Intro to Photography, round 2!


We had such a great time this past weekend in our second Intro to Photography class! We spent the first weekend learning the basics of the camera so that everyone can work their camera's manual settings. What does it mean to be able to work your camera manually? It means you can see an image in your head, and know just what to do to make it turn out! We also discussed all different forms of lighting, composition, and posing with opportunities throughout the day to practice these things. The second Saturday was a full day shoot, where we put all of these practices into place! I've gone through and edited some of my favorites from each student in the class, and I think their work is excellent! It was a very intense two weekends, but it totally paid off in the end! The great thing is, the students can take the skills that they have learned and use them in whatever avenue they are interested in, not only weddings. First, here is a shot of us hard at work:


But it wasn't just hard work, it was a lot of fun too!


Now... on to the the photographs!














Last, but most certainly not least, I want to thank our friends Winston & Freya for being excellent models for the day! Also, a huge thank you to Cedarwood for allowing us to come out and explore their property, which is beautiful all times of the year!

About me

  • I'm Dove Wedding Photography
  • From South East, United States
  • Whitney Carlson, Peter Carlson and their team take an artistic approach to traditional wedding photography. Our goal is to blend fine-art photography, photojournalistic images, and traditional portraits. To capture the mood you are looking for in your photographs, our team of photographers will strive to get to know you personally before and during the wedding. Working throughout the event with minimal direction and posing allows the bride and groom to relax as we document the sites and emotions of the day. As a team, we have the advantage of capturing all aspects of your wedding day, from the preparation to the farewell, in a way you will remember. View our website here.
