30 Days of Wedding Photography with Susan Stripling

Susan Stripling is a master at both her photography and business strategy. I run my own successful wedding photography business and have been shooting weddings for 10 years. I keep coming back to this course for inspiration and advice.

Wow. What a super, comprehensive, entertaining, informative course. Well done. I've taking a lot of photography classes and this one is definitely top of the list. Susan Stripling was very well prepared (and great job by the CreativeLive Team too). Terrific course. Susan shared so much. Thank you! P.S. Love the CL boot camp courses.

I have learnt so much. Am watching it over and over.

she speaks so fast, not all are from your country,

I have taken a few courses at creative live this is the best by far!! This course is awesome Susan gives so much information this course will take you to the next level .. full to the brim with information and inspiration. 5 stars from me

This class is very worth the time for those wanting a look inside all of the steps and side steps related to running a photography production before, during and after a wedding day experience. This course provided valuable information that I will use as I begin my career as a wedding photographer, giving me a solid platform with the tools that will allow me to perform with confidence. I appreciate the instructors passion and conviction to our art of photography. The only constructive offering I would give, is time is money and there is an absolute video editing opportunity to stream line this course production. The course material could be edited minimizing repetition and non pertinent talk. I believe the value to this course would be much greater if it would have been respectfully produced as, "25 Days of Wedding Photography". However, I will conclude that it was still a beneficial class and appreciated in how Susan Stripling offered a passionate, honest informative look at wedding photography.

Susan's work speaks for itself. She holds nothing back, shooting straight from the hip on every topic. Can't imagine anyone not gaining important insights. Susan's demeanor is that of a seasoned veteran of the difficult responsibility of shooting weddings. She's serious, open, and critical where necessary, including of herself; all necessary when one takes on this most difficult, and uncorrectable, responsibility. A wedding happens once. Susan's helpful and firm approach reminds us that we must be well prepared, and she shares all her tools.

Firstly, I totally disagree with the negative reviews. I loved it. Her no- nonsense approach and sarcasm may rub some people the wrong way but I personally dig it and it found it entertaining. Super packed with information and after watching this class (the consultation walk-through and cost of doing business portion was particularly helpful) I went from making $25,000 a year the hard way to $75,000 pretty easily, so I'm happy as hell. Buy it, it's worth every penny.

I'll say this.. Some parts drag, BUT... I love the transparency and openness into her business. She's honest and straight forward. I love that..

I am actually a HS science teacher, but also have a small wedding photography business. I bought this class because I looked at her work. I won't buy a class on CL unless the instructor has beautiful work. Of course that doesn't mean a person is a good instructor. Well IMO, Susan is a very good instructor. She doesn't get off on too many tangents and sticks pretty much to the point. As a student, that is key. I also have Roberto Valenzuela's course, and his approach is different. Both of these photographers are great. But Susan's approach to business and shooting and work flow is a nice contrast. I appreciate her information about outsourcing work. This was very helpful to me. Kudos to Susan and her teaching abilities.

All the positive reviews say it all. When Susan took on the challenge of teaching this course it must of looked like attempting to climb Mount Everest...and she accomplished just that. Susan is a detailed, well-organized photographer and this clearly comes out in her teaching. Using repetition, clear instructions, a logical and well laid out presentation, she answers most any question you might have when it comes to wedding photography. I felt like I was having a private consultation when watching the course. She is real, honest, tactful, funny, and a gift to the photography community. Finally, her photography is professional and inspiring. Thank you Susan for the tremendous amount of work that you put into making this an outstanding Creative Live course for us all.

Susan is one of the best educators out there. She is real, honest and just tells you like it is. This class in particular walks you through every part of owning a wedding photography business. One of the greatest parts of this course is the fact that a client let her film Susan in action at a real wedding. This is so much more valuable than a faux wedding. Susan later debriefs these parts. I cannot say enough good things about this course.

This course has been the best investment I could have made in myself and in beginning my business. I'm only about halfway through this extensive course but have already been able to put Susan's teaching to work and I have no doubt that I will continue to refer back to this throughout my growth as a wedding photographer. If you're on the fence about investing, just do it!

This is a GREAT class! I've taken a few online and several in-class workshops over the last 7 years I've been in business, and this is by far the best. I'm specializing in wedding photography as of this year, and re branding my business from the ground up. Susan's approach to teaching and her personal anecdotes of her failures as well as triumphs are so inspirational. I can't tell you how many "ah ha" moments I've had taking this class. I've learned more from the Creative Live online classes and Susan Stripling especially, than I've learned in hands-on classrooms for a lot more money and time! Truly wonderful and I'm so glad Creative Live exists and artists like Susan Stripling have a forum to reach all of us and open our creative worlds so much more than we could do alone. THANK YOU!

Susan is one of my favorite wedding photographer and I would suggest this class to anyone who is willing to know the processing of wedding photography indepth.

As someone who's always looking to up my wedding photography game, I found Susan extremely helpful. I learned tons of new tips and tricks for posing, composing details, and making my way through a wedding day. This class is great for the beginner and intermediate alike. I always think you can learn something new from another photography professional and I thank Susan a ton for this course!

I love the honest way of teaching of Susan! She shares all her knowledge with the students. She is really clear with her message and I enjoy watching her videos.

LOVED this class! Susan is such a great teacher. I highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn weddin g photography! ❤️

I knew about Susan before but didn't put too much effort into looking at her class. Previously I had watched Jasmine Star's 30 Days bootcamp and I thought that covered everything I needed at the moment. I was wrong- Susan's eye is so creative and her teaching is amazing, I learned so much more from her class and I always go back and rewatch episodes when I feel I need to get pumped up again. Definitely a class every wedding photographer (and not only) should own and keep around for referencing when needed. Thanks Creative Live, and thank you Susan for being so transparent with your work! -Bella

I have a new favorite wedding photography mentor! I had no idea who Susan was until this course. She is amazing, smart, creative, helpful, and just plain genius. I am in the heart of my wedding season right now, during the week I watch her course, and by the weekend I'm pumped and ready to apply what I've learned. Shooting since 2007- but still learning, and proud to be learning from one of the best. Thanks Susan!

Susan is an absolute genius in photography and a master of light. I have watched this class over and over again. I am so inspired by her work and this course has given me so much confidence in my own photography. My own work has improved tremendously.

Love every minute of this course. If you know your camera, the staff that Susan is speaking about will really help you to understand how it works. I'm subscribed to different famous photographer's courses but she showed me should I see if other photographers show me their exif data. Before that I thought I know what to see. But after this course I really know! She is just amazing! The course worth every penny.

Its rlly Awsm.... i rlly love it... Thnnks for that....

My first class I bought on Creative Live and I love everything about this class. It is well worth the investment.

I had to buy this course. Susan Stripling is giving all the tools to make myself empowered enough to get my business up and running. Thank you for that.
