It’s Wednesday! You know what that means? Wedding Wednesday is here! Today I’m reposting a post I blogged back in October because, in my opinion, it’s an extremely important topic – worth mentioning twice 🙂 Since I started shooting weddings, I’ve included a complimentary portrait session in my collection.

Having a great second shooter is beneficial for any wedding photographer. I would know – I shot my first two years solo and only last year did I add my husband into the mix full time. Before, I hired amateur photographers who were building their portfolio. While I enjoyed their company and the images they photographed for me, I will always choose my husband over anyone else, even though he doesn’t want to become a primary photographer. In other words, he only shoots with me for me and because of that, he is only getting the images he knows I want/need him to get. Also, he does all of the driving to and from the wedding so I can eat/sleep/edit on the passenger side! The fact that he’s good looking and I like having him around to look at isn’t the main reason. Or is it? Haha, I kid!
