Wedding Photography Workshop

Sponsored by SIGMA lenses and in conjunction with the Larz Anderson Auto Museum

Hunt’s Photo Education proudly presents our first Wedding Photography Workshop! The centerpiece of this workshop will be a full-day, hands-on, stylized/mock wedding shoot at the beautiful and historic Larz Anderson Auto Museum. Photographers will be led by Rebecca Wade, a local wedding photographer who has photographed well over 100 weddings over the past five years, along with wedding photographer Tessa Klingensmith. Attendees will learn everything from the proper equipment and technical skills to navigate a wedding day successfully. In addition, photographers will learn the importance of client communication, marketing strategy, and the back end of running a wedding photography business.
Anyone that registers for this workshop will also be able to attend our 2-part online Wedding Photography class sessions for no additional charge! These classes will not only provide a substantial background for our workshop, but also help build more of an understanding of what goes into each wedding!
Who Should Register
This workshop is an excellent opportunity for photographers that are looking to start out in wedding photography, as well as photographers that have a few weddings under their belt and are looking to get more focused information. This workshop is at an intermediate level and photographers should have a working knowledge of their camera as well as an understanding of exposure, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO.
Details About the Stylized, Mock Shoot
We will provide all of the basics elements of the wedding-day experience, including the bride and groom, the cake, the floral arrangements, the venue, the tux and the gown!
Lens support from SIGMA
Our friends at SIGMA lenses will also be providing lenses that you will be able to use for the day, including select low-aperture zooms and stunning prime lenses that will enhance your shooting experience!
