Education and community are super important to Maggie and I. We believe that it is the backbone not only to life but also the photo community. So after hearing that lots of talented local photographers in our local Shoot & Share-Connecticut group wanted to practice their craft during these dull winter months, Maggie and I decided to organize a shootout. We Immediately thought how much fun it would be to get everyone together to photograph a “bride and groom”, then we contacted a few friends that happen to also be wedding vendors, booked a suite at the Omni, and set a date.
A fellow photographer offered her gorgeous cousin and her boyfriend as models, and seriously you would think they just stepped out of a magazine. Erica and Greg were super troopers dealing with 15 photographers and chilly January temps.
So we thought we would give you some Behind The Scenes to get a idea of the fun we had.
