I think your content and points are great. I only really dislike point 8: going black and white when mixed light occurs. I get, you fix it. But not really. There is ways to actually fix it. In post you can do a lot, especially with the latest LR masking updates. But also, using flash and modifying the scene.

Great video. I skipped the bug spray for a shooting last tuesday and now I've learned a lot about removing red skin tones instead ;-).

Thanks so much!! you are such an amazing photographer and someone to look up. thanks for all the time and info you share. The last thing you said, "this is kind of a dream job, just reflect on the day….. have the sister's wedding… ". I actually did a wedding last year and 3 of the bridesmaids were recently engaged, all three of them contacted me and two booked me. The third bridesmaid was interested on a date I was already booked for. I could not believe it!! all three! and one of the guest bought a family gift certificate!! They all commented on the experience they had. Most definitely one of the most important points you mentioned. 🙂

Just as a tip with LEDs. I’m America, LEDs flicker at 60hz so you want to use a shutter speed of 60 or a multiple of that. Everywhere else in the world I think is 50hz.

Bug spray: if it contains deet beware of it getting near to your photo kit. It smeared the manufacturer’s printing on my light meter!

Good info Taylor….weddings still terrify me!!

Thanks for all your content, it's SO helpful! I've booked my first wedding for August 2022 which is super exciting but also a bit terrifying as I totally don't feel ready yet! (I've only seconded at one wedding and this booking came from a recommendation from one of the guests at that wedding) I currently only have one camera body and a 35mm 1.8 and 85mm 1.8, I'm going to try an buy another camera body but I think I'll need to rent a lens, would a 70-200 be the best? I also need to figure out flashes as I've only worked with natural light up to now but the venue is notoriously dark…not really sure where to start with it all!
