Shooting with Justin Hackworth

Justin Hackworth (from now on will be Justin) is teaching a wedding photography class that I'm in this semester.

I took it mainly because I felt I could use the extra boost before I graduate and it wouldn't hurt to get some pointers from a photographer that has been in the biz for a while. What I didn't anticipate was the fact that it's actually more of a business class than a "how to shoot a bride" class, for which I am grateful for. I'm all about shooting pretty ladies but that is really just one aspect of a much larger picture-pun intended- of the photography business as a whole.

Justin has a swanky studio in downtown Provo just above Gloria's Little Italy and the place smells a bit like food...which is a good thing in my opinion. Unfortunately my brain got used to it.  Our class met up at his studio on thursday to shoot a mock "getting ready" session and it was quite fun. Though there are only so many shots of a girl getting ready before we turned our camera's on our selves.

This girl looks so much like my sister in law Kirsten. It made me miss her! *love you girl!
