Shooting workshop signups will begin October 19th for all registered PartnerCon attendees. See the Shooting Workshops page of the PartnerCon website for ALL of the details.

About the workshop: As the days get shorter, you will probably find that more and more of your weddings have the couple portrait time scheduled after dark.  For some this will be an exhilarating change, while others will cringe at the thought.  Sean and Mel McLellan (McLellan Style) and Peter and Whitney Carlson (Dove Wedding Photography) have learned to find the light, in even the darkest environment, and when they can't find it, they create it through various simple, portable, and efficient means.  Whitney and Peter find speed lights to be their greatest asset while Sean and Mel create using primarily video lights.  They've teamed up to show you the best of both worlds in the ultimate night shooting workshop in beautiful New Orleans!  Whether you love to shoot at night, or find the whole process terrifying, there will be something in it for you! 

Topics covered will be:

How to use speed lights in a night shooting environment

Utilizing video lighting

Inexpensive lighting options

Finding the ambient light at night

Proper lighting techniques for portraiture

Working quickly with lighting on a wedding day

Creative, portable lighting setups for the photographer who doesn't want to carry everything!

and more...

Supplying a pocket wizard is encouraged, but not required, for participation in the strobe portion of the shoot.

Following the shoot, get the full experience of Nashville's awesome community by joining both studios for food and drink over mini mentoring sessions and discussions on community building, mentoring, and how to facilitate both in your community.
