- Join award winning wedding photographer Jason Lanier for his first wedding at Taber Ranch in Northern California where he used the Sony A9 for the first time in what he believes to be the first wedding in the world shot with the new camera. PLEASE THUMBS UP, SHARE, LEAVE A COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE!
PLEASE NOTE: This wedding was shot on May 19, 2017.
This wedding was part of a REAL Wedding Workshop where Jason brings students to learn and shoot at a real wedding. In this video Jason uses the 70-200 G Master, 16-35 Sony Zeiss, 35mm Sony Zeiss lenses.
Please note that Jason experienced no overheating or overheating warnings from the camera despite it being a very hot day (over 90 degrees) and they were in direct sunlight for hours.

Brilliant how you work with the environment, the props, and the people.
Awesome video, can't wait for part 2!
Loved it! Can't wait for Part 2!
Those shots with the sun right behind the bride and groom. Just beautiful.
Realy nice work Jason ! Bravo
Beautiful shots! nice!
Perfect for every event captures every moment
I shot entire wedding by Sony a6000 with no issues, fast autofocus even during low light. IMHO a9 is much better than a6000. So many Sony haters just don't want to see a great Sony camera out there, you guys need to check your mental health before you complain the camera even you never put your finger on it :)
JIA FOTO what gear and lens did you use?
Beautiful shots, Jason. Thanks for sharing these things with us.... Really informative.
Jason, your work is inspiring. Excellent video!
Amazing video very interesting and helpful! More of this please! Awesome photos and amazing work! Thanks
1 guy has reported his a9 overheating and the internet goes mad.
1 guy (jl) does a shoot and his doesn't overheat and the world calls him a liar.
The internet is a fickle little world
Go watch Amar's video and maybe you'll understand...
nitrowad I watch Amar the hater videos and he is full of crap, nothing he says is real so you really referenced the wrong person. He says i like Sony and i want Sony to make it, i almost bought the A9 but not anymore lol but laughing and always saying bad stuff about Sony and Jason, he's a hater for real, he says i want Sony to make it, I have Sony cameras lmbo he has Canon and you will always see him popping it up to say this is better, this is a real camera lmbo and then the truth comes out as he bashes Sony and Jason for supporting Sony. That guy is scandalous and low class.
@Michael he had some good points about the video, since this video's title is about overheating, and how it's not happening, but actually isn't a real test where we can see that it's not overheating but patched up video of the event, which btw. seems weird - who in the world would like a photographer to teach other photographer how to shoot... ON THEIR WEDDING??? Are you kidding me? If this ain't stage, then I feel sorry for the newlywed couple...
Anyways, all people are discussing issues that Sony admitted (we still don't know the scale of the issue - how much cameras has been hit by it), but the problem is that there are a lot of fanboys that take things personal. I shoot Canon, Fuji, Samsung. I tried Nikon and Sony - didn't like them. I'm not saying they are bad, just didn't like them, but people have to be open minded for critique (whether it's a subjective or objective thing). For example - subjectively I don't like Nikon colors (not in RAW files, not in JPEGs) - that's subjective. I hate Canon focusing issues, and especially 3rd party lens focusing issues (on other systems too) - that's objective. I don't like how Fuji measures ISO. Samsung has poor range of lenses and died cause of mediocre camera system. I didn't like Sony colors, or just the experience when using the camera (placement of buttons, settings, etc) - that's subjective. Sony A9 advertised as sports camera having overheating issues when shooting in warm day, and having banding when using electronic shutter (5fps on mechanical - a joke for sports camera) - that's objective. JL can't say negative things about Sony (he never did, although there are some Sony cameras with notorious issues). Some other channels can't say negative stuff about other brands (or multiple brands) cause they are sponsored, etc.
Do you get my point now? In this case, it's about Sony, but it's not a war on Sony, I will also critique the brands I'm using for issues they are having or if they false advertise something, and everyone should do it. And if you ask why, the answer is simple - if we all raise are voice and critique the bad stuff, these things will get corrected, and brands will do more QA, and we will end up with brands releasing better cameras.
Great stuff Jason! ....as always!
Derek Novaes thank you!
good video dude. can't wait for the second part.
Watching this now beautiful!
Nice video, thanks Jason.
