SHINE – A Three Full Day Workshop for Wedding Photographers

SHINE is a three full day workshop for wedding photographers including multiple shoots, talks and editing tutorials. This is the culmination of everything I have learnt from 18 years of wedding photographer, 10 years of running workshops and 5 years of running a Patreon of over 200 wedding photographers. In these three days, I share with you EVERYTHING I know to help you become the best wedding photographer you can be.

The workshop will be held at an exclusive country house in Llangollen in the North Wales countryside, on the banks of the River Dee. SHINE will be limited to just 12 attendees and across the two days in which we will be shooting, we will have multiple models. We will cover mindset, approach, equipment, how to shoot creative and beautiful portraits (both in natural light and with off camera lighting), the fundamentals of how to light various parts of a wedding day (including group shots, speeches, reception and dancing) and how to edit the images we take on the workshop to give them impact.

Glencoe Wedding Photography Workshop – Scottish Highlands

Glencoe, one of the most iconic landscape photography locations in the whole of the Uk will be the location for our wedding photography workshop. Think landscape and wedding photography combined. From our base at Tyndrum just south of Glencoe, we’ll have access to some of the best scenery the stunning Scottish Highlands afford and so many opportunities to explore composition, lighting and create unique and amazing images whilst learning new techniques.

Areas we’ll be covering include:

• Posing and composition to create striking images with real wow in this amazing terrain.
• Using the landscape to create drama and impact.
• Selecting the best light source for the subject – flash on and off camera, natural light.
• Off Camera Flash – using single and multiple Speedlites for dramatic and fill in flash.
