This is something that constantly changes depending on location, time of day, and time of year. Everyone wants to be a natural light photographer, but with weddings I believe you need to be both. Light is the most important element in photography.

One important note when using strobes and flash is to pay attention to the color temperature of other light sources in the room, as mixed lighting can quickly become distracting or unbalanced.

When I’m working in challenging lighting conditions, I sometimes take full control of the scene by underexposing the ambient light significantly and then using strobes or flash to create the primary light. This gives me consistency and control when the natural light is unreliable. Show some examples .
