Thanks for your comment.

Shot with 20D and 30D Canon 85 1.8, Sigma 70-200 2.8 and Tamron 17-50 2.8. ISO 800-3200.

No flash, most were shot wide open at either 1.8 or 2.8 depending on which lens. Some may have been at 3.2. I tried to shoot at no slower shutter speed than 1/125 to avoid blur. When using the 17-50 I may have used slower shutter speeds.

With this kind of lighting it's a juggling act to get a high enough shutter speed to avoid blur and to keep the ISO down as low as possible to avoid noise.
