This four day workshop covers the following: posing (bride alone, bride and groom together, and groups); lighting (natural and artificial, including on and off camera flash and using multiple flash); capturing details (rings, cake, etc.); working inside a church, including shooting moving targets; reviewing different styles of shooting (classic and photojournalistic). Louise also discusses the "emotional" side of the shoot: how to reflect the client's needs photographically; how to work unobtrusively; how to create the right atmosphere. The workshop also encompasses both workflow and file management (including working with online services), and such business considerations as pricing, album creation, and promotion (portfolio development, web sites, sales techniques, etc).
