TIP 1: Create Intimate Wedding Moments with a Zoom Lens

Use the 35-150mm focal range to step into the scene without intruding—perfect for capturing genuine expressions from a distance.

“I wanted to capture a candid moment between the bride and groom for this shot below. The 35-150mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD (Modèle A058) allowed me to feel as if I was “in” the scene, as opposed to being far away and zooming in a bunch.”

TIP 2: Capture Genuine Smiles in Candid Couple Shots

Zoom in for privacy and emotion—ideal for preserving natural laughter and quiet moments between the bride and groom.

“For this shot, I wanted the groom to whisper something special in the bride’s ear. I think their genuine smiles shining through speak for themselves! By zooming in, I was able to give them privacy for this precious moment.”

TIP 3: Highlight Wedding Details Like Rings and Accessories

Use longer focal lengths and wide apertures to draw attention to bridal jewelry with soft, flattering background blur.

“I wanted to make sure to capture the details of the bride’s ring. Having a longer focal length and wider aperture helped to create that beautiful blur and attention solely on the ring.”

TIP 4: Tell the Story with Dynamic Walking Portraits

Shoot on the wide end of the 35-150mm lens while moving with the couple to create immersive, storytelling-style wedding photos.

“To capture this image, we walked alongside the bride and groom. By being on the wider end of the lens and walking with them, it gave us a more “in-the-moment” feel than if we had zoomed in and caught them at a distance.”

TIP 5: Balance Background Atmosphere with Subject Focus

Blur busy backgrounds while maintaining context—great for artistic wedding portraits that feel rich but not cluttered.

“We wanted to capture all the details going on the background while still maintaining the attention on our couple. By zooming in and using a wide aperture, we were able to blur the details so they wouldn’t be too distracting, but still present. I also had the bride look away from the camera, so she wasn’t tilting her chin down to the camera too much.”

TIP 6: Keep It Natural with Pets and Playful Candid Shots

Capture relaxed, in-motion moments with couples and their dogs using longer focal lengths for unobtrusive, organic imagery.

“We wanted a candid feel for this photo so we had the 35-150mm zoomed in quite a bit. When photographing with dogs, we’ve learned that walking shots are perfect. While our couples look at each other, the dogs do their thing, and it produces a natural looking image!”
