This shot has become one of my all time favorites, and really it was just a matter of staying alert.
The mood was slow and romantic as the bride and groom began to dance. I fired off a few frames, capturing this moment just before the groom moved his mouth away from the bride's forehead.
Unfortunately, the lighting wasn't great. It was night time under a canopy with artificial lights. To compensate for the poor lighting, I bounced my non-diffused flash into the white canopy ceiling.
The result was nice, well-balanced light that even lit up the background enough to keep it from appearing that they were dancing in a sea of darkness.
I was happy with the final product.
