[W]hen we came away from last year’s FarmShop and sat down to look at all the posts from attendees one thing became very, very clear.  You want images to post online, you want content to build an online and social media presence and you want help with creating portfolios. Well like with so many things, Farm can help so we decided to add Shoot Days to our calendar of events. The first one was held at the very gorgeous venue Greenacres Woodland Weddings so of course we went for a lush, natural look but with edgy models in very modern wedding looks. New to the Farm team is the incredible wedding stylist Erica over at Mr & Mrs Unique and she really did work her magic and pull together all the looks so well.
I was really impressed with everything about the shoot. I’ve attended workshops before that were twice the price and nowhere near as informative or fun. Totally epic. roll on the next one.
We had four groups lead by our hugely talented mentors Mille Benbow, Dale Weeks, Jo from Enchanted Brides and Lisa Jane. Each group had time with models and real couples so our lovely attendees could work on both their portfolios and their directing skills. It was a fun day and I’ve seen so many cracking images from the attendees, just look at #photographyfarm on Instagram.
Huge thanks to everyone who came along and especially to our real couples and the behind the scenes helpers Matthew and Megan. Here are some of the shots from our mentors who set things up and then let everyone in their group take turns. If you think you would benefit from attending the next Shoot Day then stayed tuned as we are currently working on setting another one up for the Autumn.
