Sweet!

WITH JOEY IKEMOTO
Working inside the studio and shooting outdoors, Los Angeles based wedding and portrait photographer Joey Ikemoto lets our cameras in for a second ShootSmarter video. This time we see Joey setup, light then shoot a gorgeous set of engagement images on a classic background in the studio, on high key, then again outdoors. Next we watch and learn as Joey magically gets a family of young children to pose naturally in the park and along the walkway from the studio. Our video cameras catch every move so you can see how a successful pro gracefully gets his subjects to “light up” for the camera.
