    In this video, I want to give you some tips and tricks that will stop you from ever blaming the location, lighting, or couple for your photos not being the best they can be.
    Photographing couples brings a whole host of problems, different body types, shapes, issues, confidence level, etc, etc. I want to simplify all of that and teach you how, using lighting and posing alone, you can take a glorious photo of any couple, anywhere.
    I've been a professional photographer for over two decades, I've won dozens of awards, photographed thousands of weddings, and that means I've got more experience in the field than almost anyone else around. These videos are a culmination of this experience designed to help you expand and improve as a photographer and even as a business owner! Enjoy!

    I love that the male /female heights are not ideal because that is very often the reality. You showed a lot of great techniques to bring the female eye level to the male lip level (ideal). What do you think of a 2 follow-up episodes: "Shooting couples in soft window light" and "Shooting couples in harsh outdoor light"?

    Great material to learn. I went through the video three times by now searching for details and each time found something interesting. I've been rather fun of natural, hunting good moments, but You turned the posing and light into arts. When I watch now clips of other photographers I discover so many imperfections with legs, hands and light. Thank You very much for Your teaching, good luck

    I wish that I'd found this 2 weeks ago. I am an amateur DSLR photographer and I mostly do landscapes, it's just what I love. I was asked to photograph a friends wedding and while the photos turned out well, after seeing this I have a thousand ideas on how to redo the shots after the service. Time to ask them if they want a redo on the couple shots. Thankyou for doing this, I've probably learned more about posing and shooting couples from your videos than I have from any other source.

    So grateful for your time and effort in providing this and other educational videos. Even though I spend most of my time photographing Aussie Veterans in a bush setting and gifting these pic's to them after our weekend /weeks together, the tip's I get from your video's are very relevant and useful. I don't actually direct their poses, I'm just more aware of those candid moments utilising their natural quirkyness and habits. I am always looking for better lighting opportunities in all of my photography pursuits, thanks to your insight and inspiration. Looking forward to your future video's. 👏😁
