Do you shoot weddings like Jeff Ascough does?

Feb 25, 2009

I attended a seminar by Jeff Ascough last weekend at the Focus on Imaging show (NEC, UK) about low light photography with the 5DMKII and very thought provoking it was too. One of his key principles is that he doesn't use flash at weddings - he shoots using available light only. Another principle was that he doesn't do formal group shots. He turns up and shoots what he sees, no posing, no controlling events. I am curious to know how many wedding photographers here shoot either with no flash, or no formals, or even both?
