20 Years and Over 800 Weddings Photographed With Joseph Ellis

Wedding Photography. So many new photographers decide to shoot weddings because they think it is a sound money making genre. So many wedding photography businesses fail quickly because said photographers had no idea how much work is actually involved in shooting a wedding and running a wedding business. It takes a special person to not only be good at wedding photography, but also to be able to make it a full-time business that supports a family of 4. This was not the case for my guest Mr. Joseph Ellis. Along with his wife Stephanie, Joseph has shot over 800 weddings in the last 20 years after transitioning to weddings from his early career as a photojournalist. Together, the couple owns and operates Big Wall Family Photography studio in Dallas, Texas.  Joseph shared some great advice for new wedding photographers and lots of details about how he works with wedding couples and the gear he uses. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Links Website URLs: http://www.josephmark.com  http://www.bigwallstudio.com http://www.familyphotolife.com Instagram URL: https://www.instagram.com/josephmarkphoto/ Facebook URL: https://www.facebook.com/josephmarkphoto YouTube URL: http://www.youtube.com/josephellisphotographer - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - TOGCHAT Resources Show Website: https://togchat.com Episode Web Page: https://www.joeedelman.com/joseph-ellis My Website & Portfolio: https://www.JoeEdelman.com Don't forget to check out THE LAST FRAME LIVE Wednesday evenings at 6:00PM ET US on YouTube!
