Hey guys! My name is Andrew! I'm a full-time wedding photographer and videographer in southern CA. I shoot over 50 weddings per year. I created this channel to teach you how to become the most successful wedding photographer you can be. While I might be a photographer at face value, I really love the business / entrepreneur side of this career and that is what I will be focusing on more in this channel, how to grow your business and sell yourself as a wedding photographer. If you want to be a successful wedding photographer and learn how to go full-time and make well over 6 figures a year this is the channel for you!

It true 😂 this is what people wanted tho. My new stuff isn’t very warm at all. The trends are going back to normal natural colors
Love all of these! Thank you for sharing!
I was sleepy, but after your video had started, it opened my eyes! I love your framing, learned a ton! Thanks
What was the little light you were using during the getting ready with me? Thanks
It's the Pocket Lite RBG from amazon. its blue little phone size light and can create any color or temperature, its like $100 on amazon
Falcon Eyes Pocket Lite
Absolutely love your work dude. Any chance you can drop the name of the presets you’re using as your base? Love the colours
Hi excellent photos what action or preset do you use to get that warm tone in photoshop. Many thanks
What lens did you use most of the day ? Really great video thank you x
Just to tell I like your video and even more your pictures :)
Thanks. this is perfect!!! Im a wedding photographer in Central Florida and I'm going to LA in October. I'm looking to book a few couples while im there and these spots look amazing! Im looking for any kind of mountain, canyon, desert or rocky cliffy beach since we dont have any of that here in Florida xD
Do you have recommendations on export settings and online gallery file types? Struggling with clients having noisy photos after then download from the online gallery and I’m not sure what to change to fix that? This is one of the best photography channels I’ve came across keep doing big things man!
Enjoyed watching this! Making me want to go mirrorless more and more as the minutes pass 😂
Are you using one body during the whole wedding, and what is your go to lens for the that ceremony?
Brilliant video, thank you! What lens did you use for the ceremony please?
Realy nice shots
Thanks
Thank you! I found your video after 2 years you posting it. I have a question regarding the a7iii camera. I am seeing a lot of people with their shutter broken at lower shutter count like 20k - 50k. Did you ever experienced something like that with your camera. I also have a a7iii but it makes me feel really uncomfortable when i remember there is a 60% chance things getting bad according to what I read and saw. Thanks again for the videos.
Very nice work
great commentary...bokeh IS overrated!
Bokeh is overrated until your background is ugly. Then its necessary Lmao
It's fun seeing the similarities and differences of workflows between a wedding photographer like yourself and a bird photographer like me haha. Enjoyed the video!
Loved your own preset at 25mins. Beautiful look. would love to try it on some of my images as well. Any chance you'd be willing to share it ? Cheers mate. awesome video. I'm a follower after this one! love your thought process
Thank you! Yeah it's essentially Dirty Boots & Messy Hair DB-01 with added color to specific colors green, yellow, blue. Maybe I'll make a video and share the preset. But kinda feels wrong sharing the preset because it's 95% dirtyboots preset and they sell em.
sorry i didn't pay attention to that. yeah it does make sense. I'll look them up. Thanks @@Andrewphoto
Listening to you talking while selecting photos is funny 🤣 its like listening to myself
Thanks, I feel like its a podcast / editing tutorial hybrid haha
I think it was a job well done. I love the fact that you at least show almost every shot you take. The shots are amazing
Hi! Do u use continuous focus when people are walking towards you?
I use continuous focus 100% of the time
📷🥇🥇🥇
Nicee do u have any of how you edit the photos?
Great shots, great vibes, but editing is off. Groom suits are originally royal blue that has been changed to navy blue after editing. Pictures essentially are not reflecting how things actually were. One of my pet peeves.
Plz wedding videos upload
How’d you get good even light for the night time group photos! They can put great!
I use a flash with a defuser and also am holding a constant light. Camera settings are 1/200 shutter speed and f1.8 and ISO 2000, then put your flash on TTL (which is auto for flash) and then you can run around and shoot all night no problem! The light defuser is called the Gary fong light sphere, it’s like $90 but work’s incredibly well! Looks like a nice soft box and always gets great even lighting!
