towards the end I could see the sweat. lol
Haha, it was HOT in that room!
Wow... Wonderful...Ur not only a great photographer but also a creative reflectographer 😍😍
Thank you very much!
good job
Cool, man! )))
Thanks Neil for sharing such great ideas which inspire a lot of people like me to do something extraordinary. The pictures are fabulous. Lots of love❤️ for you from India 🇮🇳
Thank you so much!
Fantastic tutorial Neil.....I have watched this so many times since you first posted it.......would love to see how you work outside in overcast flat light.
Thank you very much Sean, that is great to hear! I hope to make many more videos like this in the future so hopefully will do them in all sorts of weather! Thank you :)
Hi Neil, nice work! What is the tool you were using for the refletctions at 1.45'??
sei fantastico
Hi Neil. Brilliant as usual. Can you please show us how you edited these shots in the next video
amazing Sir
Genius Buoooyyy!
Thank you Neeraj!
Sensacional, parabéns e obrigado por dividir tanto conhecimento, você é uma das minhas grandes referências na fotografia, só uma dúvida, aquilo que você pôs em frente a objetiva é um cristal?
Amazing work Loved it 😊..
Thank you Ganesh!
I learned a lot by just watching this, also you're very efficient!! No time wasted and a bunch of great shots :o
By the way, I got myself the a9 and I'm loving it, have you tried the new firmware yet?
Thank you very much! Woah, that's awesome, I'm pleased you are enjoying it. No, I haven't updated yet, only because I had shoots over the weekend so didn't want to risk anything going wrong with the update, but I will do this week. Have you?
thanks!! following here from Brazil.
Wow, thank you, that's amazing!
@@NeilRedfern I believe I have watched almost every video, also following on instagram.
@@adelmosantos9604 very kind of you!
Superb!
Thank you Dani!
Your video’s make me so happy! They are so inspirational! And the photo’s are stunning! Thanks for sharing again! Only one question about that game with the animals. I couldn;t understand well. What did they have to do?
Thank you very much! I just ask them to do an impression of an animal beginning with a letter, such as 'F', and then 'G', then 'H' and so on - it's impossible to play without laughing :-)
supeeerr ......... sir
How I wish.. I could metamorph into an ace photographer like you. 🤗
Too kind, thank you
Brilliant video Neil. Belitin Lancashire accent like mine I'm from Chorley.
Thank you very much! Aah Chorley, I lived in Preston for a few years whist at University :)
Very nice Neil. Glad you’ve seen the Sony light. 😬
Thanks Frank - loving the A9!
What is that reflection tool in which a bride pic was reflect 2 time in one shot
this is just mind blowing in love with your framing and everthing . i just wanted
to know what settings do u keep ?
Thank you very much Sejal! Sorry, I should have posted my settings in the video. I shoot everything in manual and for all these shots my aperture would have been quite wide, around f2.
Hi Neil, another great video. Really inspiring. How are you finding the Samyang 35 1.4 lens? Just in the middle of switching to Sony and have been looking at getting that lens.
Thank you very much James! I love the Samyang 35mm, it's almost glued to my A9, the quality of it is incredible for the price, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it
Neil, could you make a video explaining how you edit your photos? Your color are amazing. I and many people would learn this. Hugs from Brazil.
Thank you very much! I run live online webinars where I show exactly how I edit in Lightroom. I can cover much more that way as the webinar lasts for over two hours. Please sign up to my mailing list if you are interest in booking on to one :)
Well done mate 👍👍
Thank you very much Frank!
What was your shutter speed set to for the shot at 1:10? The go pro footage made it seem the natural light was super bright on the bride, but was that the case for your camera?
Love the work. Would help if settings are provided.❤️
You are Awesome
You are geniusssssss....
What you edit in that kind of pictures? I mean only colur retauching or heavy editing?
Thank you very much Manish! I do virtually all of my editing in Lightroom
What did you put in front of the camera to get the duplicates of the images? Please
Top work Neil - it wasn't an easy room with the TV etc. Hilarious ending comment :D
Thank you mate! Haha, I actually edited that out at first but I thought it was best to be honest :-)

Very useful This video sir, , big thank you sir R.MANOHAR ,Chennai.India
Hey Neil,
Please could you post a link to a the fractal glass you use please in the Uk
Here you go Marcus: rigu.co.uk/fractal-filters-classic-prism-set
Do you remember what your camera settings were for the very beginning with the window and bride
I'm afraid I don't, but I would expose for the bride's dress as that will be the brightest part of the image
Neil Redfern I just feel like I always end up with window glare when placed by a window
Wow mantab.......!
Amazing photos Neil! What focus setting do you usually use? Wide, zone, center, ect?
I use flexible spot on the A9 :)
@@NeilRedfern But when you have 2 peaople you alse use flexible and not wide?
When you did the window shot of her do you lower your exposure a lot or is that darkened down in post!
Good question. I'm exposing for the dress - so with the light from the window being so much brighter than the light in the room, she background went almost to black in camera, which is what I wanted. I hope this makes sense?
Neil Redfern so you play with settings until the dress looks spot on or do you use a certain metering mode or?
Basically yes, although with the A9 I use the live EVF and change the shutter speed until I can see that the dress is correctly exposed. The dress is the brightest thing in the frame so that's what I expose for that.
Nice thinking
How did you mount the gopro on the camera?
I use a GoPro hotshoe mount like this: amzn.to/2UJZhHC
jajajajajajaj, Hard work as a photographer, Neil.
What are you using at 9:53, some kind of prism?All photos are so so inspirational. Good job from Bulgaria!
Thank you very much! It is called a Fractal Filter 😊
@@NeilRedfern thanks!
Great video. What is that ‘toy’ you pulled out towards the end? To make the sort of crystal effect? It’s a great idea. Thanks
