I discovered your channel from your Profoto B10 guide. Love your witty style. I was wondering if you’d consider doing more videos of the B10 (maybe a long term review) as there aren’t many on TH-cam. I don’t have an assistance so the small size of the B10 is very appealing compared to some of the GODOX models.
Really impressed with the amount of gear you bring, plus the idea of providing the client a great experience by seeing photos that night. Do you pump iron?
Glad to see I'm not the only one who packs hand sanitizer and earplugs. I haven't upgraded to the RF version of the 70-200mm lens either because I don't like how far you need to turn the zoom ring to get from 70mm to 200mm. Heading to a wedding right now and it will be my first wedding with my new 28-70mm f/2L on the EOS R5.
Loving all your videos! I'm trying to learn more about posing and that is how I came across your videos and now I can't stop watching haha Can you recommend a reliable over the shoulder strap like the one you carry, I am very interested in one but so scared my camera will fall off. Thanks Vanessa! I will now be tuned in weekly for your videos for sure =)
I finally have an answer for you about my camera strap! creative-teacher-9768.ck.page/1fb5eeedd8 this will be VERY limited so lmk here if you want to know when it's available!
although the gear is nice. Your professionalism, your photos and that same day edit technique... Awesome just doesn't say enough. Great stuff as always
You need an assistant and a packhorse for that lot! The printer is a good call, though, I used to second shoot for a wedding photographer that had an 8x10 dye-sub printer [it was very bulky] and it was a huge hit with the wedding party and guests.
I know the 1dX has been your bread and butter for a long time and you only until recently started getting more into mirrorless. What’s prompted the change? I mean, a 1Dxiii is a hell of a backup/B-camera, but it’s cool seeing you using the R5 as your main body now.
The AF system did it for me. It's so crazy good with the eye/face/head detection that I almost don't have to think about focus anymore and can concentrate on the rest of it (when before focus was a primary thought in my head likely to a detriment).
So much great information and presentation! Quick question: Do you take advantage of the R5's dual card slot or do you rely on backing up to your DJI regularly throughout the day or both? I get nervous about not having back up and/or missing a shot because of slow writing speed. Thank you for your feedback!
Are use both card slots and I’m back up date of for my second shooters photos. You really shouldn’t experience any lag with card write speed shooting a wedding. If you do we need to talk about how fast you’re shooting 😂
I only take my 35 mm f1.4, 85 mm f1.4 and 100 mm macro to weddings. The 70-200 mm f2.8 is too heavy to carry around all day and in dark situations it's not good enough. Off course I bring a few flashes, modifiers and light stands. I take 2 camera's and plenty of sd cards and batteries. I'm not a pro though.
Absolutely love this video! You are very inspiring! Where did you get that mini compact frame to do the ring shot? Thank you so much & have a great day!
I entered. I don't know why as I was pretty much done with contests. Well, seeing it is you I entered. BTW, looks like you may be on the way to get half million entries. You should see how I pack for photo shoots at the shelter. Yes, I have to bring my sand bags. How do you weigh your light stands down to keep them from toppling?
Vanessa -- love your videos. Is the Porter Case no longer available? Tried to look up more information about it and looks like the website is no more. Just wanted to know if you had any insight into this. -- Thanks!
I love the Porter Case! I have and use two of them-the older one is over 20 years old now and holding strong. At one time, they discontinued the one you're using and replaced it with a newer design, but they brought it back recently as the PC II. (I had to use eBay to get my second one.) Wheels for everything!
hi Vanessa, i thought i was the only person who brought ear plugs to a wedding, glad i am not alone, i have a idea for u i think yo have a years worth of video tutorials just by covering what u have in those bags and how to work with them. blessing
I assume you pack all this for local weddings. What do you bring when you travel by air? What do you carry on and what do you check? Do you trust your lights (B10s) in baggage? Or do you rely on A1s (like Seth) and just carry them on with your cameras and lenses?
