Wedding Photo Hangover: Recent Episodes
Wedding Photo Hangover
The finest in phototainment! We're an irreverent look at photography. This podcast, like aspirin, will help you recover from your wedding hangover. We aren't just trying to make the best photography podcast, we're trying to develop the best community for photographers. Why? Because we all need a place to laugh and destress. Come join us!
Dustin and Steve talk about life as a wedding photographer when you have a child surprise in the middle of wedding season. Okay, not a child surprise. This isn't the Witcher... but an unexpected bundle of joy nonetheless. They also talk about how you should react if a client doesn't really want you at the wedding. As well as the pains of shooting a wedding video solo when things like card reading are brought up on the day of the wedding, moments before the ceremony as something the client wants to do before the ceremony. It's a tough week.
Beer Talk:
Steve - Fuity Nuggets X2 by 450 North Brewing Company
Dustin - All Day IPA by Founders brewing Company
Q&A:
Why do clients still ask to see examples of photographer's work when photographers post their work everywhere online?
How long did you keep shooting weddings after getting pregnant? How long after childbirth till you started shooting again? How did you feel?
What considerations do you need to make before having an associate shooter work for you?

This week we talk about how Dustin tried to murder Steve in cold blood but make it look like an accident. I don't know what else there is to write about here... Lightroom Masks, I guess? Steve almost died for this episode art. Wake up people, Dustin attempted to murder him. Why isn't anyone calling the cops? Does no one read these show notes? A man's life is on the line.
Beer Talk:
Steve - Fruity Nuggets 2x by 450 North Brewing Company
Dustin - DDH Ever Clear by Bearded Iris
Q&A:
What would you do if another photographer hired you for a shoot and then lied about how the shoot went as a marketing ploy for their business?
How do you respond to clients asking for discounts because they went on too many vacations?
Should you supply RAW files to corporate clients?

This week Steve and Dustin talk to Kathy Netti and Mollie Beach of Kodak Professional about Kodak Professional Select. This is a new software/service from Kodak Professional that helps photographers cull their photo shoots quickly by using AI to group photos and surface the best photos, so that you don't have to look at all the photos where your subjects are blinking. Kodak Professional Select also helps you cull details too by grouping photos of objects in a similar way to how it does photos of people, so you can pick out the most in focus, best looking detail shots from your wedding day too. Steve and Dustin also pitch some pretty great ideas to Kathy and Mollie for Kodak Professional to use going off the basis of this amazing technology, like a special Midnight Edition of the software.
If you want to sign up to use Kodak Professional Select just head over to http://www.kproselect.com/ to sign up for your free 30 day trial today.

Dustin and Steve are easing back into the new world of post-covid-vaccine weddings. Dustin is busy with real estate. Steve is trying out new straps for his cameras. Corny puns. Slippery nips. HBO Max. Steve drops big news and then even bigger news to end the episode.
Beer Talk: Steve - Bourbon Barrel No Sparge Imperial Golden Ale from Taxman Brewing Co. Dustin - Soft Parade by Short's Brewing Company
Q&A: What do you do if you live with someone who gets covid, but you're still testing negative? Do you call off your shoots anyway? Is anyone still on clubhouse? Do you cater to guests who ask for photos of themselves 3 days after a wedding? Have you ever had a couple go at it when you ask them to kiss? Like, really go at it?
Episode art by everyone's favorite wedding celebrant Josh Withers.

Adam Mason of The Bearded Tog and Mason Photography joins us this week to talk about life, photography, music, cryptocurrency, scientific films, dogecoin and the movie Whiplash. Steve and Adam also talk about conference photography, political photography, and commercial work. The also talk about whether or not your mortgage company cares about how you made your money.
Q&A:
Should I let my husband second shoot for other female photographers when he's never shown an interest in it before but one of my competitors keeps asking if she can hire him?
I grew my beard out and we stopped booking clients, should I shave my beard so we can make money again?
My sister thinks her photographer deleted her wedding photos because I brought my camera to the wedding. She's demanding I pay for a new wedding or else produce a complete gallery of her wedding when I didn't shoot anything but getting ready. What do I do?
I booked a client at a discount because I was supposed to get show photos from their BDSM conference on my site but when I showed up they took my phone and cards and forbid me from saving any photos anywhere. Can I ask for more money now since they didn't live up to their end of the agreement?

