How to Shoot Prom Photography

I had the pleasure of photographing my nephew and his date for prom. I wanted to give you all a look at how I work with couples and parents for prom photos. Thanks for tuning in if you have any questions, comments, or best practices feel free to share in them in the comments. My goal is for us all to grow together.

Michelle is so cute ❤ I love seeing her pop in. This is so fun being at the shoot with you!

[@leroytademy]

Ha ha she definitely a sweetheart.

[@avaxthomas]

I love hearing how you pose and interact with them! This was such a fun and helpful video :)

[@leroytademy]

Glad you enjoyed it! thanks for tuning in to the channel

[@dudumozer]

how are these "candid" ?! They're super stiff and posed though!

[@leroytademy]

@dudumozer thank you for your feedback. Correct me if I'm wrong but I categorize any photos with my subject not looking at the camera in my frame to be considered a candid. I am not shooting full on photo journalistic poses as candids if that's what you are referring to as far as super stiff poses. These types of candid shots work for my market, but I am interested to know if something you are doing might work better. Thanks

Any money to be made in prom pictures these days? Seems like everyone is happy with their cell phone pictures for proms. I can't see many kids rolling up wanting to pay like you would years ago.

Averaging about $350 a couple for 30 min shoot this year.