Sounds like another good Sony camera. Keep up the good work. All the best 👍
Gorgeous place. Gorgeous couple. Gorgeous photos. Looking forward to part 2. :)
The shots you took were breathtaking. Seriously perfect stuff. Thanks for the video.
Jason you're simply amazing at photography.
Great video man! I see that photography is more about learning how the light can be manipulated in your favor. Thanks man!
Great video Jason! Keep up the good work!
Beautiful job!
Great video Jason I'm looking forward to assisting you today in DC
Great video as always!!!
Great video, awesome images !
Amazing!
@jasonlanier I've following your work for a while now you have some amazing, inspiring work.
Beautiful shots Sir..
God bless you what white balance do you use when you are using the flash?
I just randomly watch this video for no reason, come out enjoying the whole video
Thank you for the video Mr. Lanier. It is quite amazing seeing how you compose your amazing photographs!
This is the first time I have looked at your comments section, and I have no clue why there is so much hate. You never put down people who use different gear, but people seem to want to criticize you for your gear and not your results. And, although your reviews do come across as advertisements sometimes, reviewing the gear never seem to be the focus of your videos. I like how you talk about your gear, but you don't say that you can't get similar results with different gear. Instead, you show how your gear makes your life better, and you tell people to find gear that works for them.
Once again, thank you for your videos!
Amazing!! Thanks Jay for your inspiration...also, I have the same black long sleeve shirt that you were wearing....lol. Keep up the great work you do....
Wow Amazing Camera+Photographer.....Dope
amazing!
Great job Jason!! Can you answer what aperture you choose for shots like this at 0:10 ?
good dynamic range
Hi Jason I'm trying to learn how to shoot outside in the sun using a flash, just like you did for this wedding, any suggestions on what kind of lighting for someone still kind of new?
Hi, can you recommend me a good Flash? Great video by the way
i dont think camera will get overheat for just taking photos...
Awesome video Jason..
may i know which profile u use in this kinna of intense light enviroment
Wow - What a fantastic video Jason. Superb work.
Jason, looking to start getting back into photography as i took it in high school but never had to buy a camera, I'm looking at getting the Sony A6500 and was wondering what wide angle, prime and zoom lens you would recommend, leaning on the 500$ range for each?
You are the living proof that gear is irrelevant when you know what you're doing.
You are also the living proof that most of the crap and smearing thrown towards Sony mirrorless cameras are either fabrications or incompetence.
There are no "perfect" cameras, only people that master their craft and bold people that will push it further.
Keep up JL. You inspire me.
Iannis Maragakis thank you brother!
I like your serene attitude, it's often not the case for wedding photographers which are speedy and run everywhere to find the good angle. That's why I will never be a good wedding photographer, also I suck at taking pictures :P
You are amazing Jason. I am happy Sony have someone like you; I am seriously considering Sony as my next upgrade from Canon; Good Luck!
Wanted to attend your DC shop, when u here this weekend but had a shoot tonight and prom shoot tomorrow. Hope u having a great workshop here in DC. :)
thanks again Jason for meeting me and talking, taking a pic with me at the Hotel. wish i could stay to assist u. Next time for sure. I hope i am the first person that took a pic of you with their own Sony A9..
When will you showing the finished photos?
Can't find part 2 the reception. Was it taken down? Where is the link?
Hi Jason,
What type of flash do you use for wedding?
Great Video!!!
Amazing Camera Sony A9
skin tone beutifull
Mr Lanier, I have a A9. When I used it with my godox flash in HSS the auto white balance does not produce the desired colors. What is your recommendation on white balance settings during flash usage. Your follower from India.
is it good enough for sport or wildlife photography ? 20 fps is the fastest, but the autofocus it is better than canon 1dx mark 2 or d5 ?
Hey Jason, Canon cameras have a button that lets you "rate" your photos 1-5 stars for sorting in lightroom, I wonder does the A9 or A7rII have that feature?
I think Jason is the only person that Sony cameras never have issues with.
have 3 sony's no issues
Joseph DAgostino maybe it's because he knows how to use it
lol no
Shooting a wedding on the hot GA coastal beach tomorrow with the A9. Hoping for the best!
Philip Cunio Maybe he has, but doesn't want to give a bad publicity to his sponsor, it is understandable.
