Overview

Live with Jessie & Dallin — Astrophotography, Shutter Drag & Why Utah Might Be the Most Photogenic Place on Earth

We are thrilled to welcome one of our absolute favourite Flash Masters duos - the incredibly talented Jessie and Dallin, husband and wife wedding photographers based in Utah, USA. Flash Masters Environmental Photographers of the Year, Top 50 Fearless photographers, Top 25 ISPWP, Magmod Ambassadors and if that wasn't enough, they also run their own adventure wedding magazine called Adventure Wed. We have absolutely no idea how they fit it all in.

In this stream they walk us through a stunning collection of images including breathtaking astrophotography portraits, gorgeous shutter drag experiments with Christmas lights, and creative senior portraits that show just how much fun photography can be when you shoot for the love of it. Almost everything they show has behind-the-scenes footage to go with it, and watching how they work together as a team is genuinely inspiring.

This stream is a beautiful reminder that the best photographers never stop experimenting and that sometimes the best images come from shooting for fun with no pressure at all.

We are so grateful to Jessie and Dallin for sharing so generously. A genuine treat from start to finish. 🎉

 

The top 5 things you will learn by watching this stream:

  • How to shoot and light astrophotography portraits. Jessie and Dallin walk through their approach to shooting the Milky Way with couples  including how they find the right conditions, set their exposure, and use flash to paint the couple into the scene.
  • How to create stunning shutter drag portraits with Christmas lights. They share their full process for creating those beautiful light-trail images including the shutter speed, how Jessie moves the camera, and how Dallin hides in the lights to minimise editing.
  • How to shoot creatively in small spaces with minimal gear. Several of their most striking images were shot in an ordinary room with simple setups - proof that creativity and intentional lighting matter far more than the size of your studio.
  • How to use the blue hour to transform your night-time portraits. Jessie and Dallin share their approach to shooting just after sunset capturing that beautiful deep blue in the sky rather than waiting for full darkness and how it completely transforms the mood of an image.
  • Why shooting for fun makes you a better wedding photographer. Jessie and Dallin are firm believers in picking up your camera outside of paid work and this stream is a brilliant reminder of how much that practice pays off when it counts.
