I recorded this video about a year ago for a workshop that I ended up stepping out of for some conflicting reasons, but I still feel heavy about the topic so wanted to share it here. This is MY VIEW on the current trend of Wedding Photographer Associates and how I feel this could impact the wedding photography industry. As a professional wedding photographer I value brides and grooms and that has truly molded my view. Please don't come at me in the comments. If you have a different view, I would love to hear it and even dialog back and forth on it. What I am not saying in this video is that having associates is a bad thing. I personally for the last 5 years have had a team of associates that I trained up and poured into and I loved that season. Just recently have I decided to pull back from having the team and focus on my family, educating, and pursuing the dreams the Lord has given me which put an end to the season of having a team. Having a team taught me a LOT. Having John Branch as a team member/ mentee taught me probably as much as he says I taught him. So nothing wrong with associate wedding photographers, I am talking about this new toxic trend where we want to double dip and pull the covers over our couples eyes.
There are so many ways for a wedding photographer to capture a wedding day. I could just tell you about it or I can show you through this free wedding photography behind the scenes video. Whether you are an established wedding photographer who just wants some free new photography tips or you are a beginner wedding photographer who needs guidance, I hope this video can help! I will walk you through how I prepare to the day, how i shoot all parts of the wedding, how to get the best out of your bride and groom portraits, and how to finish the wedding day strong. This is a FREE Wedding Photography course so share it with your friends!
