Kansas City Weddings: Mr. & Mrs. Wednesday Workshop, July 13th, 2011

Posted in Event, Mr & Mrs

Do you know Mr. & Mrs.?

If not, and you are planning a wedding…you should.

It is the most delectable place that showers engaged couples with inspiration, assistance, and peace of mind.

“Who is it for?” you ask…

From the DIY to the full-service wedding…any Bride & Groom that is ready to have their wedding day be the celebration that will be remembered pleasantly for a lifetime.  Check it out.

Let’s talk about Wednesday Workshops, shall we….   In July, I was asked to join some of the top local wedding photographers to speak about the important details regarding photography.  I can not describe to you just how informative it was.  I, personally, am long-winded and could talk hours upon end at consultations (and maybe some of my lovely past Brides who still peak at my blog occasionally can confirm, haha) about all the details about the photography process.  This particular Wednesday Workshop was split up among 5 pros (RPM Photography, RJ Stills, Slater Studios, Photos Edge, and MEEEE!) who each spoke about a particular subject matter.  It was a way to dive behind the scenes of what we photographers do and how we get the best images, and also share with these new Brides what to expect.

These two KOOL KATS are Erin & Marco from Photos Edge.  The dynamic duo talked about what to look for in a photographer to pick the perfect one for you.This is Melissa of Slater Studios.This is Melissa showing how to achieve some awesome poses for your wedding portraits.  Notice how deliciously sweet Jen Fyffe (Event coordinator of Savvy Wedding) and her future Hubby pose. 🙂Meet Rusty of RJ Stills.  He got to chat all about engagement portrait sessions and how to make them unique and personable. Great ideas!The beautiful Rachel of  RPM Photography.  She had fantastic advice for the wedding day.  She also video recorded the workshop, which I believe Mr. & Mrs. will use to help pass all the info goodness on to future engaged couples.

And lastly…I got to geek-out about photography post-production.  (I’m working on the computer)So to demonstrate, I posed my handy-dandy volunteer models (Erin and Marco of Photos Edge) to give a sassy pose and I later showed the room some of the different looks that are popular in post production and the differences between.

  1. The Original Image
  2. Photofinished Image (skin, eyes, minor flattery,…etc)
  3. A subtle color vintage look
  4. A subtle aged black & white
  5. A more moody, contrasty black & white
  6. A light & cleaner black & white
