pictureLOVE: mock wedding and controlled lighting workshop


Join us on June 13, 2010 for a special day dedicated to controlled lighting/off-camera flash and a mock-wedding!  Here's how the day pans out for your registration fee of $175; mock wedding ONLY, for pros who want to participate in this uber-fun day for some kick-a$$ portfolio work - $50 - please email for the super fun 'theme' info.  CHILDCARE AVAILABLE!!! $10/child full day, $5/child wedding only for models and/or photographers!  SPECIAL RATE for former DLS attendees, too!!!

10:00 am Wedding Theory: Starting at 10am sharp, we'll be launching into what I'm going to call wedding theory, which will cover the essence of how most weddings go down, what the 'money' shots are, contract considerations, and plenty of other wedding-ish stuff that is good to know about, like dealing with high-energy kids and mothers, goofy groomsmen, and camera-shy bridesmaids.

12:00pm Lunch Break: please bring a bagged lunch; coffee, tea, pop, juice & water will be provided as well as some munchies & snacks.  Please note this is NOT a catered event!

12:30pm Lighting:  Immediately after lunch, the lovely and talented Reanna of Blackbird will be walking us through some of the finer points of controlled lighting and off-camera flash.  Following the brief presentation on different styles and lighting effects, Hope will demonstrate how to set up and use a very simple studio strobe set-up and discuss some different places to find funky, affordable alternatives to expensive studio lights.  Reanna will demonstrate a typical on-location set-up and participants will have an opportunity to try out the infamous vintage Quirky Berkey strobe used for most of my studio-style work.

2:30 pm Mock Wedding: Following the theory and lighting portion of our program, we're going to concentrate on the two biggest parts of the wedding: the ceremony and the formals.  We'll accomplish this by spending a couple of hours shooting a mock wedding, complete with a couple of ceremony walk-throughs, a bridal party in full regalia, and a couple of other surprises that are sure you give you a good run for your money... as an added bonus, you'll have access to the Quirky Berkey if you want to do some indoor shots!

FREE PICTURES - models needed!!! I am recruiting up to 6 males and 6 females for this shoot.  Couples welcome - might be a nice way to get some seriously fun and funky free engagement or overdue couples photos!!!   To keep it interesting for the participants, please send an email to h dot walls at shaw dot ca for complete (top-secret) details...