This week Steve talks with Casey Fatchett of the Nerdy Photographer. They talk a lot about Casey's podcast and how he makes it. They also talk about his Heiland 3-Cell Flash Gun. Look it's a pretty tangent heavy episode where Casey mostly entertains Steve with stories about being an actor. He was up for a roll in Vanilla Sky and he was up to do the voice of the Geico Gecko, and he shares with Steve why he didn't get those parts. It's all interlaced with chat about photography and the need for self-care so you don't die shooting weddings.
Beer Talk:
Casey - 90/~ Wee Heavy from Belhaven Brewery and also some scotch.
Steve - Moon Rambler IPA from Founders Brewing Co.
Q&A:
If I roll a critical fail while shooting a wedding that's making everyone roll to determine how well they'll do (they love DnD)... do I have to critically fail?
Should I ask clients if I can bring my own weed to smoke while shooting their weddings since my clients stopped sharing their joints during the pandemic?
What sort of wrap can I put on my camera body that looks professional but still shows off my inner nerd? (I would consider anything Doctor Who, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5, Star Gate or Farscape related, no Star Wars please)
How can I get a client to stop leaving gross emoji memos on venmo when I sell them stuff? My friends think this guy is paying me for sex because it's all eggplant gush or peach gush every time I make a sale to him.

This week Steve talks to James Broadbent of Narrative and Chasewild about building tools to help streamline workflows for photographers. They talk about Narrative Publish and Narrative Select and how they reduce the time it takes to publish blogs and also cull shoots. Steve and James also chat about Narrative's response to the Covid-19 Pandemic and how Narrative helped out their clients during the past year. Also they chat about how James got started in photography (with a 50mm in Pakistan taking photos of mountains during a trip) and about his destination photography company Chasewild.
Q&A:
Is Narrative Apple only and if so, when will it come to Windows?
I don't like the idea of paying to keep blog posts on my site, but more importantly what is your favorite color?
Can someone explain why photographers waste so much time culling photos? I shoot 100 and I deliver 100. What's the problem?
I shoot family photos on burst mode and need a way to speed up post processing, what should I do?

This week Steve was joined by Brandon Wong of the Photobooth Supply Co. Brandon talked to Steve about why he transitioned from being a wedding photographer to creating a photobooth company that could help photographers and other event vendors make more money. Brandon and Steve also talk about the changes Photobooth Supply Co. made this last year to help their clients keep earning money during the pandemic, and they also talk a little bit about the future of photobooths.
Q&A:
Where do you get your jumpsuits for conferences?
Where do you think AR fits into the future of photobooths?
Do you have to encourage guests at events to take dick pics or does that just happen organically?
If a skunk sprays your salsa photobooth can you clean off the stank with tomato juice?
If listening to this episode finally convinced you to take the leap and buy a photobooth, you can do that here: https://photoboothsupplyco.com/weddinghangover

This week we talk with Josh Withers about his switch from editing photos on the iPad Pro to a new M1 MacBook. We also talk about some crazy theory about the right way to pose men and women in photos that's some weird toxic masculinity crap, using your Facebook group to charge vendors to post, and looking for a way to get a venue for 500 people that has a 100% refundable deposit and also is available in three months.
Q&A:
Has anyone been shooting in the pandemic?
Has anyone been put into any interesting situations because of Covid?
What considerations do you need to keep in mind for associate photographers if it's your first time using one?