VERY helpful! Thank you! A couple questions - many (most?) wedding photogs think the ubiquitous 70-200 f/2.8 is a must, yet you rarely use it... reason? And I love your same-day editing philosophy, but when during the wedding do you actually have time to do it? :)
It’s heavy and not good in low light compared to my prime lenses, plus I like shooting shallower than 2.8 :) I edit all throughout the day during down times or times when my second shooter has the action covered.
Hi Vanessa, absolutely love your work, you've been an endless source of information, help, and inspiration since starting out as a professional a few years ago. I'm desperately looking for a new case and the porter looks like an even better option than the Pelican Air 1535. BUT, where on earth can you buy them, I can't find them anywhere on the internet at all. Did they go bust or change name in the past 6 months?
After the first backpack, I thought, okay, that's not so much now :-) Minutes later, I just thought: Please stop packing: -D WOW, that's a lot. I read through a wedding magazine yesterday and saw one of your pictures. That’s just great.
Hi! Thank you so much… and for all of your videos! Do you currently use your B10s with the R5 and high speed sync? I just picked up two new B10x+ lights and I get a bright band at the bottom of my photos in HSS. Profoto is telling me this issue is only with the R5 with the B10s and will be fixed with a firmware update. Do you have the same problem?
I use the b10s and r5 and in the beginning I did have a sync problem like you’re describing and I just updated all the firmware and then it was fine. It happens sometimes since the two companies don’t exactly share tech before comes out so sometimes they have to do some tweaking with the firmware upgrade
I was going to ask about the DJI Copilot because I've seen mixed reviews about it but see you're using the Gnarbox now. Is the Gnarbox worth the extra cost?
I haven’t fully used the gnarbox in a gig yet so let me do that and get back you. But so far yes, but that’s also bc I think I had a faulty dji copilot that I had to send back to the company
hello , can you tell me the mark of the carry on bag , please ?? I AM SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH . I AM FRENCH FROM PARIS , i love yours vidéos , i watch since 2 years almost !! you are good !!!
I wear a black dress most of the time unless it's super cold then black pants and a dark blouse. My gear is wherever it's most inconspicuous and with my assistant. for safety :-)
Today, if I were still a University Photo Instructor, I'd simply tell the Wedding Class students to watch your channel, tell them I'd see them next Semester, then leave the classroom.
@@VanessaJoy I know 😁 I'm not worried. I got some beautiful captures with my 60D and an XSI. The 6D will just make it easier as long as I know my camera and how to use light 😉
Somehow reminds me a process of packing up for the gig in the days I played in the rock band. Actually in those days we had to pack even less items as a band than Vanessa does as a wedding photographer. Actually it looks like a hybrid between packing up for a gig and packing up to leave your boyfriend (your serious face having been considered). I was expecting at the end something like: "Here is the key...AND DON'T CALL ME AGAIN!!!" scene at the door.
@@VanessaJoy You'd be surprised, dear, how much a resourceful drummer can do with just hi-hats, bass drum, snare drum and crash cymbal. That is nothing to say about your level of professionalism as a photographer. Just times are changing, that's all. We are getting enveloped with all kinds of gadgets that make life more convenient, for sure. More exciting? I don't know.
@@VanessaJoy Oh, wow! Really! I am one of the BlockHeads actually. We've once had a smoke together with your Dad while waiting backstage at one of those "get together" stadium gigs. th-cam.com/video/saPXjKp44dw/w-d-xo.html
No I actually typically dial in the kelvin manually. I don’t have time to shoot a gray card in each scenario, but I’m pretty fast at dialing in kelvins to eye
@@VanessaJoy Long time ago I did part time wedding video work, and I remember how hard that was. But it / I was far less organized, far less well equipped (your gear is very nice - I've been a Canon fan since I first got to know the late Chuck Westphal). And I was working for someone else. But there were some nice moments also.
