What’s in a headshot?
9:00 - 10:30 AM
You sit them down and go click, right? How hard can it be to create a headshot? There’s more to headshot than just creating a visual roadmap of someone’s face. If you approach headshots from the mindset that a headshot is an investment and not a cost, you can help differentiate yourself from the competition. We will explore the basics in lighting, composition and emotion. Look at some client images and maybe have time for questions? The goal of this program will be to educate you a little, perhaps too to inspire you with some ah-ha moments and maybe a few laughs if time permits.

Creating the Unforgettable Wedding Client Experience
11:00 am - 12:30 pM
We will discuss how to take control of the wedding day schedule to maximize photo opportunities and ensure happy couples that will be clients for life. In 30 years of wedding photography I have learned strategies to make the wedding day flow smoothly, be prepared for the unexpected, consider the needs of the venue, and make the bride and groom have an experience that is beyond their expectations. I encourage an interactive class and will have time for Q&A as well.