This week we welcome Ulices Del Toro back to the podcast to talk about life after having a baby. We also talk about the Sony A1 and the Fujifilm GFX 100s a little (but not too much because neither of us have those cameras). The photographer of the viral Bernie Sanders photo was interviewed by Rolling Stone and had some thoughts to share about his photo and we also talk about Airmap suggesting that drone flights be monetized by the government.
Beer Talk:
Ulices - Features & Benefits by Stone Brewing
Steve - Augustus Gloop's Secret Stash by Books & Brews
Q&A:
If you team up with another photographer to offer video, should you brand your video on your own or let your video just fall under their brand?
If a wedding is rescheduled and then happens without the photographer, but the clients still want photos in their wedding attire, what do you charge them?
If you don't want people giving speeches and doing vows to stare at their phones, then is gifting them notebooks or vow books a good idea?

How has the dismal vaccine rollout affected photographers? Some photographers have been kicked off Instagram since the insurrection on January 6th, is it related (it's not)? We're demanding to see location information to find out (we're terrible people and we're actually quite sorry for all of this). Sony a7iii impressions from shooting elopements and engagements. What a weird world it is to leave Canon for Sony. That weird Via Getty story from the insurrection. A daredevil photographer gets arrested for burglary. Lots of coronavirus talk and a few political things (we're not sorry about that... it's been a weird time period and we think it's important to talk about that kind of stuff... even if we're just making jokes). Sony Airpeak updates and sneak peeks. It's sexy (just like this show).
Beer Talk:
Steve - Gulo Gulo India Pale Lager from Wolverine State Brewing
Dustin - Nothing... Not Even Water
Q&A:
Any tips or advice for trying to reach a different, more high end, market?
Should all hobby photographers be shot and their bodies put on display as a warning to others? (hard no)
What is a fauxtographer?

This week we're talking Christmas gifts and the things we missed in 2020 and the things we're looking forward to in 2021. But it's mostly not holiday related. We have updates on birds that rhyme with Sony as well as updates on more terrible things that Pass is doing. We're also talking about the longest exposure photo ever taken, a touchpad replacement for a shutter button and DJI being put on the economic blacklist. Plus, drone photos of landscapes that look rather phallic. Nature's d**k pics.
Beer Talk:
Steve - Exemption from Taxman Brewing Company
Dustin - Yellowstone Bourbon
Q&A:
What do you do if a second shooter takes a bunch of photos that aren't deliverable in any way, shape or form?
Should you switch from Android to iPhone so your photography business brand seems more luxurious?
Is it okay to not pay a photographer for their work if they showed up late with a child?

This episode is weird. Dustin could have sent Steve his audio. Steve could have asked for that audio when he realized it wasn't there... but then Steve's massive frustration with Dustin's weird Skype glitches wouldn't shine through in the episode and then people would just think Steve and Dustin were frustrated for other reasons than technology... So here's that sweet Skype audio everyone craves so that you all know what horrors Steve and Dustin faced.
This week we talk about the AirPods Max, Dustin's new fugly Kickstarter shoes (they're worse than moonshoes somehow), and people dying during or after shoots. It's a little bit morose but we promise to handle the topic with same level of tactless crassness that we always bring to the table. We also talk about people developing film in beer. Hell yeah! Finally we talk about the Sony Pony Droney (which we hold is a better name than AirPeak).
Beer Talk:
Steve - Eirik Bloodaxe (the best beer in the world) by Scarlet Lane Brewing
Dustin - Fat Tire by New Belgium Brewing
Q&A:
WTF is the point of a photographer listing their gear or camera systems in their Instagram info, etc?
What do you do if a wedding client is hiring different photographers for different parts of the day?
Is it okay to edit noses and dorsal humps of your subjects without talking to them first to make sure it's something they want?

This week we're going hard in the paint on Q&A. We talk about treatment and pay of second shooters, whether it's okay to call other photographers out when they lie, if you should tell other photographers not to buy DSLRs, whether or not you should have in-laws in family photos, and if you should plan elopements for people before they officially hire you. In the post show we talk about 30 Rock, Neil Gaiman's American Gods, Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series and the Stormlight Archive series, and also the Harley Quinn series. It's a book heavy post show... well, audiobooks (our biggest competitor... why are we doing this?).

