Storytelling
with Details
BY ANNI & MANDA
Details are a significant part of any story
There is so much intention and effort behind the design of a wedding. From colors to textures, installations, florals, and light – capturing it all in a cohesive and intentional way is so important. I used to feel like photographing details was just another part of the wedding day that I needed to check off my list. To be honest, I focused more on the people, emotions, and interactions. Working closely with Manda over the years has shown me that details are a significant part of any story.
I used to try to take “pretty photos” of the details. I thought about things like composition, keeping backgrounds empty of clutter, using different lenses to create certain effects. But what I've learned over the past few years working with Manda has dramatically changed my focus in this area.
Reaching out and allowing wedding designers to influence the way you photograph their details will take your galleries from “pretty good” to the world of luxury weddings.

Do you ever feel like…
You wonder how some photographers produce such amazing variety in their work while keeping the quality of their images so consistently high
You feel resistance or competitiveness with wedding designers rather than finding ways to enhance the quality of each other's work and build professional relationships
You wish your images contained more depth or meaning but you’re not sure what you could be missing
Oftentimes storytelling is only associated with people – the bride and groom, the family, the guests. Photographing the details of a wedding is viewed as being just another part of the day. You try to do them well, beautifully even. But there is so much more to photographing details than simply making sure you “got them all.”
I wish I knew the things I know now about the power of collaboration back when I had that mindset. Learning to consider details as a central part of my process, and learning from the artists who make those details so special in the first place, has transformed the way I shoot weddings. I believe that working collaboratively turns good artists into great ones.
In this course, I interview Manda and discover some of the struggles of working with photographers, get a deeper perspective on the concept behind the details, and share information on how we work together that we've never shared before.
Once you have finished this course, I guarantee you will discover ways to create consistent, high-end galleries that will take your business to new heights.
You will discover the untapped potential of collaborative storytelling in an industry that is often isolating and competitive.