Great ideas for shots! Awesome Job! I dont care what system is in use but 20fps is mind blow! My nikon have 6,5fps and i dont use it as much but when i saw that continous shots! Maaaan!
Nice job, Jason! This may be the first time I saw Jason shooting through the EVF with the camera braced against his face rather than holding the camera away from his body.
would you still go with the A9 or the A7R iii in todays update and firmware?
For someone who is a beginner what camera and lenses do you recommend for wedding photography?
Jason's work speaks for itself he in an amazing photographer, the camera just allows his vision to show. I've seen some of his other work and it is every bit as good. I wouldn't mind taking some of his work shops. Between him and Matt Granger they are talented. If you like Jason or Matt or not they both have work that speaks for themselves. Very good, I'm sorry great Jason.
I was one of the attendees at this workshop. Jason is incredibly talented, dedicated (maybe obsessed), and the hardest working artisan in the photography community. The only way to truly understand is to GO TO A WORKSHOP AND SEE!!! The overheating claim is absurd and nonsense, wasn’t ever even a consideration so I’m not going to talk about it. I spent a huge amount of time behind Jason’s shoulder. I’m the guy talking to him at 9:55 in the video. Jason is totally open about everything he does. As you can see we went through a ton of his shots straight off the camera (yes some were not keepers) and we talked about what went right and what went wrong during the entire shoot (for us both). Jason is totally above board with everything he does. All he really wants to do is push the art of photography forward. Beyond his own work, beyond the vendors, beyond the trolls, he really just wants to celebrate the art and its artists, and help teach you to be a better photographer. Again, go to a workshop and it will all become clear to you. Thanks for all your help Jason!
Thank you brother. I love your comments and truly appreciate them. Thanks for coming, I can't wait to see you again!!
I do enjoy your work, but lately these videos seem more like Sony commercials. If the videos concentrated more on the work without throwing in the Sony plugs, it would be so much better. If the person behind the camera has the talent, then the system used is not as important.
As I have mentioned previously, Sony is doing a good job enhancing their line. This will only push Canon and Nikon which will push Sony and we all win not matter what we use. I think what irks non-Sony users is when people describe items such as the joy stick, dual card slots, auto-focusing system, high frame rate as if these features were not on other camera systems first or in my opinion that is how it comes across. I can only speak for Canon, these have been around for some time and Sony is catching up. We can debate the focusing systems between the two systems, Canon lets you choose how to handle the two card slots, (dual write or auto switch for example), don't know how many times in portraits or weddings I would want to rapid fire the 1DX. I am not saying that Sony isn't doing a good job, but those items are not revolutionary. 5 axis stabilization, that is something Canon and Nikon should do. The Pentax people have had that advantage for some time and Sony has done a nice job by implementing that feature.
While I see nothing wrong with using the A9 for weddings even though Sony advertises it as a Pro body for sports and wildlife, it comes across as Sony users trying to justify the camera due to the lack of long Pro lenses for sports and wildlife.
Strong Sony offerings will only help us Canon and Nikon folks as hopefully they will get a wake up call. You mentioned in many videos that it doesn't matter what equipment you use, which I totally agree with. I really do enjoy your work, but lately I feel that you are spending a large amount of time pushing the Sony product more than your work which should be what is highlighted in these videos. It comes across as if you are not using Sony, then how can you possibly be getting great results with something else. Again in my opinion, many of us are missing out on the talent you can share because its appears lately to be how Sony is helping you get those results when it really is just your ability. You may say that it doesn't matter what camera you use and I believe inside you feel that way, but outwardly, you keep praising Sony as if they are the perfect system.
Jason... I noticed that you didn't use the Rotolight Aeos but It seems like it would've been an easier option. I have never used it but from the looks of it, it could've gotten the job done quite nicely no?
Whew...thanks for renewing my faith in Sony...! We can just sweep the other overheating reports under the carpet!
Looking forward to getting the a9.
floyd bent it is overheating gust wait
A few people had a problem, most do not, yet you are focused on a small minority. 100 people could say they shot in the heat without a problem and 2 says they did. The haters ignore the 100 because they don't tell the story the haters want to hear.
