I love having a lighting assistant on hand when shooting weddings, especially during the group and bridal shoots. I have been asked a number of times the advantages, so I have added the following page to my website explaining why I sometimes use lighting and how beneficial a lighting assistant can be. Essentially, I am sure that all wedding photographers would choose to shoot in perfect natural light if they could, but what happens when the available light is not so perfect? What happens when the light is behind the couple as below, but you want more than a silhouette? Have a read here and let me know if you have any questions 😉
