Vancouver Wedding Photo's Prices and Equipment
What equipment and facilities do we have and why is hi-end equipment important? There are some truisms in wedding photography - all things being equal - more training and experience produces better portraits. It's why your uncle with a good camera can't usually produce the same images as a trained and experienced wedding photographer. The second part is equally true. Better equipment in the hands of a skilled photographer produces better photos.
Now photography has top-end equipment such as the Canon Mark11 5D - 21 mega pixels ). We also have 17 mega pixel camera (Canon 1DS Mark 11), L series lens (Lens include 24-70mm, 70-200mm, 17-35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 10-22mm and high- end lighting power packs.

About Lighting
What's the big deal about light. Second to emotion which you supply on your wondrous day correct lighting is one of the least understood technical aspects in wedding photography and one of the most important.
Its not a simple matter of if there is light shoot and if there none blast a flash. The true professional wedding photographers at Now photography know that its about finding the best angle so light is not casting harsh shows or making you squint.
If needed we put the bright sunlight behind you and subtly add back in fill light with off camera or bounce flash or strobe light or reflectors. Indoors we may have to bounce light off a wall or find a window of light.
Its not always just about using natural light. Sometimes the quality of light is poor and we have to create flattering light. We occasionally use a video light or a studio strobe light. But we avoid blasting light directly at our couples - especially direct on camera flash.
