I know what you’re thinking.<\/p>\n

Another photographer blabbing on about his camera gear.<\/p>\n

Well, as much as I do love discussing camera gear, this update is really more about how my tools and techniques will benefit you as a bride or groom-to-be.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I wanted to give you a complete ‘behind the scenes’ look at what I will use before, during and after your wedding.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, you will then understand a little more about the process and thus what to expect when your wedding day comes around.<\/p>\n

Having said all that, let us begin with my favourite subject.<\/p>\n

My Camera Gear<\/h2>\n

Don’t worry, I’m not going to bore you with talk of frame rates and megapixels, I went through all that in My Wedding Photography Gear<\/b><\/a> post last year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You know what would really help me out?<\/p>\n

Warn all your guests that I will be turning up with three cameras attached to my body.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I’m joking of course, I’m getting pretty good at responding to people who ask me about them these days.<\/p>\n

I even have a standard comeback that you can listen out for at your wedding.<\/p>\n

Guest: Do you really need three cameras?<\/i><\/p>\n

Me: Now you’re starting to sound like my wife!<\/i><\/p>\n

Both: *Chuckle and walk away.<\/i><\/p>\n

Actually that’s fine, I enjoy a little banter.\u00a0 It breaks the ice.<\/p>\n

So the question you might have is why on earth do<\/b> I need three cameras?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Well, I have three lenses that I use 95% of the time covering three fields of view.<\/p>\n

At any given moment during a busy wedding day I may need any of these three lenses.\u00a0\u00a0Having them all locked and loaded and on my person makes it much less likely that I will miss a moment.<\/p>\n

Another key factor is that it is much less likely that all three will break down at once.<\/p>\n

I am fortunate that I have never had a camera fail on me during a wedding.\u00a0 When that day comes I will still have two working cameras left to carry on shooting with.<\/p>\n

I do hope my wife is reading this.\u00a0\u00a0She really does ask me why I need so much gear.<\/p>\n

For the photographers!<\/h3>\n

I realise that no matter how much I try to write this for the benefit of my future brides and grooms, most of the readers will probably be fellow photographers.<\/p>\n

So, photographers here are all the interesting bits.<\/p>\n

Non-photographers, here are the boring bits.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

My three camera setup comprises 2x Nikon D750s<\/a> <\/strong>and 1x Nikon D600<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The D750s carry\u00a0Sigma 35 f1.4 Art<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Sigma 85 f1.4 Art<\/strong><\/a> lenses respectively.<\/p>\n

Those 2 cameras are suspended from my body attached to a HoldFast MoneyMaker<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

The D600 is pretty much always paired with a Nikkor 50mm f1.8G<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I clip that camera to my belt using a Peak Design Capture V3<\/a><\/strong> and a Pro Pad V2<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I get a lot of questions about the Sigma 85mm Art<\/a><\/strong> lens and whether it is any good.<\/p>\n

In my opinion, if you are on the fence about buying one I can only tell you that it is amazing and that you should go for it!<\/p>\n

If you do get one I will also suggest that the first thing you should do is calibrate it.\u00a0 \u00a0I noticed that it was missing focus massively until I fine-tuned it.\u00a0 If you’re not sure how drop me a message and I’ll share my technique.<\/p>\n

The photo below was taken with the Sigma 85 attached to a Nikon D750 @ 1\/200s, f1.8 ISO 180, taken around sunset.<\/p>\n

That lens rocks!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The downside?<\/p>\n

It’s huge!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Flashing<\/h3>\n

When the sun goes down, out come the flashes.<\/p>\n

I bring 4 speed lights along with me, 1 is a Nikon sb700<\/a><\/strong>, the rest are cheaper but still perfectly serviceable flashes made by Yongnuo.<\/p>\n

I slap a variety of MagMod<\/a><\/strong> bits of magnetised rubber on them for various reasons.<\/p>\n

For the two that don’t sit on the top of the camera I use Pocket Wizard Plus IV<\/a><\/strong> triggers to make them flash when I want them to.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I feel like at this point I am probably losing my non-photographer audience so I’m going to move on.<\/p>\n

If you want to carry on reading about my camera gear head on over to My Wedding Photography Gear <\/a><\/b>for a deeper dive.<\/p>\n

Managing the Client Experience – Before, During & After the Wedding<\/h2>\n

Non-photographers… you can come back into the room now!<\/p>\n

So, let’s say you are interested in shortlisting me as a potential photographer for your wedding.<\/p>\n

For most people the first step is to fill in my contact form<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ever wonder what happens to your enquiry after you hit submit?<\/p>\n

I’m going to pretend you said yes.<\/p>\n

Studio Ninja!<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When an enquiry comes in via my contact form it becomes a ‘lead’ in my customer relationship management software, Studio Ninja<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n

I have set Studio Ninja up to automatically email all enquiries straight away just to let them know that the message is received.<\/p>\n

When I log into the software I am told there is a new lead and I get to see the message that the person left for me.<\/p>\n

I also see straight away whether I have any other weddings or enquiries on that same date.<\/p>\n

All this means is that I can respond to enquiries much quicker and be confident that I am available when I say I am.<\/p>\n

Once I have confirmed my availability and we have discussed options<\/strong><\/a> I am able to fire over a quote for exactly what the couple want.<\/p>\n

If they go on to accept the quote then it becomes a Job in my Studio Ninja.\u00a0 The job contains a workflow covering the process before, during and after the wedding.<\/p>\n

For the client there is a single portal containing the invoice, payment receipts, the contract and questionnaire.<\/p>\n

For me I have all my weddings arranged in workflows so I never miss a task and always keep on top of meetings, shoots and quotes.<\/p>\n

Awesome!<\/p>\n

LoupeDeck<\/h3>\n

I want to throw in a special mention to the single most valuable purchase I made when it comes to improving my photo editing technique.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I know we’re heading back into ‘boring for non-photographer’ territory here but I think this is worth a mention.<\/p>\n

Once your wedding is over I load your photos onto my computer, back them up<\/strong><\/a> a couple of times to make sure they’re safe, and then my LoupeDeck<\/strong><\/a> gets to work.<\/p>\n

If you’re anything like my wife you will be scratching your head wondering why this is so much better than the keyboard and mouse I already had.<\/p>\n

I am confident that this has improved how precisely I edit photos.<\/p>\n

Would you notice the difference to your photos?\u00a0 Maybe not.<\/p>\n

Well, at least you can be happy in the knowledge that I am a lot more comfortable and a little happier when I’m working on them for you.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, how was it for you?<\/h3>\n

So that about wraps it up for this little look behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

Like I said earlier, I imagine most of the readers of this article are fellow photographers who are interested in what tools and gear I use.<\/p>\n

That’s fine with me, I love being part of the wedding photography community and am always happy to share.<\/p>\n

If you are not a photographer and still somehow found this interesting then I really would love to know about it.\u00a0 Feel free to comment or message me with feedback and suggestions.<\/p>\n

And I really shouldn’t finish without mentioning that I am indeed a wedding photographer, so if you happen to know someone looking for one please do send them my details :-).<\/p>\n

See ya next time,<\/p>\n

For those still reading this, yes, I know I should have moved the laundry basket in the kitchen when I was taking these photos.\u00a0 I didn’t notice when I was taking them because I wasn’t looking through the viewfinder and now it really annoys me.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
