I have studied and have been doing it as a hobby and second shooting for others, before starting my own business in spring of 2024.

What do you use to do content creation?

Accepted Answer

I shoot all the content creation videos on either my specialized content creation camera (Osmo pocket 3), or my iPhone Pro (which is the industry standard). It allows for the quick turn-around time, and the format is compatible with all the social media platforms they are meant to be shared on.

Although I did for many years while studying the art of photography, I currently use an established lab to process my film.

Question 8

Why is anything related to a wedding much more expensive than a different kind of event?

Accepted Answer

Because it's not just any day. It is a lifetime milestone that has been long-awaited.  Photographing a wedding is not for the faint of heart. One has to have the adequate gear and technical skills to make sure there is a back up in case something doesn't go as planned and that often comes with a higher investment in equipment. Additionally, much more time is put into editing a gallery of 100's of photographs vs a small photoshoot or more informal event. (for example, unless its really distracting, I am not removing an exit sign from a corporate event party photo, but will 100% do it for a wedding with no hesitation).
