How to Take Wedding Ring Shots – Arkansas Wedding Photography

One of my favorite parts of shooting a wedding is the wedding-ring shot. It's one of my favorite images to capture because it requires a lot of creativity, patience and skill to get a visually appealing and sharp image. It's especially challenging to capture this shot because I'm not always in the most ideal of locations - such as a dark church or a plain hotel room - so there's always some extra brainstorming to come up with something great for these shots. I love it! For ring shots, you really need a macro lens. The one I use isn't super expensive, but it does the job. Shooting at a higher f-stop makes for sharp stones in the rings, so I try and shoot no lower than f/10 or f/12, but my preference if I have enough light is to shoot around f/18. When you set up this shot, look for lots of bright light. Use a backdrop that will create either a very classic set-up, or something that will help to tell the color story of the day. Here is a behind the scenes shot of one of my recent set-ups. I had already captured a dark, mirrored image of the...

Little Rock Photography Studio – Meredith Melody Photography

I have been at my new photography studio for a few months, now, and I am loving everything about it. Being located in Hillcrest in Little Rock  is amazing. I love it because the neighborhood is full of super nice people, is dog-friendly and has lots of eateries and boutiques. Parking is easy to find and there is a Kroger out my back door. I feel right at home! I wanted the studio to feel light, airy and modern, so I chose mostly white and black for the decor, as well as a few pops of red since that's my favorite color. The large room is where I do day-to-day editing, client communication and marketing. It's also my consult area where I meet with clients and hold image viewing appointments. The second area is my natural light studio, which is dedicated to shooting, hair and makeup. The light in the shooting room is dreamy even on the cloudiest of days, and because it's almost always bathed in light, it also happens to be Frank's favorite place to nap. Take a look around, and I hope to see you here soon! xo, Meredith...
