Andres and his groomsmen are all channeling their inner James Bond in this photo! This photo was taken at the Washington Athletic Club, where the bridal party was getting ready at before the wedding. Their lobby has a corner with a nice leather couch with an oil painting behind it. I immediately felt it was fitting to do a serious, badass, 007-esque shot here with the groomsmen. When orchestrating shots like this, it's important to position everyone in the most flattering posture and angle. I light on each and individual person at a time and stitch the photos together to create a final result like this. Don't be fooled by how effortless those groomsmen look! It's actually quite hard to stay in the same position for a period of time. Andres and his groomsmen definitely make it look easy.
