Over the last few years, it seems like there has been one wedding after another. They’re usually pretty fun, but always a challenge with the little one, except maybe this wedding—this one was awesome.
Natural History Museum Of Los Angeles | Fujifilm X100F
The wedding was held at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, which is very kid-friendly, and they were serving alcohol next to the skeletons of a T Rex and a Triceratops. It doesn’t get any cooler than that.
We also had access to two of the halls: the Hall of African Mammals and the Hall of North American Mammals. It was kind of a little kid’s dream, or a photographer’s dream.
For all these shots, I used the Fujifilm X100F. It was pretty dark, but the X100F managed to capture the details.
In these situations, I prefer to adjust the exposure compensation dial to the minimum and let the shadows frame the shots. With the correct aperture, around f2-f4, the ISO rarely dipped below 2500, so the images all turned out pretty clean.
This was our first time coming to this particular museum. All my dad’s friends keep recommending it, and I now see why.
It was very fun for all the kids to see the life-like stuffed animals. Our daughter started getting very tired and cranky pretty early on, and I was forced to pull out the secret weapon.
Sugar!
Lemonade. It was her first time having sugar, but it seemed to do the trick at least for about half an hour.
It’s genuinely incredible how easily you can capture high-quality images with such a small camera these days.
