How about one of you sitting on a chair and the other behind the chair with on hand on the back of the chair?
If you are on Windows, you can use the free program Tinta to cull many of the images. Set the thumbnail size to one of the large options and delete the ones you don’t like with the delete key.
I have the 24-70mm as well, but only the one camera. I’m not a fan of changing lenses either, but I will if I have to.
I have used the 1.2 lenses for indoor dinner events when the lights are down for a presentation and they worked really well.
I will go to the location the night before.
Thanks for the reply,
I asked the client what their expectations are. They just want shots the can put in the local paper. I could not get more specifics other than “journalistic shots”
I am familiar with the location, just not at night. I am going there tonight to take test shots.
I have the wider lenses for the Christmas tree and people around it and establish shots. There will be some time before sunset that I can use the longer lenses.
Your tips on composition are great! If I use brightly lit backgrounds, I can use the flash to fill in the faces.
I will definitely prioritize the light! A well lit picture is worth a thousand poorly lit ones. I will look for that tonight when I am there for a scene eval.
Fortunately, it should not get colder than 45 degrees
Thank you so much! There is enough here I need to read it multiple times to get it all.
