Hello All,
A friend of mine is having her rehearsal dinner at an Aquarium and has asked that I shoot photos of the night and the guests for her. The dinner is at night and so the aquarium will be dimly light in the main hall b/c of large windows to the outside, and throughout the rest of the aquarium, so you can better see the tanks. This will not be a sit down dinner, but heavy hors d'oeuvres, so there will be a lot of walking around and mingling. I have a digital Rebel XTi. Does anyone have any advice on what Aperture and Exposure would work best. I'm feeling like it might be difficult to have the aquariums look nice in the background without the people coming out fuzzy, or have the people come out sharp without a large flash being reflected on the tanks. Any advice?
Should I bring my tripod and telephoto lens? I'm thinking maybe I can sit back from the crowd and zoom in on their moments. This might alow a longer exposure and better natural light from the tanks. Is that a silly idea??
I would appreciate any input you have to share!!
Thanks,
Lauren B.
