Schedule and Talk Descriptions

Boring Boring Group Shots! Or are they? (Jon Jenkins)

Thursday 13 January 09:00-12:00 (Group A)
 
Thursday 13 January 13:00-16:00 (Group B)

Thursday 13 January 17:00-20:00 (Group C)

Jon will show you how you can get creative while adding fun to the wedding day, setting up over 50 photos from the bridal party alone. ‘The Groups’ doesn’t have to be formal, boring and time consuming; getting a good flow on the day can create some amazing photos that always sell. Having a good mixed bag of ideas on the day can truly add the variety of images of the wedding and can add those extra couple of pages to the album to help build the sale. Throughout this session Jon will be working with Richard showing you how he works quickly and efficiently by having a good flow on the wedding day.

Included in this session is a talk from Richy about his own style of work, showing you how he achieves his amazing results from the concept through to print.

Mark will start by setting up some WOW shoots with multiple models, he will then go through the workflow from camera and then out to print for qualifications and awards.

He will also be using 2 members as guinea pigs to demonstrate the difference between styles and shooting to get a great shots.

This will be very interactive session, as well as very different from the normal, guiding photographers to show any one can do it.
