Bow Tie Collaborative | Brilliant Ring Shots | Freebie
Hello Friends! I’m so glad you are here! I knew those sparkly rings would get your attention!
Now that we are friends, I can let you in on a little secret…I use to dread this time of the wedding day. I mean here you are, the guardians of the rings have relinquished their power and let you borrow them to take photographs. You have gathered all their pretties, invitation suite, bouquet, shoes, jewelry etc. and you have only a few minutes to create these unique vignettes of their gorgeous rings. You have to push all the other wedding day stress out of the way and instantly become creative! No biggie, Right?… Wrong! It was a huge biggie for me. So I decided to attack it like I did the other parts of the day and came up with a game plan that would always work and relieve some of that pressure! I mean seriously if we can relieve some stress why the heck wouldn’t we?
Just like the way you studied posing, you need to think it through and make a playlist in your head. You want it to become second nature for you. I want it to become a time when you can step back take a breath and focus on some beautiful things that will add so much value to your client’s experience.
Ring and detail shots are SO IMPORTANT! Not only to your clients but also to you! Ring and detail shots are great for social media posting, your portfolio and they add interest and excitement to your wedding blogs as well as to your client wedding gallery and album. It could also mean the difference between getting your work published or rejected! Yes, I know that sounds harsh, but I want you to know the truth.
