Down the aisle glare by myhrhelper

Down the aisle glare

I am downloading this photo only to get advice should I run into the sun glare issue again in the future.

I think I used matrix metering and wonder if had I done spot metering it would have been better.
Did you have a lens hood on?

I was going to ask the same as @swilde. Additionally, you might need to move yourself just slightly to allow your subjects to block the glare.

Yes I did. This was my first wedding and I was asked on Thursday to be the photographer for the Tuesday wedding. the groom told me where he wanted me (the right side moving backwards down the aisle). I tried to stay somewhat low not to block the view from other people. This was actually one of the better shots some had more glare spilling on the faces. As they got closer it was better. My next wedding won't have that problem (March 15th) but I just wondered what I could have done different next time if I'm ever in that situation again.

@myhrhelper The only thing I can think of is move to the other side of the aisle. I wonder in Brendan can help. @angima

Well the problem is that you have the sun coming into the lens.

The only real way to fix this is stop it.

you can either get them before the sun comes into the lens or use them to block the sun (which is what I would of done). That way you would have the added benifit of having a rim light but you most likey have to change to spot metering.
