In the mountains of Banff with forest fires around us. A natural light photo shoot. Behind the scenes of all the best photos.
A little different than my typical engagement session. Hopefully you enjoy.

    Cool office but please pay attention to the road and don’t make videos while driving 🤦‍♂️

    Absolutely stunning, Taylor. I've got an engagement session this weekend myself and this has been a big inspiration to me to try new things during it. Usually I just kinda let the couple do what they're going to do, since that's the most natural and I still plan on doing that, but you've showed me some new directions to have them go into. Thanks dude.

    Cool shoot. All the best Taylor!

    Lovely video, I really enjoy them! Where do you place the gopro on you while shooting?

  6. Christina Friesen says

    When shooting at 1.4 do you still focus on your clients eyes to get the sharpest image? Ive been struggling with sharp images at even 1.8 or 2.8 aperture

    love the photos, but her dress is so beautiful

  8. Rocky Jones says

    Taylor, your depth of field is pretty shallow at 1.4 when you are close to the couple. What do you tend to focus on? I'm assuming her eye? Do you set your focus point and then leave it there? I notice some focus and recompose but not much or am I just not seeing it? Thanks!

    Amazing!!!!

    also, at 11:11 you pull out your other camera and holding 2 cameras. Are you using the auto focus in the right hand or are you simply clicking. How is it that the photo that came from your right hand came out so clear?

  11. Zacyfarms22 says

    at 10:48 it sais 500 on the top of your camera. Is this your ISO or your shutter speed? What typical shutter speed or Iso do you like to stay around?

    Hey Taylor! I want to join your Patreon but is it in USD? For some reason I thought you were Canadian…

    Curios… the only thing that i miss after my switch to Sony A9 and Sony/Zeiss lenses is the Nikkor 58 1.4 – i loved it 🙂
    Great job Taylor – i love your way to show us your wedding work

    Best wishes from Germany 🙂

    Hi Taylor and thank you for all your fantastic content I really enjoy seeing how you work and have also invested in your presets as a way to support what you do. I do have a few questions if I may though please?

    1) do you ever use a flat picture profile to shoot photos?

    2) do you tend to expose for highlights or the shadows?

    3) when you are firing off so many shots and moving your position could you do a video on your camera setup and technique for how you so quickly find focus as you move and switch cameras.

    Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing your answers if you have time.

    Kind regards.

  21. Sándor Nemes says

    Is there a video about how you reach this colors, and atmosphere? Nice job as usually 🙂

  22. ACID SNOW says

    i love natural light photography!
    thanks for sharing this bts of the engagment photoshoot!

  23. Amber Gainey says

    I love you! Why do I have to push my shutter button half down and you don't?

  24. Marek Fischer says

    Hi Taylor, I am wondering how did you strapped that GoPro on your DSLR and where it was mounted. Because your flashlight holder is empty. Thanks!
