In the previous post, I mentioned that on Sunday I was the leader of the first-ever ShootStyle Workshop!  We had such a great group of participants (22 photographers from all over the place!) and wonderful models (6 beautiful couples) who got together to work on posing couples.  Anyway, I wanted to post some of the behind-the-scenes action from the day.  All of these shots are courtesy of my good friend (and fellow ShootStyler) Stacey Doyle.  I would like to point out that while I thought the morning of the shoot (and still think, actually) that the white sweater and purple vest that I am wearing were TOTALLY cute, I would have been better off in a down coat that went down to my ankles- it was THAT CHILLY!    (By the way, doesn’t it look like I am trying to take over the world in the upper right pic rather than teach a photography workshop?  These pics crack me up- thank you for capturing all of these moments, Stacey!!)

On Sunday I was pleased to be the leader of the first-ever ShootStyle Workshop!  We had such a great group of participants (22 photographers from all over the place!) and wonderful models (6 beautiful couples) who got together to work on posing couples.  I’m going to post more on the workshop itself in my next post, but for now I wanted to say thank you to all of the photographers who came out to hear me speak, thank you to all of our wonderful couples who braved the cold, and thank you to all of the ShootStyle photographers, Alicia Williams and Dana Berenson (our host and the owner of the incredible Stone Crop Gallery in Ogunquit, Maine.

I was bouncing around working with participants most of the day so I didn’t get to spend too much time with the awesome couples, but I wanted to post a few of my fave shots that I was able to grab:

If you follow my blog, you know that I spoke at Mystic5 this year with the fabulous Stacey Doyle.  Our talk was sponsored by my favorite vendor (ProDPI) and my favorite internet resource for photographers (ShootStyle).  This was my third year speaking, and Stacey and I spoke about two different approaches to wedding photography.  As usual, Mystic was an incredible event that was attended by photographers from all around the world!  My fellow speakers included some of my all-time favorites: David Williams, George Weir, and Jerry Ghionis, and after meeting some of the other presenters I have added a few more to that list!  If you are looking to dive into the business or if you just want to up your game, you should seriously consider attending Mystic6 next year!  It was so great to see so many Maine wedding photographers there!  Here are a few pics of me and Stacey Doyle during our seminar (courtesy of Earl Christie):
