Calgary Wedding Workshop with Christina Craft - Funky Town Photography

I attended a wedding workshop yesterday with Christina Craft-Funky Town Photography. It was so nice to have a hands-on learning experience since I do most of my studying online. It was great to meet with new photographers and interact in a photo shoot with them. It’s always interesting to see how everyone perceives the same environment so differently. Christina was such an inspiration. As a teacher at the Western Academy of Photography, I felt she would have plenty to offer me in her workshop and I was thrilled to be a part of it. I think one of the most valuable aspects I took home that day was it’s ok to go to the extreme. Find who you are as a photographer and embrace who you are as an artist. I also was reminded that it’s ok to make mistakes. Mistakes help you learn and grow (and sometimes they end up being your best shots)! Attending this workshop was very refreshing. Christina reminded me to not be afraid to push to the extremes. I look forward to using the tid-bits I learned in my future sessions. Look out world!
Here are a few shots from the photo session from the day:











 Kind of went a little artsy with this one with a water-color feel.