Sony presented the A9 as a sports/wildlife Camera Lanier pushes it as portrait/ wedding camera. Nice one
Christos Phillippou don't worry I'll get to sports..:)
I wish that you could talk in some detail about the Sony focusing modes and which ones you prefer or which modes you use most often. I am now a Sony shooter having moved from Nikon in the last month. Am I happy I switched? Yes I am, Sony lenses give me high contrast, intense color, and sharpness from wide open to F16. However focus modes on Nikon and Sony a7rii are totally different and has taken some practice on my part to get what I need. I hope you can do a video or something to help some us who may be focus challenge. Thanks, Art
Never had an issue with my a7sii overheating. Been shooting video with it for a year and a half.
good job
which camera r u using for shooting video?
Jason, if the Sun is coming from the left, why wouldn't you put the flash on the right side to fill the shadows?
5:17 Curious as to why you're only shooting with one camera at a real wedding event. I got anxious watching you switch lenses in these critical moments.
I had the same reaction! Why was he chilling at the back, not even looking at the bride and her dad. If he dropped his lens he would have missed one of the most important moments of the day! I'm always in the front near the groom when the bride walks up.
Great weight loss Jason, walking better too, keep it up mate. Great video.
Hi
Have you tried 4k and HD in APS-C mode
hey Jason, I've shot this venue before and it was the hottest temp wedding it was near 100 and no breeze
Best sir
How was your rapid box set up for this shoot?
Beautiful video! Great photos. I must be the other guy that never has any problems with Sony. :) I am a landscape photographer, so I am currently sitting on the sidelines with my A7RII.
Agreed. My RII has never overheated.
I love it 58 dislikes. Seriously?
An A9 is in my future pending a few lenses and what happens with the A7RIII. Another great video bro! Wish I were with you in DC.
What off camera flash unit was being used?
The camera did not overheat while shooting a wedding. Got any sports gigs coming up to really put it through its paces?
Is the strobe on ttl or are you setting the power manually.
Andrew Throup manually brother
What light source did you use?
It's interesting reading these year+ old posts. I have a Canon 5DIII as well as a Sony a6000. Which one gets more use? The Sony. I like that it's significantly lighter than the Canon. The controls and learning to shoot with it was a bit different at first, but I got through it. The colors are great. The images are sharp. Lightroom works with the Sony Raw files. What's not to like? An a9 must be fricking heaven to work with.
Great job Jason👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 and a9 not overheating ? 😻😻😻😻😻😻
I noticed that during the posed shots you used the strobe camera left throwing light from the direction of the sun. Why wouldn't you use it camera right, to fill from the shadow side?
Is the A9 weather sealed?
is that in Bakersfield?
I shot a wedding at Taber Ranch a few years ago. It was one of the windiest weddings ever at the top of that ceremony site. Beautiful property though.
Could we get to see some of the other photographers photos, for comparison? thanks.
What camera do u use to record ur vlog?
Was the flash set to 1/3 power ?
I can't wait for part 2? ETA?
Thank goodness for the parasols!
Niiiice, thanks for the info? Keep rocking it 🤘
lol I found this inspiring. id love to see you try this without moving. only moving the model.
Perfect shots in the midday sun; This is why you want a good pro to shoot your wedding.
Sony cameras have been amazing since the intro of the A7. The A9 is another breakthrough. Time to unload all of my Nikon and Canon DSLRs on EBay.
Jason, I shoot with a Sony A7, A7R, and A7RII, 5 degrees to 105, and never has a body overheat. I shoot on the coast and in the rain--no problems. I shoot in the mountains and in the sandy desert. A bunch of internet BS if you ask me. Further, I generally shoot with 2 cameras switching the bodies on the same tripod. The original A7R with a Canon 55mm F1.2 keeps up with the A7RII, sometimes best the new body. In lightroom or photoshop, I need to read which camera the photo was taken with. Remember--when it come to lights, or lighting--you are the man!!!
I just noticed that you were only using one camera and swapping lenses.
I use prime lenses at weddings (35mm & 85mm) and on two occasions I was told that I was not professional for swapping lenses.
Once time Someone in the crowd said they were studing photography at university so i offered them my camera to take over the shoot but they just backed off.
Were you shooting both photos and video with the camera? Thats how I shoot.
