    First video of yours I've watched. Questions: Your first wedding was? How did you get involved in it? Was that something you always wanted to do? What equipment did you use?
    Thank you!

      Hey! My first wedding was 21 years ago or so and I worked for my high school photography teacher who did weddings on the weekends. I had come back to his classroom to use the high school's matte-cutter because my collage one sucked and he ended up hiring me after seeing the work I was bringing in. :-) I learned on a 35mm Canon A-1 (that I still shoot with today for fun) and have loved photography since I was 15 :-)

Just, "Thank You" .... you keep making these videos and I'll keep watching and learning!!!!!

    That's awesome. If it was possible to go back in time, I'd hire you to do my wedding. How did your energy level survive that extended family portrait segment of the wedding? Whew! In general, what's the worst moment/biggest mistake you ever experienced or made at a wedding? Conversely, the best moment and biggest success you ever had? Maybe success is not the right way to put it. Maybe serendipity is a better choice. You know, where everything just fell into place better than expected. Settings for the family portraits were? ISO? Hey, that was great! Totally fantastic!

With all that white reflective surfaces around, it would be great to know how you set your exposure and also white balance. I think that's all! :)

    Awesome content! It helps so much to see how your handle the big day. I'm a photographer attempting to make it a full time. Right now I have the r5 with the rf 70-200 2.8, the ef 50 1.2 and the ef 100 macro. I've been thinking about selling my ef gear and getting the rf 28-70 2.0 or rf 50 1.2. But having such a hard time making up my mind. I have a feeling the 28-70 would be wiser due to not having the ability to go wider then 50mm right now. What do you think would be the best course for someone a year into the bisnuess, I normally shoot events, portraits and animal portraits. Thanks so much for being such a resource for us struggling and new photographer :)

      Sometimes you just got to get the shot within a certain time frame. If you lose yourself in being creative you’ll lose the light or lose the clients interest. They have a timeline they have to stick to. You are constantly at the mercy of other things like if the makeup artist sucks all your time doing makeup so you have to wait forever just to have your time with the bride.