This is our first episode back after our fraught pre-election episode. It's been a confusing anxiety filled month as our current president refuses to acknowledge that he lost the election. He lost bigly. But we're finally back with an episode full of confusing jokes and poorly done accents. We're talking about Cole Haans and Hush Puppies in followup (trademark John Siracusa) then it's on to talking about RSI issues. Steve's been having a lot. While looking for a new office chair, Steve found some humorous questions and answers on Amazon's site (Dustin doesn't find them amusing at all). We also talk about squishy things to pillow the wrist while using a keyboard and mouse and standing desk converters. Then we talk about bad SEO advice and Parler (and you thought we were done with the political talk in the opener... somebody please end it). Also, Dustin talks about his Santa sessions and Steve mentions his frustrations with Pixifi (which isn't as good as hornybook which is a software that will get you there, according to Dustin). We also spend a long time talking about the M1 chips and the new iPhone's camera (primarily as a result of Josh Wither's fantastic blog post).
Beer Talk:
Dustin - H 2 O (it's not a beer, he's drinking water because he's sick)
Steve - Eirik Bloodaxe by Scarlet Lane Brewing (it is a beer, he's drinking beer despite being sick because he's an idiot)
Our recording went super long, so we're breaking Q&A up into a separate episode which will air next week.

The Ergonomic Chair by Serta for sitting.

How bout that title? Think that'll bypass the title censorship laws (do those exist?)? This week we're talking about Steve's RSI issues, the new Sony a7c, and Steve's fear that he's becoming a videographer again. Also, consensual slap-@$$ at weddings.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Sex and Candy from 18th Street Brewery
Steve - Logue from Half Acre Beer Company
Q&A:
Prints and albums or all digital delivery?
Should you switch your Lightroom to low res previews for the sick speed gains?
What's the best camera for 0-120$ for a bride on a budget that doesn't want an expensive wedding photographer?
Best wedding day hacks?

This week Steve tells a story about using manual focus with live view when it was too dark for his autofocus to work. It was hell. Dustin talks about video lights and we wonder if he's even a photographer anymore. We talk about some Canon, Sony, and Fuji Fast Glass stuff. Also, "They Took Our Jobs!" That's right! We have an in depth and intelligent discussion of the new Skylum software coming out, Luminar AI, that isn't just Steve trying to get Dustin to repeat a line from South Park while Dustin clearly has no idea what Steve is talking about. It's very intelligent. Also, Steve explains Dorian Grey to Dustin, kind of...
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Some Canned Old-Fashioned thing that doesn't even have actual whisky in it
Steve - Elijah Craig and coke and then also a Munsterfest from Three Floyds because it's been a hard few weeks so stop judging me.
Q&A:
If a photographer hires you to second shoot but never tells you where to be to second shoot, should you just leave and drive to the area to be there on time in case they do give you an address at the last minute?
If a former groom gets married a second time wearing the same clothes as when he got married a few years ago while you were shooting his wedding... do you comment and mention that it's the same clothes?
Dustin talks about Tenet. Steve talks about I'm Thinking of Ending Things. They're both disappointed. Also, Dustin doesn't understand how acting works.

What is an associate photographer? Is it okay to put out random requests for an associate photographer on Facebook? What should you do to train an associate photographer? We talk about associate photographers for quite some time... and also about new scams and hoaxes on the internet. Hey, here's a crazy idea. Also, don't vote for Trump. He's literally the reason why weddings can't happen right now and why you can't work. Sorry to get political, but the community of wedding photographers is hurting because of the pandemic and as our nation's leader he's basically done nothing to help.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Nap in the Hammock from Metazoa Brewing Co.
Steve - Rubicon from 18th Street Brewery
Q&A:
What ISO should your Photoshop brushes be set at for rainbows?
Does anyone know of gloves that can be used with a mouse?
Is it malicious if a client cancels their wedding and you cut them a check for the amount of money they paid you and then they issue a chargeback through their credit card company even after receiving the check and then they ghost you?