Amazing video!🙌 How did you shoot 35 and 85 at the same time?🙂
I hold my cameras bottom to bottom against each other as if to join them as one camera and then make sure they are tilted correctly for the photo. And then I hold them both with both my hands and make sure my thumb or pointer finger is on the shutter button. It looks pretty funny when I’m doing it but it gets the job done.
@@Andrewphoto Smart and impressive! Thanks for the answer! 🤩
Nice! I'm curious why no light is used.
Thank you so much. I have run into quite a few gate keepers and it's frustrating. I was voluntold for a wedding, never having done one, not even in my wheel house and I just learned so much from watching this. In your opinion what's the best camera to use, I only have a beginner level rebel t7 2000d with an 18-55mm lens and a 50mm lens. Also can you recommend a good slave flash for my camera as my son broke the one it came with. TIA ❤❤
Good to hear! Yes id buy a Sony A7 iii as a cheaper option for professional wedding photography. I have quite a few. You can get better cameras if you have budget for it. Any new mirrorless camera canon or Sony or any of the ice cameras these days are more than good enough. It gets to a point where the gear doesn't even matter, if your photos and prompts and what you are photographing is good, thats what makes a good photo. But generally speaking if your camera body is less than $2500 it's probably not a great camera. Full frame is pretty essential for pro photography. I shoot with 35mm prime lens and 85mm prime lens for the whole wedding day. it's the best combo for weddings. As for flash idk just dont go cheap on your gear and you will be in good hands. I aimed for a mid priced flash, basically the more expensive the flash the brighter it flashes, meaning you can shoot flash photography from across the room and have it light up enough for a good photo. Dont go cheap on flash unless you plan on staying close and wanting to upgrade your gear soon after you buy it. Rule for life, you always get what you pay for.
Un detras de camara que me dejo mareado, utiza en el futuro tu telefono para grabar tus videos y te aseguro que lograras buenos resultados A camera behind that left me dizzy, use in the future your phone to record your videos and I assure you that you will achieve good results
In the end, it was not what happened, but what was in the mind of the photographer
These are gorgeous!!! I love your editing so much. 😮😮😮 Do you by chance sell any presets?? I would LOVE the indoor ones I have such a hard time with indoor colors. 😂
Can I just ask. Why are the photos orange? Just being curious?
Idk this was in for a minute. I think KZread also made the colors a bit different too but yeah this is just a style I guess. I don’t love it anymore. Back to natural colors
What is your go to settings for group photos ,and any advice for flash modifier in small spaces? Tnx
I just stumbled upon your videos. And in a matter of 5 minutes, you've taught me more than half of the KZreadrs I've watched for 10 years. That is such an accomplishment! I was hooked within minutes. SUBSCRIBED! 😊
Stop lying.
Beautiful work ! Do u have any editing tutorials thank you!
Did you shot the whole thing on your 85mm or switch between two different lens on different bodies
What’s ideal time line for a wedding day
200k photographing weddings? Are you also having associate photographers sent to other weddings?
I’m curious why does every photo make their skin tones look overly red?
im curious why your name is 10-4a5
Hey Andrew, u think a 59 yr can be a wedding photographer 😊
honestly, no. not even trying to be mean or anything, but reality is to be successful in the wedding industry (at least here in southern CA) most couples are looking for a young attractive fun energetic photographer to capture and compliment there wedding and "hangout" with them during the day. I am approaching 30 years old and ive even noticed a bit of a demographic change as I get older, younger couples dont book me.
@@Andrewphoto not even if I look like Keanu Reeves and can bring down dozen bad dudes 😉
@@Andrewphoto - I did wedding photography in the Bay area for over 30 years. I did my last group of weddings until I was 71. Don't tell me that 30 years old is getting too old!!
thanks for sharing this awesome video ..
Fantastic! what gear you use on this job?
Awesome photos Andrew I had a question what little constant light were you using in the bridal room? It was a good bright one. Thank you sir
It’s called “Pocketlite RGB Falcon” on Amazon. It’s blue and the size on a large phone. Does every color and temperature so you match it to the light temp in the room you’re shooting. It’s $100. Lasts about 2-3 hours. Pretty sweet light!
@@Andrewphoto awesome man! One more question I see you shoot on auto ISO does it work pretty good I never tried it or you should be manual or aperture priority with auto ISO? Thanks again
