About the event

Discover the art of creating timeless and elegant wedding portraits in a beautiful, purpose-designed location.

Join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Zeeshan Zafar for a hands-on workshop where you'll photograph a bride and groom in a series of carefully styled wedding-inspired scenes. Whether you're an aspiring wedding photographer or simply looking to refine your portrait skills, this workshop will provide practical techniques that you can apply to real wedding days.

Throughout the session, you'll learn how to make the most of natural light to create soft, romantic imagery, while also exploring how continuous lighting can be used to add mood, depth and creativity to your portraits. Zeeshan will demonstrate how to quickly adapt to different lighting conditions, compose elegant images, and confidently direct couples to achieve natural, authentic moments.

Working in small groups, every participant will have ample opportunities to photograph the couple while receiving guidance on lighting, posing, composition and camera settings.

During this workshop you'll learn:

  • How to create timeless wedding portraits using natural light.
  • Techniques for photographing couples in a relaxed and authentic way.

  • Using continuous lighting to create dramatic and artistic wedding portraits.
