Christmas Snow Themed Night Couple Photoshoot with Kaidi & Ivy

This is a simple themed couple shoot done on Christmas Eve 2017. A kind resident of Marsiling spent his time, effort and money to spice up the neighbourhood during special occasions. For this Christmas, he included a snow machine. He even set timings for the finale, such that it was like a professionally scheduled performance.

Apart from the crowd, the ambient light was dim and the snow was being blown by the strong fan. A fast shutter speed was required to "slow down" and capture the snow. The conditions were extremely harsh.

I couldn't set up any light modifier due to the crowd; moreover, the "snow" would have gotten my equipment wet within seconds. Throughout the shoot, my lens was kissed by the "snow" many times. I used my speedlite to bounce light onto the couple's faces to keep the skin smooth, running it on ETTL mode so that we could move into the spots whenever possible to take a few quick snaps before moving away.
