This past Sunday I got to
second shoot my first wedding for Shayla J. Photography! The wedding took place
at Winfrey Point on White Rock Lake in Dallas, Texas and it was so much fun!! The
bride & groom were gorgeous, the décor was super cute, and the guests were
basically rockstars! I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding to second shoot
for my first time. I can’t wait to show everyone the pictures I took! However, I
of course won’t be posting them until after Shayla (the main photographer) post
them on her blog first. So be on the lookout for them sometime in the following
weeks! :)
In other related news, in
exactly 2 weeks from today I will be going to Scarlett & Stephen’s wedding
photography workshop! I am beyond excited to attend! Click HERE to see my
original blog post about it. For those of you who have been on the fence about
going, there are still some spots left for their workshops in Myrtle Beach, SC
& Dallas, TX. So if you’ve been wanting to go, be sure and buy your ticket
soon!! And if that wasn’t enough to entice you, check out this awesome workshop
review video!
So I’m a member of this
amazing community for photographers called Pixtus. This forum used to be called
Texas Photo Forum but they have now opened it up to photographers all over.
However, the community is still primarily made up of Texas members. Anyway, there
are many reasons why I think this community is awesome!
1)You can post your pictures on there and get honest
critiques/feedback from local photographers.
2)Big name photographers like, Leslie Spurlock, is an
active member in the community.
3)And last but not least, some photographers will
occasionally post a thread that they’re looking for a second
shooter/assistant/tag along. This leads me to the basis of this post…
I got my first second shooting job!!! I will be second shooting for the talented Shayla J.Photography on May 27th, 2012 at White Rock Lake in Dallas, TX!! I
am beyond excited and grateful for this amazing opportunity! I can’t wait to
share my experience with everyone!
Well, this is the last week
of the Spring 2012 semester at UNT and I still have 2 finals left. So I better
get back to studying! :(
