Canon EOS 5D - 100th/sec - F7.1 - ISO 250 - Manual - Posed

A "standard" cake shot. If the room has a nice low, white ceiling, bouncing the flash gives a much nicer, diffused and even illumination.

For the cake shots you are sometimes limited with respect to composition as you normally don't have a say where it will be.

It is a good idea, during your earlier meetings with the couple, or reccie visits, to ask where it will be so you can be prepared. Even ask on the day if necessary so you know where to be at the right time.

I decided to shoot at this angle to include the reflection of some of the guests who were clambering to get a shot of the couple too. You will see more of this in the next shot.

Lens 24-70 2.8 L at 28mm
