The article concentrates on my approach to lighting, with a reference to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/about\/books\/\">books<\/a>\u00a0I&#8217;ve written on flash photography.<\/p>\n<p>For the photographs I selected to accompany the article, I chose what I think are images representative of my style &#8211; clean and crisp with strong colors. Over the years, as my style in wedding photography matured, I find that I tend to shoot more and more in an unfussy, uncluttered way &#8230; a way that I hope will prove to be timeless.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/images\/publication\/PPAmag_Feb2016_p94-95_900px.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"574\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/images\/publication\/PPAmag_Feb2016_p98-100_900px.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"574\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/images\/publication\/PPAmag_Feb2016_p96.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"957\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>More info about these images<\/h2>\n<p>For more images from each of these weddings, check out the these accompanying links to my <a href=\"https:\/\/oneperfectmoment.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">One Perfect Moment<\/a>\u00a0wedding and portrait blog.
