As a photographer, we must understand leading lines and composition and how they work together to create compelling art work and imagery.

In this tutorial video, I show you how to see leading lines and how to use composition to your advantage. This is a recent photography workshop I conducted in London in a very busy area as you will see in the video.

You can watch stepbystep as I set up the shot and direct our bride on how to pose for best results. These techniques will help you create better portraits.
