<p>Hi there! My husband has been doing wedding photography for almost 2 years now, and starting this season, I am now going to be assisting him at weddings and I am wondering what would be appropriate to wear. He always dresses in nice dress pants and a button shirt w/ or w/o a tie, so should I wear a dress? Just not sure how dressed up I should be since I know I need to be comfortable and able to work in what I am wearing. Any…</p>

We need to use this group and dig deep for answers and learn!<br />
<br />
So I was reading My PPA mag and I came across a great read...<br />
<br />
What makes you special, and how does that relate to the client?<br />
What is your photographic style?<br />
Do you know what your IT is?<br />
<br />
Can we answer these questions and REALLY mean it?<br />
<br />
Ok- I will start.<br />
<br />
I have battled with this early on, maybe because I always need to be in the know on everything I do. I wasted alot of time looking at everyone else's work instead of working on…

<br />
I have battled with this early on, maybe because I always need to be in the know on everything I do. I wasted alot of time looking at everyone else's work instead of working on my own talents. After I realized that I became this free spirited photographer and I could shoot without worrying if this is what people were looking for. I went 100% off the clients and behold I found my niche! I am a girls girl photographer. If somone is looking for feeling and classic style lets say Tiffany's I'm your girl. I book the Brides and Grooms that want a personal photographer-- I hug them all, I bustle, I fold hankies the right way, I repair tracks of tux pants when they snap, I put on boutin on the guys the right way, I send out thank you's, I send my clients a preview collage of there wedding a couple of days after, and so on and so on... I am everything for them and more. I love to do it, I wouldnt have it any other way. If you are thinking there is no way you would do that than your not charging enough!<br />
So my answer, if I know what my IT is? I'm getting there. And my style is classy, romance, princess.<br />
<br />
Your turn!!!<br />
<br />
Lets get this party started!<br />

Lilia Business liability insurance questiontag:www.bridaltweet.com,2009-09-10:3145964:Topic:883662009-09-10T18:22:02.498ZSimple Weddingshttps://www.bridaltweet.com/profile/simpleweddings
Hey photogs! I have a question regarding insurance and the amount of general liability most of you carry. Is it $500K, $1M, or more? I already know how much property coverage I want. And if you don't mind sharing, how much premium did you have to pay? I'm doing some research for quotes and just want to know I'm in the right range.

Hi! I just moved to permanently to Southern California to finish out my senior year of college. While I am in school, I would love to be able to do some 2nd shooting for a few of you to gain experience (and maybe a few bucks). You know how college life can be!<br />

Upon my soon to be move to California, I'm considering changing my business name from "Kristin Joy Photography" to "Blue Palm Photography". Think it's a good idea? Below you will find my new logo and website concepts.<br />
<br />
How did you decide your business name?<br />
What convinced you of it?

What convinced you of it? What do you give 2nd Shooter? High res, low res pics?tag:www.bridaltweet.com,2009-07-10:3145964:Topic:576302009-07-10T16:47:14.830ZSimple Weddingshttps://www.bridaltweet.com/profile/simpleweddings
What do you give 2nd shooter when the wedding is done? I am still not sure about this and I have tried different things but not sure which is best or the normal practice.<br />
<br />
Besides payment, do you give them the original high res files that they took? Or only few (5-10) high res pics?<br />
Or just all low res 800x600 pics?<br />
Do you tell them that wherever they post pictures online they have to credit you as photography company?

I'm so mad!<br />
I set up a meeting with a potential bride a week ago for today, wont you know, she never showed up. She did call and said she didn't want to hire a photographer after all, she has a large family with cameras, and they are going to take pictures.<br />
Ok, weren't you thinking about that before??<br />
Luckily, no money spent, and no harm done.<br />
<br />
I had few potential customers who stood me up, one lady was actually hunting me down for about 2 weeks, even when i was on my vacation out of state. But…

<br />
I will put my add on CL if i have a good deal going, and currently we have a contest, so that listing is still active. Other than that, i see no point. Yes it's free, yes its possibility of getting something/someone, but you will always get what you paid for, and you know what you pay for CL! Sometimes i read through the adds and i want to puke, there are real "Gems" popping here and there.<br />
So, do you advertise on Graig list at all? Any luck?<br />
What other sites you advertise and did you get any leads?<br />
<br />

Hello everyone, i have a question. How many of you employ 2nd shooters for a wedding?<br />
From the very beginning i have partnered up with another photog, who is helping me out when needed, and i help him as well when he needs me. I have never ever shot a wedding by myself, is it weird? I deathly afraid i miss something, or something goes wrong, even that i have 2 of everything. I always have a 2nd photog with me (wow, 2 of everything is right!!) LOL<br />
<br />
Am i crazy?<br />
I would love to get to know more…
