The Art of Second Shooting : Photography Course

TODAY is the day! We woke up at 4:30 this morning for last minute prep (okay, and from sheer nerves!), but we are excited to see JD host his first ever teaching experience. He's been a second shooter for seven years and today he'll be sharing more about what it's like from an insider's perspective. The Art of Second Shooting is a FREE two day course and together we'll be teaching the ins and outs of First and Second Shooting on a wedding day.

If you'd like to join us, here's a breakdown of each day starting at 9 a.m. PST…
