HOW GEORGE POMPEO CREATES STUNNING RING SHOTS WITH OFF-CAMERA FLASH
You don't need the couple. You don't need a fancy setting. You just need five minutes and the right technique. George Pompeo shows you how to create jaw-dropping ring photographs that elevate every wedding album.
FIVE MINUTES, TWO RINGS, ONE STUNNING PHOTOGRAPH: GEORGE POMPEO'S RING SHOT MASTERCLASS
Wedding days move fast. There's never enough time. But some of the most impactful images in an album don't need the bride, the groom, the venue, or even good natural light. They just need someone who knows exactly what to do.
In this focused and practical tutorial, New York photographer George Pompeo, who came to wedding photography having spent nearly 20 years in the wedding industry, walks you through his complete ring shot process from start to finish. Filmed with multiple flash set-ups and real examples, George covers not just his go-to technique that he can execute in under five minutes, but also a more advanced version for when time is on your side.
The result? Beautifully lit, cinematic ring shots that make clients stop scrolling and stare. Images that look like they belong in a magazine, and that take minutes to create. Once you know George's process, you'll look forward to this part of every wedding.
This is the tutorial that will make ring shots one of your favourite moments of the day. 💍
