I know doing these long full length videos is time consuming and an awful lot of extra work, but thank you soooo much for doing them for us! I don’t currently have the money to pay for wedding photography education, so I find myself watching KZread videos for as much help as I can get! I don’t mind letting it run and play through all the ads to help make sure you get paid in exchange for you doing this for us. Thank you soooo much for these full length videos. They’re unbelievably helpful on multiple levels for me and for others as well, I’m sure.

I’m excited for this even though I don’t do wedding photography. First photographer I watched an entire 2 hour video from!

I've always wondered about a Day in the Life of a Wedding Photographer. This video was 2.5 hours long and when it ended, I wanted more! It is very generous and kind of you to record this from start to finish for all to learn from. My favorite part of the video is you at 2:05:39 dancing and taking photos. That moment will be talked about later when everyone says, "The wedding was so fun, even the Photographer was dancing!" You are truly an amazing person and very talented. Thank you for a great video! I wish you continued success!

I'm so impressed with your skills. Not only were the photos great but you really know how to get people loose. Especially the photos with the groom and the groom's dad. Edit: and also dancing with the guests was awesome haha

I’ve shot a few weddings already but learned a few awesome tips from this video! Thanks so much John and congrats on getting to 100K subscribers!

I’m shooting my very first wedding on Friday - indoor, ballroom, no windows, at night. Aside from the technical difficulty of it all, I’m anxious about the process. I have never been so nervous in my life. Watching this has completely changed my mindset. I am calm, more confident, and ready for the day. Thank you SO much for making this video and inspiring beginning photographers like me to not be afraid.

First of all Thank you John for making this video. I have my first wedding soon and this video has been extremely helpful to plan the event. Super nervous but I am now 100x more confident. Once again! Thank you!

I’m half way through it and I cannot stop crying!! I’m at work, too!!! So far, one of my favorite part has been the groomsmen photos! Them sitting/standing on the porch was such a good shot. I’m also obsessed with flat lays, at the moment, so that’s a big fave 👌🏻

Really appreciate the effort you are putting in these videos, John. I've been doing wedding photography myself, mostly as a second shooter, but recently I did a couple of smaller weddings on my own and it went really good. I like to see other photographers perspective and your insights are really good. Keep up the good work!

Damn dude! Started watching this and I have to say you're stuff is on point! Appreciate the effort that went into this. Looking forward to finishing it soon!

Massive THANK YOU! for putting out this BTS video. It gave me that confidence boost I was looking for ✌ Next time I show up at a wedding I’ll be like: I got this!

I luv to listen on this while I am asleep. You just went str8 to my dreams.... ❤❤❤❤

Everything is just so beautiful. The bride was so cooperative and nice. You have a very gentle sweet way with your clients. And you clearly have their trust. That last one is everything.

Love when I get notifications for new posts from this channel :D You inspired me to make the jump from Sony to Fuji and to really put myself into finding my first wedding and I have officially booked my first gig!

The bride looks very beautiful, I love her eyes and fit. Very cute couple, and late congrats! Best of luck together and thanks for sharing :)

Appreciate you sharing this with us John. Great work!

This is a wonderful video. I've learned so much from it. I'm shooting a wedding the day after tomorrow so this and your other videos have been so helpful. Thanks so much! I do. have a question about lighting. Are you using off camera flash in some of the shots? I feel like I'm seeing the light go up a bit. You get your indoor shots nice and bright so was wondering if that was from the flash, from your wide apertures, post processing, or a combination.

These full wedding videos are absolute gold. Thanks for taking the time to make them!

Here's why your wedding day videos stand out above the rest. There are tons of "behind the scenes" or "day in the life of a wedding photographer" "full wedding day", and those videos are like 15 minutes long. You're cutting out a TON of stuff that most of us are looking for. I feel like people like me are watching these videos because we want to see the in between stuff, we know how a wedding ceremony goes, what are you doing in the down time or the transitions? you are the man. thank you, john.

I really enjoyed your video! It was really insightful seeing how another photographer captures a wedding day, down to different lenses and lighting choices than I would personally go with. It makes me think about how I can be more open to trying different shooting scenarios. Thanks so much for sharing!

Bro, this is hands down one of the top wedding photography videos I've ever seen. As a photog (nowadays commercial but used to shoot weddings) this is by far one of the most informative, not some ego building video. Also you're great example that it's not about the gear but the way you use it - and you've done awesome shots with pretty mediocre gear which tells even more about your skill. Not to mention overall great exposure and skintones which as we know might be tricky for some. It's really should be played to everyone that moan about gear or else. Again - great job!

Maaaaaan, this video alone completely changed my approach to photography. You've inspired me to work towards quitting my day job and do photography full time

Thanks for sharing your day with us! Big thanks also to the bride and groom and their families for allowing us to share in their special day. The first look between the bride and her father hit me in the feels. So sweet!

these are so so so helpful!!!! thank you thank you

Gorgeoussss photos! Love how you interacted with them and how you explained everything from camera settings to removing furniture and why you do certain things. Also great that you keep the videographer in mind and make sure they also get the shot. Thank you for taking us on this journey!

Hi John! I really really appreciate your time and effort in creating these videos among the many great videos that help many photographers begin their wedding photography journey. I am starting mine this week, and given that I have experience in street photography and some portrait shoots, you've granted me so much valuable information that helps me be more confident and not be afraid to make and learn from mistakes. Thank you!

Been watching some of your videos the past few days. Thank you so much for the content. These wedding coverage videos are incredibly helpful as i am shooting my 1st 2 weddings in the next few months. This brings clarity and new ideas so thank you so much. I love your work

Wow. This was really great. Thank you so much.

John, *thank you SO, SO MUCH* for this incredibly helpful documentary. I’m thinking about getting into wedding photography (have never shot professionally so far) and this is just an absolute goldmine. Other tutorials of yours are extremely good as well, but there is no replacement for seeing you in action. It really shows how your way of interacting with the bride, groom, family and friends is a huge part of your work. There’s a lot to take away from that as well. Again, thanks a million times! =)

Dude just did my first wedding a couple months ago and it was fun im still learning on how to better smooth the process of each moment but watching you Work helps that a lot Thanks for your content very helpful

John, I subscribed to your channel over two years ago when you had a couple hundred, maybe just about a thousand subscribers. I enjoyed some of your early tutorials a lot.I took a two year plus break from photography to focus on other things, and this meant I didn't see much of your channel since then. I recently decided I wanted to get back into wedding photography seriously, so I searched up some wedding photography videos, and here I see that you're over 100k on KZread! That's so amazing man. Well deserved. This video was great, and lines up perfectly with my experience at a few of the weddings I've shot. This was a great refresher for someone returning to the industry, or great for someone brand new to photography! Keep it up.

This was everything I needed to see. Thank you so much for the effort you put into this video. You are awesome!

This was an amazing video! Thank you so much for sharing. I have my first wedding this Saturday and your video was sooooo helpful
