Thanks Nehemiah!!! Goodluck!

The intro bump with the veil tossing and the vague arms peeking in kills me 😂

As a female photographer who shot hundreds of groom peep over the years, I’ve put on hundreds of ties and trust me they never know how to put on a boutonnière LOL. All good skills to have!

Loved it! I'd love to see more behind the scenes of getting the "guys" section of the day photographed. That's one of my weak points!

This needs to be a much more expanded video Michael! You and I both know that... LOL! These are all things I learned along the way as a second shooter, but would have given the world to learn in a video, rather than over five years of shooting as a 2nd. I feel like preparing my 2nds for what I expect and need is a 5hr process all in itself... There's a lot to it, but a good 2nd is worth their time and talent in gold!

I told Michael he needs to make a course!

Dude, you need your own channel. Good screen presence and good voice. Seriously. Start a channel. As a long time second and primary shooter you nailed it. The most significant trait of any second shooter is the ability to add value to the primary shooter and final product.

For Indian wedding shooters, it's so stressful to shoot getting ready because there are back to back rituals and it is hard to get proper time for this stuff.

Thanks! So helpful

If a groom requests candids only what shots would you get without asking for some of these specific shots?

Where is the link for the grooms guide?

How do you take grooms getting ready as a girl photographer, and making them feel comfortable? Thank you so much!

Thanks for watching! It is trickier for sure. That is why I love having michael for groomsmen. But there are a lot of female photographers who do it. I wish I could be more help

I know you too are married and might good home at the end of a wedding in the same car. But if you leave in different cars it's a good idea if you shoot on dual cards to give each one card from each camera. This is so each of you have a back up if the other photographers photos. I heard about one photographer that went into a restaurant and good car for broken into he lost all the photos too that wedding.
