Last week was a big week for me. I had the opportunity through NAIT to job shadow a photographer for an entire week. I choose Kinga Dydra from Images by Frost, one of the best local wedding photographers in Edmonton.
Through Kinga I got a ton of information on running a photography business and shooting weddings and engagements. It has definitely inspired me to make my photography more marketable and to think about how to make money and market myself! I hope to do some more assisting for her, including next summer during wedding season.
I recently finished one of the books she recommended to me, called Rework
. It’s an incredibly brief read that is very optimistic and inspiring for small business owners. I highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking about running a tiny business, like a one or two-man photography studio.
The pictures above are of the lovely Kinga and her husband Rafal. She gave me some great tips for posing couples and I created these images with her help and guidance.