This week we're talking about the possibility of your photos being used as evidence in a court of law. That's right, if you take photos of people not social distancing or not wearing masks during the coronavirus pandemic, there's a possibility you could be served a warrant and forced to turn over your photos. Which we're all for. We're also talking about how Nikon should leave the camera industry, Kodak's insider trading scandal, Instagram spam, and photographers losing clients because they support Black Lives Matter. We also take a trip to the drone zone and Dustin shares a story of a recent crash and we talk about the impact of drones on wildlife.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Blood Orange Gold Standard from Taxman Brewing Company
Steven - Alpha King from Three Floyds Brewing Co.
Q&A:
Is anyone purchasing education products/services during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Do you change prices in the name of coronavirus?
How much do you hate how casual rescheduling weddings has become due to the pandemic?
What do you do if you delete a client's gallery as your contract stated you would, and then can't find their photos on your hard drive when they tell you they forgot to download their photos before the gallery expired?
What do you say if your friend takes the smooth filter a bit too far when editing photos of you?
What do you do if another photographer offers to edit your client's photos because they think you did a poor job on the edit?

This week's episode is a little weird. First off, it's explicit. Don't listen to it at work or in front of your kids. Second off, we didn't have time to record this week, so instead of leaving everyone hanging we're putting up some segments from some of our Patreon episodes to give people an idea of what the Patreon content is like. So, if you're already on the Patreon, sorry.
Buckle up this week and get ready to hear some weird stories we didn't think we'd ever share on the main feed, and also buckle up for some humor that's a bit more blue than usual. The Patreon is where we let loose. And to both our moms, if you're listening... we're sorry.

This week Dustin and Steve have their friend Ulices Del Toro back on the podcast to form the Blue Shirt Boys group and also to talk about some gear that Sony put out. Like that amazing CF Express type A card and corresponding card reader. Or those new touch screen menus that Sony made. Or those hybrid card slots they created... and yes, I guess we get around to talking about the new Sony a7S III. We solve the overheating issues that both the Sony a7S III and the Canon EOS R5 are experiencing while shooting outside, with one cool product Sony put out that isn't even camera related. We also talk about the photographer that tracked down a couple getting married on the Brooklyn Bridge (to chorus) to give them a photo. We discuss whether or not you should be allowed to skip out on a wedding if people aren't wearing masks or social distancing. We also discuss Kodak's pivot to pharmaceuticals and GoPro's pivot to being a lifestyle brand. Then we talk about the improved eye autofocus on the Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6 and there's a Nikon z5 coming out which will have dual card slots.

Q&A:
If a bride says their photographer doesn't allow videographers who they aren't friends with, but the bride already hired you for videography, what should you do? Should you buy URLs and redirect them to your site to try to boost your SEO?
If a client reschedules their wedding and has you shoot their intimate elopement and just subtracts the hours from their big wedding party package, but then after the elopement cancels the big wedding party and asks for a refund, what should you do?
Should you do free work for a realtor to try to compete with his current photographer for future work?
How do you respond to a client asking you to use their bodies to create shadow puppet photos?

This week Steve is joined by Josh Withers of the Rebel's Guide to Getting Married. Steve and Josh talk about COVID-19 cancellations, unsplash, and drone photos. They also talk about facial manipulation in photos that people do to get those big beautiful anime eyes, just like Josh's eyes in the episode art (which is definitely not a horrifically photoshopped image that Steve made with a photo of Josh's from Unsplash). Steve and Josh also talk about laminar, anthropics, and AI editors. Josh also shares about how to get great audio when you're shooting video (which is always a struggle... I mean, listen to the disclaimer at the beginning of the episode). There's also an adorable guest at the end of the show, but you'll have to watch the video if you want to be blown away by how cute Luna Withers is.

