    Wedding Photography.  So many new photographers decide to shoot weddings because they think it is a sound money making genre.  So many wedding photography businesses fail quickly because said photographers had no idea how much work is actually involved in shooting a wedding and running a wedding business.  It takes a special person to not only be good at wedding photography, but also to be able to make it a full-time business that supports a family of 4.This was not the case for my guest Mr. Joseph Ellis.  Along with his wife Stephanie, Joseph has shot over 800 weddings in the last 20 years after transitioning to weddings from his early career as a photojournalist.  Together, the couple owns and operates Big Wall Family Photography studio in Dallas, Texas. Joseph shared some great advice for new wedding photographers and lots of details about how he works with wedding couples and the gear he uses.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LinksWebsite URLs:http://www.josephmark.com http://www.bigwallstudio.comhttp://www.familyphotolife.comInstagram URL:https://www.instagram.com/josephmarkphoto/Facebook URL:https://www.facebook.com/josephmarkphotoYouTube URL:http://www.youtube.com/josephellisphotographer- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TOGCHAT ResourcesShow Website: https://togchat.comEpisode Web Page:  https://www.joeedelman.com/joseph-ellisMy Website & Portfolio:  https://www.JoeEdelman.comDon't forget to check out THE LAST FRAME LIVEWednesday evenings at 6:00PM ET US on YouTube!Visit:  http://lastframe.live for past episodes.Calendar of upcoming Live-Online Presentations & Speaking Events:https://www.joeedelman.com/edu/I would love to be your PHOTOGRAPHY MENTOR! https://www.joeedelman.com/mentoring-for-photographers/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -FTC Disclosure: No sponsors have paid for inclusion in this video.  I am an Olympus Visionary photographer, a Delkin Image Maker, a TetherTools Pro and a StellaPro Champion of Light.  These companies do provide me with various pieces of gear that I frequently discuss or mention, however all words and opinions are my own, and I was not asked to produce this podcast.Support the show (https://paypal.me/joeedelman)

    I had a great conversation this week with Mr. Marc Silber.  Marc is a life-long photographer, best-selling author three times over, filmmaker and host of the Advancing Your Photography YouTube series.Marc started out learning darkroom skills and the basics of photography at the legendary Peninsula School in Menlo Park, CA, in the '60s.  If you are not familiar with the Peninsula School they are renowned for their no grade approach to education and support of student collaboration, positive risk taking, and creativity.  Marc moved on to hone his skills to professional standards at the famed San Francisco Art Institute and has since moved into teaching photography in workshops all over the country.One of the things I admire most about Marc is his dedication to education. Not just sharing his knowledge and experience, but his own continuing education and you will see in his books, his videos and even in our conversation, he has a brilliant quote from an inspirational photographer for almost any situation.But his quotes are not just focused on iconic names like Adams and Leibovitz.  He also makes it a point to learn from new photographers. When I booked Marc to be on the podcast, he shared a list of things that he has recently learned from talking to budding photographers and I thought that would make for a great conversation and provide some excellent teaching opportunities.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LinksWebsite URL:https://www.silberstudios.com/https://marcsilber.smugmug.com/Instagram URL:https://www.instagram.com/marcsilber Facebook URL:https://www.facebook.com/marcosilberYouTube URL:https://www.youtube.com/marcsilberTo purchase Marc's book Advancing Your Photography: Secrets to Making Photographs that You and Others Will LoveVisit: https://www.advancingyourphotography.com/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TOGCHAT ResourcesShow Website: https://togchat.comEpisode Web Page:  https://www.joeedelman.com/marc-silberMy Website & Portfolio:  https://www.JoeEdelman.comDon't forget to check out THE LAST FRAME LIVEWednesday evenings at 6:00PM ET US on YouTube!Visit:  http://lastframe.live for past episodes.Calendar of upcoming Live-Online Presentations & Speaking Events:https://www.joeedelman.com/edu/I would love to be your PHOTOGRAPHY MENTOR! https://www.joeedelman.com/mentoring-for-photographers/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -FTC Disclosure: No sponsors have paid for inclusion in this video.  I am an Olympus Visionary photographer, a Delkin Image Maker, a TetherTools Pro and a StellaPro Champion of Light.  These companies do provide me with various pieces of gear that I frequently discuss or mention, however all words and opinions are my own, and I was not asked to produce this podcast.Support the show (https://paypal.me/joeedelman)

