Shoot To Learn
This is the most popular option and our preferred way of acquiring long-term second shooters who will become world-class wedding photographers under us – and have a fun time doing it!
Whilst many facebook wedding photographers picked up a camera and watched youtube and call themselves a professional now because they book a handful of clients each year – the long term successful wedding photographers began their career this way by shadowing and learning from the best. As full-time professionals there is so much we can teach you and you need to learn before starting your journey as a professional wedding photographer:
Advantages
- Photography Basics and Advanced Techniques
- Advanced Lighting (never be scared of a dark reception hall or a last minute sparklers outside request again!)
- Advanced Posing and Lighting – Making those WOW pictures fast and stress-free
- Booking and Managing Weddings
- Wedding Planning and Management
- Crisis Management
- SEO and Client Acquisition
- Product Design and Best Website / Client Practices
- Classic Things To Avoid (that youtube and facebook won’t tell you about!)
- REAL wedding experience with REAL clients that you will actually learn from (many new wedding photographers quickly learn that shooting models on a training course is NOT the same!)
- Chance for Paid Work Once You Have Mastered The Basics

Working With A World-Class Photography Studio
Our new second shooters are often gob-smacked at how much more relaxed and fun Mykey Day Photography weddings are – and this is all down to working closely with our clients and having a world-class team that knows what they are doing. We even have wedding venues remark how much less fuss and confusion our weddings are, never realising it’s because of the proper planning and professional approach our studio takes to every wedding event.
Whether you are newer wedding photographer looking to gain valuable experience and skills, or a well-trained wedding photography professional looking to make extra cash outside of your normal bookings, we have a place for you here…

OUR CORE VALUES
CREATIVITY
We believe creativity, innovation, and client happiness, go hand-in-hand. We strive to always improve, sharpening our talents so as to deliver increasingly spectacular results. We draw on all fields of creativity and channel them into our consistent drive to create imagery and products no one else has dared before…
CLIENT FOCUS
We only consider our job done when our clients are happy. We endeavour to treat our clients as family, and we consider client interaction and satisfaction to be at the core of what we do, giving 100% and no less. We pre-empt our clients’ needs, using our industry and professional experience to meet their needs before they even know they have them. We never over-promise, but we always over-deliver.
EQUALITY
We don’t see colour, race, sex, wealth, or religion – we only see family. We commit 100% to every client as if they were members of our own family, whatever their background and whatever their wedding plans.
INNOVATION IN THE INDUSTRY
We don’t just do what everyone else does, we take a hard look at what we do and always ask “How can it be more perfect?” We are not constrained by what our peers and the industry do, we are constrained only by the consistent drive to make our imagery, products, and client experience the most amazing it can be.
LGBT FRIENDLY 
As mentioned above we don’t see colour, race, sex, wealth, or religion – we only see family. We have covered many same-sex and LGBTQ+ weddings. and events, and are excited to work with you.