Grab your mask, Ray Bans, and fishing hat. It's time to go full Bernie. This week we've got updates on the Copper Stallion Media story and also on the Shoot and Share controversy. We're talking Godox flashes and their iPhone app and then we're talking a lot about stranger sessions, which are super controversial right now because of the pandemic. Steve goes full grumpy old man. We're also talking about the Canon Eos R5 overheating issues (are there any?) and about the new Blackmagic 12k video camera. We also talk about the controversies with Hustle and Flow and the Do More Photographers group.

Steve talks with James Kelly of the Photographers Craic Podcast. Steve and James talk about the way COVID-19 has affected their very different countries and how they’re both coping. They also talk about James’s equine photography and a little bit about landscape. They also discuss price fixing, cartels and oligopolies.
Beer Talk:
James - some Spanish pish
Steve - some American pish
Q&A:
Should you give a refund if the client pleads for a refund after calling off their wedding?
What are your thoughts on someone referring an unattractive client to someone else because they don’t feel the client is pretty enough? (We hate it)
What should you do if a 2021 couple wants to reschedule and give COVID-19 as their reason for rescheduling?

This is kind of a weird episode in that it's more serious than usual. You know how sometimes when you're a douchebag every conversation becomes a podcast (sorry, replace douchebag with podcaster). Well, that's what I did to Jenn. We were just talking through what the experience of shooting with an iPhone was like and I recorded the conversation to help me as I went to write a blog post about it later... and that turned into this episode.

This week Steve forgets about Dustin. Literally, Steve forgot that Dustin was going to be out of town and had to rope Ulices Del Toro in for an emergency guest host spot... And it goes terribly. Mired in the muck of technology trouble Steve and Ulices barely manage to record an episode. It's all Steve's fault as his computer and Skype seem to just be failing him left and right. In this episode Steve and Ulices talk about a photographer who was shot in the face, an image that bricked a bunch of Android phones, Ulices's time working for Kim Kardashian's publicity team, and some other technology that Steve is breaking, specifically his Apple Watch. Also, Steve and Jenn are switching to PicTime and we start discussing that.
Beer Talk:
Ulices - Lil' Squeezy Juicy Ale from Deschutes Brewery
Steve - Enjoy by 07.04.20 by Stone Brewing
Q&A:
What percentage of horizontal images do you shoot?
If no one shows up to the event before my stated end time, can I ask the caterers if I can take some food home?
How can I keep from losing fans when I post LGBTQ weddings to my Instagram? (get fans that aren't terrible?)

This episode we discuss the highly problematic film Wedding Crashers with Morgan Roberts and Dominic Fitzgerald of the Down Down Critics are Down podcast!

A wedding virgin watched Wedding Crashers... it's so weird.

First up, and most importantly, we're donating all the money the podcast makes this month to Black Lives Matter. We both support BLM and we think you should too. Now, on to our normal show notes... We have a lot of follow up about the Copper Stallion Media story. We didn't do a great job in our discussion of that last episode. Then we're talking about a lady who lost business due to supporting BLM and how she handled it (which was commendable). Central Camera in Chicago burns down and the owner says he's not mad about it. He's just mad about what happened to George Floyd. Then we talk about Shiftcam, BS with Dan Mace, drone deliveries, a 96 mph Mavic 2 Pro, and the Wedding Photographers who claim they need 1k subs to livestream a wedding.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Puppy Slumber Party from Metazoa Brewing
Steve - Keller Haze from Sun King Brewing Co.
Q&A:

Dustin and his cool dad friend, Steve, talk about DC accents, their first shoots with people since the pandemic ended, a wedding photographer arrested for shooting during the pandemic, falling mirrorless camera sales, grandmothers ordered to remove photos of their children from Facebook, a man arrested for posting to Instagram (because he violated quarantine), and the crazy Copper Stallion Media saga and their drama with a former client, Justin Montney. Also lots of Drone Zone talk this week. Steve pitches a Duck Hunt parody called Drone Hunt, DJI might have to stop selling drones in the USA, Dustin pitches starting a blackmarket DJI drone reselling company, Art Streiber shoots Catherine O'Hara with a drone, a man shoots down a drone and is arrested, and a village head uses a drone to distribute masks to people.
Oh and in case it's not apparent from our conversation in the episode, we find the actions of Copper Stallion Media to be absolutely deplorable.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Blue Moon
Steve - Wee Mac by Sun King
Q&A:

