Main Content
Every individual’s presence on a wedding day is significant, and our formal portraits are designed to celebrate that. This image features a non-binary person with short, dark, wavy hair and a warm, inviting smile. They are wearing a beautifully tailored, emerald-green suit paired with a crisp white shirt – a look that exudes confidence and personal flair. We capture these details to create images that are not just records, but artistic expressions of the day and the people.
The Vision Behind the Shot
This portrait was envisioned to highlight the subject’s individuality and happiness. The use of an EF85mm f/1.4L IS USM lens at 85mm, combined with a wide aperture of f/2.2, allows for a shallow depth of field. This technique effectively isolates the subject from the background, drawing the viewer’s eye directly to their expression and the exquisite details of their attire. The fast shutter speed of 1/5000 second, likely chosen for the lighting conditions, also ensures sharpness and clarity in the captured moment. The indistinct background keeps the focus firmly on the person, creating a clean and elegant portrait.

Technical Approach
Captured in England using a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV camera, the technical settings for this photo – 85mm focal length, f/2.2 aperture, 1/5000s shutter speed, and base ISO – were chosen specifically to achieve this look: a sharp subject against a softly blurred background, even in potentially bright conditions. This technical precision serves the artistic goal of creating stunning, focused portraits.
