This is brilliant!!! First thank you sooo much for your time. Here’s my questions… What medium format film cameras would you recommend starting off with? What is the one thing you wish you knew when you first started shooting film? Lastly what kind of scanner do you like best? XxX

Hey guys!!

My dream is to shoot film and have it become part of my brand (still saving my pennies!). Hybrid shooting sounds really appealing to me and I love your work so much! Can you go over the benefits of being a hybrid shooter?

I’m sure you’ve answered this before, but how often do you shoot film during a wedding and at what points throughout the day do you pull out your digital camera?

One more!! How much extra are your expenses for one wedding since you’ve incorporated film vs. digital only…did you have to raise your prices?

Thank y’all so much!

Hi friends! You knew this question would come from me : How do you get ALL of your images to look so consistent! No matter where the shoot is, what the subject looks like..it’s consistent! Your work is so beautiful!

hi michael & carina!! =)

my question is: how did you start attracting brides in your business? what’s the bet way to get WOM marketing going during slow spells if you shoot mostly portraits but would like to move to weddings?

thanks so much!

How did you begin with to get to know your cameras?
I feel that there is so much I should know and try so that I loose my excitement soon.
And there is a friends child I was asked to take photos from, but it feels a like a big task, although I know it is just for fun, can you give me some starter tipps? =)

I remember you sharing at the end of 2013 that one of your goals had been to “make it” as a photography team. I’d love to know how you jumped in and booked those first few weddings! Thanks – love your work!

I’d love to know more about your process regarding OCF during receptions? What’s your set up during that time? Do you use any diffusers on your off camera flash? Thanks!
