Omg PLEASE do an editing contest. KJ all access and yalls TH-cam channel is literally my Netflix and it’s a bonus that it truly transforms my business 😂
You two are such a great team! Michael, what a great support you are, and making your wife shine in the process! Together you must give your clients an amazing and memorable experience! No wonder you two are so loved!
So good! My husband and I couldn't stop laughing because everything you guys said were things we've said/done. "We need to talk about what didn't go well today", "So you didn't get a full-length shot of the groom?", "Oh wow, you posted one of MY images" 😂
Katelyn, pop him, talking while you are talking, but seriously the two of you are awesome. Your channel is different than anything else out there for wedding photography and your husband as the second shooter and part of your business gives you and your channel a different flavor. Both of you keep up the outstanding work and your husband is a funny guy. I thank the both of you for inviting us into your home and into your lives. Do you do just slides for the reception or a treatment video.
Hello! This was super helpful. I do have a question though. I am going to be a second shooter at a wedding this fall and the reason why I was hired is because the couple doesn’t like the way the first shooter photographs. How can I accomplish what the couple wants without stepping on the toes of the first shooter?
Love you guys so much! I can’t wait to actually start photographing weddings but I’m so scared and I can’t even get a gig as a second shooter because they all have amazing websites and portfolios. Anyway, someday. You two are the best!
How many photos you both shoot? Then you choose the best ones and edit and delivered so the couple can choose for print or maybe you edit only those will printed? Thank you!
Don't feel bad, I'm red/green color blind and I struggle with colors (wife and kids with "proof" my edits. I think it's part of the reason I have been doing more and more black & white images, but I've always loved black & white.
M&K - What would you guy's suggest when its blazing hot outside as you are photo shooting a wedding, do you think it's appropriate for a male photographer to wear dress shorts?
Great, great information, Thanks. As I have grown older in my wedding shooting career, I have seen the move by women into photography and because of my years of experience I have wanted to give back knowledge, so I have taken on the role of training younger photographers, mostly women with what skills I have learned over the years and also learning from them the new styles and ways of a new era of shooters. Women in photography have brought a female aspect to weddings that only the fairer sex can and have given the whole wedding shooting a shot in the arm that has long been overdue. They have the bookings and by training and working as their second shooter I can train and provide them with leadership while at the same time building their confidence as the wonderful photographers that they are and maybe just don't know it yet. Your training is so helpful, Thanks a bunch.

The editing competition would e great 😃 and i bet it would be close 😊 .. Who would be the judge btw? 😜
Good question! Maybe we'll bring in a special guest to judge! OR maybe we'll have Micah and Evy judge 😂
How many photos you both shoot? Then you choose the best ones and edit and delivered so the couple can choose for print or maybe you edit only those will printed? Thank you!
We deliver 80-100 photos for each hour we are shooting!

Black and White!! That’s a job for him haha!!

Michael has never worn shorts to a wedding. Not that it can't be done, but I don't think we ever would.
Where is the edit-off challenge?
Michael is too scared!

When the bleeps happened, I was like Oh... I thought ya'll were Christians then the bleep and I was like Oh..I guess not lol
haha those bleeps aren't covering cuss words haha
Is better to replace the world details with the accessories so they understand better what are you talking about
Thanks for watching!
Is James your maiden name or just a business last name?
Maiden name!
Why did the intro say Michael James?
it's a joke, people think that's our last name but it's my maiden name!
This poor guy!
haha why?
Do it….. edit off! Edit off! Edit off! 🫢😂
I liked your honesty a lot & the things you mentioned are so useful, all the best luck is your inshallah 🤍
Thank you so much 😊
