South Wales Wedding Photography Portfolio Day

 One-Day Workshop at a Real Wedding Venue in Bridgend.

 This booking secures your place on our South Wales Wedding Photography Portfolio Day, a one-day, hands-on workshop hosted at a real wedding venue. It’s designed for photographers who want natural, venue-based wedding images that feel authentic, polished and ready to use across their portfolio and marketing.

 Delivered by the Institute of Wedding Photographers, this portfolio day focuses on shooting in a genuine wedding environment, helping you create images that reflect real wedding conditions rather than styled studio setups.

What’s Included in Your Booking

This one-day portfolio workshop includes a full day of practical wedding photography training at a South Wales wedding venue. You’ll photograph real, professionally styled couples in and around the venue, working with natural light, interiors, exteriors and realistic timelines. Guidance is provided throughout the day to help you direct couples naturally, build confidence and create strong, usable wedding imagery.

Group sizes are kept small to ensure personal support, space to shoot and meaningful feedback while you work.

What You’ll Gain from the Day

By the end of the portfolio day, you’ll walk away with a set of venue-based wedding images that work perfectly for your website, social media and marketing. You’ll also gain increased confidence shooting at wedding venues, a better understanding of light and flow with natural light or learning off-camera flash, and practical skills you can apply immediately to real weddings.

This workshop is about creating images that book weddings — not just practising techniques.

 Who This Portfolio Day Is For

This workshop is suitable for wedding photographers at any stage, whether you’re building your first venue-based portfolio, refreshing existing work, or looking to improve confidence shooting in real wedding locations.
