I have a Church Wedding coming up where no flash is allowed, and the Bride is black. I have gained access to the Church
under the correct lighting (same as Wedding) to take a couple of quick test shots (attached).
This was with a Nikon D7000 and a 24 to 70mm 2.8 lens. Both shots are at 2000 ISO. My question is really will this work for a
black bride or could I/should I ramp up the ISO further - any thoughts would be appreciated?

Shoot at iso 3200 at f5.6 and over expose slightly (+0.3) to avoud losing facial detail. You'll be shooting raw which should make life easier too, I assume...

Thanks for the advice. I will attend their rehearsal and test the above suggestions. Much appreciated.
Remember Nikons hold highlight detail well, so you can afford to give more exposure than you've shown here...
