Weddings

Parker and Barrow

I had some fun this past week, attending a seminar and photoshoot put on by John Michael Cooper of AltF infamy. John, whose work inspired the whole “Trash the Dress” craze, was in classic form – teaching, shooting, and inspiring.

The day started off mildly, with John sitting down with us to discuss some of his background and thoughts behind his more famous images, then led us through some exercises in photographing engagement sessions. In the afternoon a couple recently married came in and we spent a little time shooting “pretty pictures”:

before moving into the more interesting part of the day, JMC’s re-creation of Bonnie and Clyde’s takedown, with a modern-day bride and groom twist:

I do not understand mister officer

Just a note that no bride was harmed in the photographing of this event. 🙂 To the contrary, people line up for the chance to experience one of JMC’s one-of-a-kind events. After taking their mug-shots they were free to go, with images worthy of 30″x40″ canvases. 😀

Great day 🙂 If you are interested in doing some out of the ordinary photography, contact me soon to discuss how we can put some fun images together for you. 🙂