I’m not a fan of only being able to go down to f/4. I deal with low light all the time and in places that don’t allow flash so f/4 is a little limiting
This is amazing to watch, but makes me think, how many assistants do you have on your wedding and how much do you pay them per wedding? Or looking at as free "keeping fit" opportunity for them to carry all that heavy stuff? :D
@@spainweddingphotography not at the moment. I used to but people ended up getting mad when I pointed out the flaws in their business instead of just telling them what they wanted to hear
Yup. I’ve been doing this for 20 years. You slowly build and upgrade until you get your dream kit... and a ton of equipment insurance to go with it lol
oh I can help you tons. :-) making ocf attainable is my thing I do have it covered in my book here: The Off Camera Flash Handbook: amzn.to/30pPfu7 But in a nutshell I use a large umbrella around 12 feet away (the further away the better so that the light fall off isn't too harsh), 7' high and almost right behind me/over my head
Wedding photography has to be the most stressful photography style..if you mess up you can't redo the event. I will stick with Wildlife thank you very much!!!
I finally have an answer for you about my camera strap! creative-teacher-9768.ck.page/1fb5eeedd8 this will be VERY limited so lmk here if you want to know when it's available!
I liked having more MP, especially since I can hit the 1:6 crop with my 135mm on and it's like having a 200 2.0. I also shoot a good amount of video so I wanted the extra power there that the R5 has.
I am being 100% honest when I say I love comments like this. Tens of thousands of dollars worth of gear, and it's the camera strap you're curious about! :D And myself, I was wondering about the memory card holder!
I finally have an answer for you about my camera strap! creative-teacher-9768.ck.page/1fb5eeedd8 this will be VERY limited so lmk here if you want to know when it's available!
It’s more preference. I prefer the 135 f/2 (usually at f/2) bc it’s lighter. I can always walk closer or set my camera crop to 1:6 if I really need to get in closer, which is fairly rare
@@VanessaJoy That's what I figured. If anything it highlights how impressive the R5 is that it can bump the 1dx III to a backup role. Just wish I earned enough to be able to make that choice!
Can’t tell if this is an insult but I’m proud to say I’ve worked to be one of the most luxury wedding photographers in my area and a client typically starts around $9,000-12,000 and adds on another $3,000-5,000 after the wedding.
@@VanessaJoy Definitely you deserve it ,because you are one the best photographer in the world...with Good cameras and lenses (you have the best 85mm ever)!

Hi Vanessa, Thnx for the video. Are you using the RF or the EF version of the 85mm?

my phone :)
That’s a big budget wedding. A lot of work. When do you stop to edit the photos.
randomly throughout the day when I have little pockets of time or my second shooter is enough to cover everything. :-)
As far as lens couldn’t you just use a RF 24-105 to save space? Or is that not a good one in this situation

Please make POV BTS wedding day photo ,,
crazy lady 😂😂😂😂😂
lol you have no idea
Why do you take ear plugs?
have you ever been to a Jersey Shore wedding??
All I ever hear is that the 70-200 is a wedding photographer staple. Curious what about your style makes it unnecessary. Thx.
It’s more preference. I prefer the 135 f/2 (usually at f/2) bc it’s lighter. I can always walk closer or set my camera crop to 1:6 if I really need to get in closer, which is fairly rare
@@VanessaJoy thanks! Appreciate the perspective! 😀
Are you on clubhouse? Just asking so you can talk to your audience if we have questions rather then going through each question on TH-cam?
I am usually once a week. Don’t do it too much though because I have two young kids and zero privacy :) hard to talk with loud kids in the background.
$6,500 backup camera. Seem legit...
That was my main camera before the R5 came out, my main camera becomes my backup. I don't buy two cameras at once almost ever.
@@VanessaJoy That's what I figured. If anything it highlights how impressive the R5 is that it can bump the 1dx III to a backup role. Just wish I earned enough to be able to make that choice!
My dream a camera.
It is a dream :)
How much to charge my clients 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Really how much do you take money for one wedding?
Can’t tell if this is an insult but I’m proud to say I’ve worked to be one of the most luxury wedding photographers in my area and a client typically starts around $9,000-12,000 and adds on another $3,000-5,000 after the wedding.
@@VanessaJoy Definitely you deserve it ,because you are one the best photographer in the world...with Good cameras and lenses (you have the best 85mm ever)!
Ma’am, will you marry me?
I’m married ☺️
Dont get the purpose of wedding coz couple live together. Sex out of wedlock
