How to use lighting for wedding photography? Is it better to use flash or high sensitivity and slow shutter speed?

When taking a solo photo of the bride at the bride’s home, you can shoot without a flash and create a sense of light and shadow. When taking group photos, use a jump flash to ensure that the faces of the characters are clear and the shadows are not obvious.

The same is true for ceremonies. It stands to reason that ambient light will bring better results, but ambient light is difficult to control, and it is not as slow as you imagine. The brightness of ambient light can generally be guaranteed. Note that the faster shutter speed is not the normal exposure for full-frame evaluation, but the normal exposure of the subject within the range of ambient light. In other words, most areas in the picture other than the subject are underexposed or dark, unless there is backlighting. Generally, flash or non-flash is used randomly, and the effect of blindly flash or non-flash is too single.

If you want to shoot a wedding, it is better to use an external flash. The internal flash is very reflective and has heavy shadows. To avoid the dark background you mentioned, you can use slow sync. The flash mode should display SLOW.
