    I love Joe Buissink I watched this class over and over again trying to get ready to shoot a wedding for a friend, and I absolutely love all the tips, explanations, the reason why he does what he does. Unlike most pros, He doesn't talk down to you, his direction, his tone is all about making you comfortable and actually teaching, I've found with some others that, they can be rude or make you feel uncomfortable, Joe isn't one of them, I would actually love to work with him some day. I would definitely recommend this to everyone who wants to learn how to shoot weddings.

    Simply Wow. Great class.

    I started my wedding photography business in 2008 when I was 19, and saw Joe speak for the first time at a conference. He had a huge impact on my work and how I approached my business, and I owe a tremendous amount of gratitude to him. Even though I'm now full time and experienced in the industry, I still glean so much from his philosophy and attitude towards the craft and his clients. This class is so full of gems, and is equal parts informational and inspiring. I'm so thankful that Joe is open and heartfelt with what he does, and that he has chosen to extend his art and hand in the industry to education and helping others. If you are experienced and looking only for advanced technical shooting advice, this *may* not be the class for you. But if you are relatively new to weddings, or if you are experienced and looking for inspiration and a fresh way to look at your business and art, this course is invaluable.

    I always feel so grateful to have Creative Live in my life, which, in turn, has given me the opportunity to have this wonderful source of information, Joe is one of them, he made find myself as a person when it comes to dealing with yourself and with the client, he vibrates in every thing that he does, every step from beginning to the end, that is the essence, put your passion in everything you do, we love what we do, It was so touching when he said that he tears up with moments of their clients in their weddings, I do too and I thought it was wrong, show our sensitivity it only proves us that we are human, and we can break barriers created by wrong schemas letting us be who we really are and then we can be free to feel and create, and do what we like to do, thanks JOE, thank you also for all the technical information, is PRICELESS. Your course it was my Birthday present that I give to myself, and I have not regret, thank you.

    Hi everyone, Joe's class was awesome and I have to say out off all classes and lectures I have attended this class was by far the one I enjoyed the most and really opened not only my eyes but my heart as well. Joe is inspirational, extremely informative and has an incredible eye. You just gravitate to Joe and want to be around him. He is genuine and speaks from the heart. Buy the video and you'll see what I mean! Good luck and happy shooting….

    I thought the same thing... I would give a kidney to have been there (well, not literally... but you get it!) and most of the students seemed advanced amateurs. Pitiful... but I do hope and pray they did learn a lot and improved!!!

  • Adrian F. Aug 13, 2012

    Joe, you were awesome. Of all the courses I have seen on CreativeLive yours was the most informative , fun and useful. You did a masterful presentation!

    I feel like this course with Joe Buissink is a basket of gems. Several times already I have been tearing up, because Joe is validating each one of us, as artists and professionals. Being ourselves, selling the experience, and knowing what we offer artistically IS enough. Of course we have to do the work, know our craft, and have good business sense...But what has been the most valueable to me is the sense of joy that happens when Joe says something that I have felt myself, him sharing so much with us makes reaching our goals real, because he has been there.... when he said he pitched in Dunkin Donuts and still made it an experience..I cried, I have done that myself. (And booked the client:) I remember wishing I had a studio at the time, but now I think..one day I will! To hear him say he tears up at clients weddings...I do that, and felt so silly, but now I feel proud! This is a morale boost...a shot of joy in my arm. Thank you Joe Buissink for offering up your help and advise and for being so willing to share yourself with us. You are inspiring so many...and Thank you CreativeLIVE!! To anyone who is not sure if they want to purchase this workshop...DO IT!!! It is a gem.

    I could hug Joe right now. I had to miss yesterdays session (but will watch it today) because I was at a wedding, and I have never left a terribly lit church feeling so good ... Joe is incredibly talented, inspiring and has left me feeling so excited to use his techniques. Thank you Creative Live and THANK you Joe for allowing all of us to soak in some of your knowledge.

  • B. Aug 12, 2012

    Joe is the real deal, stripped back to the core of what wedding photography is really all about. Photographers of all levels can learn something from this course and Joe has been so generous to share what he has worked for many to develop which I am so grateful for. If you feel that you have lost your spirit, Joe can help you rekindle. Yay!

  • M. Aug 11, 2012

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVED this course! Not since Jasmine Star's first wedding photography session has a pro come along that really made me say WOW, I'm impressed! Joe is completely down to earth during his course and touches on a lot of ideas and perspectives that can be relayed easily into your professional business. I knew a half hour in, this workshop was a must have in our educational collection. You won't regret this guys!

  • Denise . Aug 11, 2012

    Joe, what an AMAZING course! I have no desire to shoot weddings, but watched some online of the 2nd day. Your talk about how to light in any situation, especially dark areas taught me so much! This information is very helpful in any type of photography and I bought this course simply because of that information! I was able to watch some of the re-watch on the 3rd day and really loved your work model. Life is truly about capturing moments, not about perfection! Thank you again!!

  • Jenny L. Aug 11, 2012

    WONDERFUL!!! Just sharing and discussing copyrights and his contract was GOLDEN. Lots of interesting info. VERY generous of him to share so much. Good stuff! Thanks so much.

  • K. Aug 11, 2012

    Another excellent course provided by Creative Live. Joe offers some very unique perspectives on both shooting and business. Really enjoyed his interaction with the on-set students. Joe's heart, however, steals the show. He is passionate about both his work and the client experience. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

  • O. Aug 11, 2012

    BEYOND worth the money! Joe is extremely knowledgeable, and the tips and pointers he shares - more than how to shoot, which is dime-a-dozen advice these days, but about running and operating a photography BUSINESS - is clutch and vital! He was phenomenally helpful and I greatly appreciate this course! Thanks for the lessons, Joe! And thanks for throwing this awesomeness together, CL!

  • Meredith! M. Aug 10, 2012