    Today my goal is to introduce you to a practical approach to composition that can have an immediate impact on your photography and all without having to follow any creativity killing rules.And even better yet — I am going to teach you this concept without showing you a single picture. You are listening to a podcast after all. But I accept the challenge and I would even propose that you can learn this concept better by listening and not watching. As long as you promise to give it a try — with your camera soon. The longer you wait — the less you remember.I want to be upfront with you about my philosophy towards rules.I believe that rules are CREATIVITY KILLERS. Actually science confirms and proves that rules are creativity killers. The simple explanation is that once you are aware of the rules or worse yet, understand the rules — you are essentially in the box. Everything that you do in an attempt to be creative and think outside the box to be original will be hampered by your knowledge of the rules. I mean it is easier to think outside the box — when you don’t know where the box is.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Photo Quote:“If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough.” — Robert Capa https://www.magnumphotos.com/photographer/robert-capa/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Talent under 30:Please check out Philadelphia, Pennsylvania based photographer Hannah Beier.https://www.hannahbeier.com/https://www.instagram.com/hannah.beier/Be sure to check out Hannah's interview with Katie Couric: https://time.com/5839563/generation-pandemic-time-cover-photographer/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Episode Links:V-Flats from V-Flat World https://vflatworld.comSet.a.light 3D: https://www.elixxier.com/en/products/setalight3d.php.

About Irene in her own words: My name is Irene Rudnyk, and I am a self-taught fashion and lifestyle photographer located in Calgary. I like to describe my style as romantic and artistic, I love to play around with light, softness, colors and textures. I definitely enjoy photographing people the most. I strive to make my models stand out in an image, making sure the background never overpowers the focal point of the picture. Since I was a little girl I was drawn to photography and videography. My sister and I used to pretend that she was a model, and I was a photographer, we would dress up, do our make-up, and plan the poses and locations for photo shoots. When I was quite young and could afford it, I bought my first professional camera and instantly knew that photography was my passion. I started my journey as a fashion photographer, working mostly with agencies in Calgary, like Numa Models, Mode models and Imodels. I have experimented with different styles and techniques and now as a developed photographer, I provide professional services like wedding photography, engagement, family, maternity, boudoir, model portfolio, and event coverage. I’ve also spent several years modeling, which has given me the valuable knowledge to both sides of the camera. If desired, I will be glad to help with posing ideas and angles to give you the best looking, unique images. I am very friendly and sociable, I try to make my clients feel comfortable and have a lot of fun at the shoot. I am truly fortunate to do what I do. I get to be part of a person’s special day or celebration, get to know their family and most of all, capture those precious moments for them! That’s what it’s all about to me, capturing the emotion, character, and surreal beauty in people that will last a lifetime. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Links for tonights show: CullAI Software https://apps.apple.com/in/app/cullai/...

    My Favorite Photography Gear and Gadget Finds of 2020

    As 2020 draws to a close, I want to share with you some of my favorite GEAR and GADGET finds from the past year. Photographers often hear the quote, “it's not the camera that makes the picture, it is the photographer”.  They usually hear it from a person who has tens of thousands of dollars worth of camera gear. I like to take a slightly more practical approach and that is simply that all the gear in the world won't make you a great photographer, but the right gear can make your task much easier and help elevate the quality of your work.  How's that for politically correct?  But it's true.  At the end of the day if you don't build a solid foundation of photography knowledge — you know that physics stuff, and if you don't make a real effort to be creative — well then all that gear will not really matter. Let's keep it real — we all like our toys and for me, when I find a toy that makes my job easier or helps me simplify something — that is a big win in my books. I have links to all of these in the show notes.  Full disclosure — a few of the links are affiliate links, so I will make a few pennies if you use the links, but I assure you — I am not being paid to show any of this gear and these are pieces that I actively use in my daily work. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Links for Episode #228 of the TOGCHAT Photography Podcast  Olympus Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/getolympus I hope to see you at 1:00PM ET on 12/3 for my exclusive livestream.
