Destination Wedding Workshop

Dubrovnik Crotia, a lovely place for wedding photography.

I have been home for a couple of weeks now, and while I have been able to do some preliminary work on the holiday and workshop images, I am just now finding time to put the finishing touches on most of them.   The wedding workshop with David Beckstead and Gordon Jovic was jam packed with information, discussion and dialogue, beautiful models and best of all time for photography and for learning.

I did bring home David Beckstead’s workshop in a box, I have taken a sneak peak at some of the information and I know that it will be a great supplement and re-enforcement to all that I have learned.

Sunday, Oct 9 2011,

It has been a busy day  getting dinner ready for the family that could join us for turkey dinner!  I did have a bit of time to myself early this morning it fit in a short yoga routine.   While I would like to be able to post a photo of the amazing dinner, I have to admit that my dinner never looks as good as the one in the cookbook.  In fact I didn’t even get a picture of everyone around the table this year, as per usual.  I keeping with my post a day challenge, you will have to look a the beautiful people I worked with in Dubrovnik during the wedding workshop.

I did add some texture to the wall behind the couple, other than the large face above the couple the wall was pretty boring. The texture was provided by Kim Klassen Cafe, it is a great site with lots of information and textures to explore.

Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian family and friends, I hope your day was as good as mine.

 

 


Karen and Jon married September 16th,

After a week that threatened rain for their wedding Karen and Jon ended up with a beautiful sunny day for their wedding, now that I am home from holidays I am working on their photos. It was a joy to be a part of their day, and I am having fun all over again, so many great photos, so many great moments.  I am sure that for Karen, Jon and their families so many great memories. Here they stand looking over the Sirroco Golf Course, and the Foothills of Alberta, not long before they go to meet their guests at the reception.

Entered in the Landscapes with people, community photo challenge, check out the website for more great photography

More photos from the Funky Town Wedding Photography Workshop.  Christina Craft covered so many topics and provided lots of valuable information.  She is full of great energy, she kept people involved asking and answering questions and helping with demonstrations.  She provided lots of time and information about shooting brides, along with two great modes.  We found several difficult, but great location for doing portraits; we talked about working with available light, and using video light off camera flash.  We covered more things than can be mentioned in this short blog!

In short she and the workshop were inspiring, I learned a lot, and I am sure with time to review the day and the material I will be even happier that I made the investment.
