Infrared Wedding Photography

Digital IR Wedding Photography
Thought I'd show you an example of a recent digital infrared photograph captured using a Canon EOS 350D (IR converted camera body) ... this IR black and white image was shot fairly late in the day so the invisible infrared didn't actually show through as much as I'd hoped for.

The photograph was captured on the little beach where many a small fishing boat can be found - the couple in question, from the United States, wanted a few surreal images and they wanted to make the most of the local scenery having just attended their Wedding Blessing within Conwy Castle which can be viewed in the background across the estuary.

What this image does show is how infrared alters the tones in the sky, water and human flesh.

So, does IR work with people in the shot - yes, it does ... however, I'd recommend shooting nearer to midday and perhaps nearer the summer months.

Hey Jane! This is one of our favorite photos too. We love how the IR images came out, they're so unusual and different!
