Anirban and Rishika Brahma share their experiences of shooting with the Sony FE 35-mm F1.4 GM, a lens that has become an integral part of their shooting gear, and that delivers precise focus, optical excellence and broad versatility.
Indian weddings, in particular, are all about emotions. They are colourful, warm, inviting, nostalgic and filled with magical moments.
This is why both of us enjoy wedding photography It allows us to connect with our audience on an emotional level. When we deliver photographs that have captured expressions of happiness, or images that bring a smile on the faces of families, it fills us with joy and satisfaction, and we know that we have done a good job. The Sony FE 35-mm F1.4 GM helps us achieve just this!

The compact and lightweight lens has become an integral part of our gear regardless of the kind of assignment because it is so versatile and handy, without compromising image quality or resolution. Its focal length is extremely useful for groups, or individual portraits, long shots, mid shots, or close ups. Its fast aperture is perfect for low-light situations and allows us to blur backgrounds and foregrounds and focus only on the subject. This is especially useful while making photographs during the busy events of a wedding, where we want to focus on specific settings, moments or emotions.
