Photography Workshop by PurePhoto + SMP

November 8th. 2010 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 13 comments

We’ve been working with the team at PurePhoto on a fun new project that we’re absolutely dying to tell you about. It’s a totally comprehensive, no-holds-barred ONLINE photography workshop geared specifically to brides and grooms-to-be. The thing is, we get a TON of questions from couples who are so hoping to get that SMP style photography with their own wedding images, but are kind of lost as to where to begin. Especially if they don’t necessarily have the budget to pay for the heavy hitters. Enter, Ryan Phillips and Robert Evans...two world renowned photographers who specialize in picture perfect wedding photography and are chomping at the bit to tell you just how to approach your own wedding day photography.

So here’s the deal. Ryan and Robert will be hosting a completely comprehensive wedding photography workshop on Wednesday, November 17th with slots open at 7PM and 10PM EST and will be tackling ALL of the questions and concerns that we get on a daily basis from brides-to-be. Here are some of the topics that they will cover…

  • How to look your best in all your shots!
  • How to determine your wedding photography budget.
  • Discuss typical packages and show you what you should be getting for your money.
  • What photographers are really showing you in their portfolio and whether your photographer has the experience to shoot at the level you want.
  • The importance of having a photography timeline and how to sync it with your wedding planner’s general timeline.
  • The importance of seeing your photographer before the wedding.
  • How to avoid the headache of wrangling family for pictures.
  • Details are what get your wedding published! We’ll show you how to get the most out of your detail shots – and yes, it means planning time to shoot them.

And all of this coming from two guys who have literally worked with the most famous people in the world to photograph the most famous weddings in the world (we’re talking Tom + Katie and Brad + Jennifer, people). This is a REALLY cool opportunity to educate yourself on how wedding photography should work and how to get the most out of your photography dollars. The workshop cost is $29.

    what is a webinar? is this chat-room style or will there be streaming video with live questions? do you need a certain speed connection to be able to participate?

  6. Nine,

    The webinar will have live video of Rob and I as we talk. You can use any machine to log-in and the connection should be fine on most computers. You will be able to submit questions live through the web and we will answer them as they are fed to us.

    The first 30 minutes or so will be information from Rob and I and the last bit will be all live questions from Brides. Any questions, email me ryan (@) ryanphillips.com. I hope to see you there...

    -Ryan
