Second shooting is such a great opportunity for anyone looking to get more experience in shooting weddings! You’ll get to practice in a less-stressful scenario, build your portfolio and watch how I handle a wedding day! So if that sounds like something you’d be interested in, keep on reading! 

While I wish I could offer this opportunity to everyone, I only take on 2 or 3 qualified shooters each year. It’s important for me to not only find people who are going to deliver quality images, but also treat my clients well!

  • Carry bags, light stands, equipment, etc as needed
  • Shoot on their own as needed (groom getting ready in particular)
  • Gathering family members for family formals
  • Keep a positive happy attitude all day long!

Applicants must also meet these requirements.
