Podcast: Download (Duration: 1:01:00 — 55.8MB)

This week on TWiP Weddings, it's our first date minus that part at the end of the date where you're not sure whether to end it with a handshake or a kiss. On this week's show, we'll introduce you to our regular panel of co-hosts, find out how they got into wedding photography, and learn how they want to use this show to help the wedding photography community raise the bar.

Meet the Hosts

Robert Evans
Robert Evans is one of the most highly acclaimed photographers in the world. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston, Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton, Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy, Shania Twain, Christina Aguilera and Yahoo CEO Marissa Meyer are just some of the couples that have sought out his services to photograph their private events. Don’t let the celebrity weddings intimidate you from experiencing Robert’s humility. Robert often shares his favorite clients are the every day couples where he connects and continues a friendship long after the event has passed. “Celebrity weddings is something that chose me; every client of mine is treated with the same passion and detail.”

Bryan Caporicci
Bryan is a loving husband and a proud father. He is a business owner, a photographer, a mentor, a teacher and an author. Bryan fully commits himself to continuing education, honing his artistic skills and keeping up-to-date in the industry. He is currently the chair for the Hamilton/Niagara Branch of the Professional Photographers of Canada (PPOC). Bryan teaches photography, too, and has inspired hundreds of photographers through courses and workshops. They say that the teacher often learns more than the students, and Bryan has been able to highly refine his skills as a photographer through the process of teaching and mentoring.

He is an accredited photographer with the PPOC in over 10 categories, including environmental business portraits. His images have received accolades in national and international image competitions and he is honoured to have been recognized with several local awards, including the RBC Small Business Award by the Welland/Pelham Chamber of Commerce, a 40 Under 40 Award by the Business Link and the CIPBA Award for the Arts.

Bryan was named one of the Top 25 Most Inspiring Wedding Photographers by Wedding Bells Magazine in 2012, and in the same year, he was awarded the Craftsman of Photographic Arts by the PPOC, making Bryan one of the youngest in the country to ever receive this designation.

Bruce Clarke

Bruce still considers himself a relative newcomer to the photography industry having only been in business for 8 years but in those 8 years he has managed to win several awards for his photography, worked with Grammy Award-winning artists, spent the day with the Stanley Cup, and photographed close to 200 weddings. As the Director of Content for TWiP, Bruce has worked behind the scenes each week helping to assemble the show notes for TWiP which guide and direct each week's show. With a background in business and education, Bruce likes to share his knowledge whenever he can and also dedicates some of his time to teaching about lighting, off-camera flash, and workflow.

Together with his wife Sarah, Bruce provides wedding and portrait photography services to clients in Edmonton, Alberta and beyond. Both Sarah and Bruce love to travel and have photographed weddings across Canada and as far away as India.
