It’s been almost a year.

A year since we attended our 1st photographer workshop: The Scott Robert World Tour.  It was with the amazing speaker and photographer, Scott Robert Lim.

Teasers of the images we took at that workshop:

We first attended his workshop to see if we could really do this, become professional photographers.  At the end of the workshop, we learned that we could.  We went from being part-time photographers only charging $400 for a wedding to, just one year later, being full-time photographers charging $4,000/wedding.

We thank God of course for the opportunity and blessing we’ve had in this journey.  But we also have much to thank to Scott Robert for the incredible inspiration and techniques he shared at the workshop.  It was worth it.

We didn’t want to miss it when he came to speak at the OC Smug Mug.

the evening

The place was packed with almost 200 people.

Rightfully so, Scott packed the session with lots of photography techniques:

• off-camera flash
• 7 reasons to use flash
• dealing with the worst lighting conditions
• and how to go from part to full-time photography
