Wedding Photography 101 PocketPSG

media_1306698119282.png

Wedding 101 takes you into an over 2 hour journey into the insights from Professional Photographer and seasoned instructor James Beltz, as he walks you through the things you need to be aware of as you contemplate shooting a wedding…

"I believe that a beginning professional should perform as a second shooter on 5 weddings, and watch that already seasoned pro as they negotiate a wedding event. Unfortunately that is not always possible. It is for this reason that I created this guide for the beginning professional so they at least don’t go into a wedding blind to what is in store for them. I cant take everyone with me as I shoot a wedding, but I can at least provide them with insight before they go shoot one themselves…" – James Beltz

Following the same format as all of the other classes, you simply need to click, watch, and learn in this presentation style class. And you should probably take notes as well…. James not only takes you through an entire wedding process – including the interview, the pr-ceremony, the ceremony, and the Reception – but covers the minimum equipment requirements, as well as pointing you in the direction of the equipment you should consider adding so that you can be as successful as possible.
