Now, let me share a little secret with you. I live by this motto: ‘Always be prepared.’ So there I was, smack in the middle of the dance floor, armed with my trusty Canon EOS R5, and you bet I had that face/eye detection feature cranked up. I opted for the Zone AF mode, which gives me this handy box to control where my focus goes. Back in the old days of photojournalism, we used to call this move a "hail Mary" - holding the camera above your head, praying you'd nail the shot. But not anymore! With that large LCD flip screen, I could hold the camera high and tilt the screen downwards, right towards me. No more guesswork; I could frame and capture those moments like a pro.

Now, lighting. I had not one, not two, but three off-camera Speedlite EL-1's in the game, all sporting those full CTO (correct to orange) gels. I dialed the camera's white balance to Tungsten to ensure no funky color shifting. You know what I'm talking about - that awkward moment when your subject looks like a glowing angel against an orange backdrop. Yeah, that's what we're avoiding here.

Oh, and here's the kicker - my on-camera Speedlite was always in ETTL mode, while those three off-camera Speedlites were each in their own groups, so I could boss them around individually. In this particular scenario, they were all set to manual flash output at 1/8th power.

I've honed this technique over the years - the ‘Triangle of Light.’ It's my secret sauce for adding layers of light without overpowering the natural ambiance. Trust me; it's all about being prepared for that epic moment rather than chasing it.

Just picture it: the groomsmen lifting Jared high into the air, his face beaming with pure joy, and the expressions of everyone around him - it's simply priceless. 📸🎉"
