I use to really struggle with reception noise, too... now we use a combination of Dfine and Boutwell's Smooth-A-Matic action, and the images are super creamy! Just play around with stuff and see what fits your style, but regardless of what glass you're swinging, you should be able to smooth out alot of that background noise.

And I am in love love love with Michelle's dress. I adore these vintage style gowns - I was a portrait collar one myself when the time comes. I have to ask the same question as MCH, what settings have you got in these. I have Aperture down and I have Shutter speed down but the relationsip between them in low light with no flash is KILLING me! Either everything is so underexposed there is no point, or I have ISO high enough to cause major noise (though apparently Noise Ninja will deal with some of this) or everything is mucho blurr-o. Anyway, sorry for the tutorial request on your blog...*blush* Again, these are so amazing and I think the candid nature of them is so lovely. These are just so phenomenal, Jenna!

You seem to capture the small moments, the important look on some one's face. My compliments! Are you patient, is that what helps here? Or do you just have an eye or feeling for these moment? Photo 1 is just a beautiful shot, telling them forever what it looked like. Photo 7: What did you do? There doesn't seem to be focus anywhere?, maybe on the left glass? I love the shot, I had to look several times to see what was going on, it's the toast!! And now I love it even more. Photo 16: What a great shot, flip flops on the side! Love it. Photo 20 is one of my favorites because it captures SO MUCH! I think this one is good for a serious contest. Photo 21: WOW, that lady running for it. Awesome capture. Again, your shutter freezes her. Last Question: What are your settings when you take pictures of people dancing? I do that often and am still struggling with that. I don't use a flash and my speed is that low that people are blurry in my photo's. I am getting better but I am curious what you do? Flash... cause I didn't think so? Speed? Aperture? ISO? Do people really have complete photo boots at their wedding? What a great idea that is!