This week we're talking about getting back to work shooting photos after the pandemic. A lot of the way we do business is going to change as a direct result of the coronavirus and we want to help guide listeners through that. But also, what's the sexiest underwear a man could wear? Because that has merit for photographers too? Right? No?
Beer Talk:
Jenn - Busted Knuckle by Quaff ON! Brewery
Steve - Stout by Glutenberg
Q&A:
How is the virus impacting our clients in ways we haven't thought about? Outside of just moving wedding dates or having less guests? Like, what if they're abstaining from sex till marriage and have to wait an extra year to start family planning as a result of this?
What are your thoughts on those posts asking for location help in local photography groups?
Can you tweak someone else's preset that you bought and then resell it to someone else?

What are your feelings about breakfast in bed? Do you brush your teeth first? Also, follow up about the 180 degree rule for video/film, new ARM MacBooks Pro, a wedding photographer that may have discovered a stone henge-like structure, and a weird rant about copped cameras and photoshop. We also talk about keeping that seed life spicy in the off season... when there's plenty of time for seed but when your spouse ain't making that money you just don't feel those feels like you used to. We also talk about the PPP loans and unemployment assistance in America.

Dealing with email spam from friends, turning your Canon camera into a webcam, sad coronavirus stories, and tearing down some abysmal facebook ads. We're also talking about drones being used to enforce social distancing, a hummingbird drone used to capture footage of monarch butterflies, and the Mavic Air 2. Also, Scotland might be closed for business till 2021.
Steve goes on a rant about frame rate and shutter speed and he's 100% wrong. And you can trust me that he's 100% wrong, because I'm Steve writing this, and I was 100% wrong. Also, let the record show that Luke McBride was 100% correct and by proxy, Dustin (which pains me to admit).
Beer Talk:
Steve - Repeat by Sufferfest
Dustin - Fat Tire by New Belgium
Q&A:
How do you let couples know you can't shoot weddings that break their state's rules for the pandemic?
Should photographers wear masks to weddings? What kind of masks?
Are photographers letting couples who haven't cancelled their wedding yet block off dates next year for possible reschedules?
Who's using their stimulus/SBA money to pay off their taxes?
If a couple reschedules for a new date but still wants to do a ceremony on their initial date and have their photographer shoot both the small ceremony and the wedding, should they be charged more?
How soon after your state opens for business will you start shooting? (Check out the facebook poll in the group.)

What do you do if you're not given a meal when your contract clearly states you should be given a meal?
How do you decide between black and white and color photos for delivery?

How can you make a move on a client who's getting married soon, without jeopardizing your business? Should Petapixel allow their writers use their enormous platform to go after thieves that no one has ever heard of, thus giving them more attention than they ever could have hoped to receive in the first place? Is it a thing that non-profits can't pay for shoots? What do you do when the conversations with the bridesmaids or groomsmen get uncomfortable? We haven't even gotten to listener Q&A and random facebook questions yet.

Howdy partners! WPH went live this week in the facebook group. We talk a lot about COVID-19 and the continued effect it is having on wedding photographers. We can promise that future episodes won't be so pandemic focused, but we can't promise they'll be as much fun as this one. This might be the best episode we've ever done. So come listen to Dustin do his Dustin thing, and listen to Steve criticize Dustin for doing Dustin (that's kind of Steve's thing after all).
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Blackberry Farm
Steve - Glutenberg Stout
Q&A:
Can we go live more often?
Will the Canon EOS R5 really be $3499?
Why are you guys wearing your Sony Pony shirts?
How do you film weddings without the camera stops every 30 minutes?
What do you think of "fake watercolor" images?
Would you consider changing your editing style for a client?
How do you estimate losses for the wedding part of your businesses due to the coronavirus/Covid-19 pandemic?
How can you speed up your editing process?
Is it a "jerk" move to buy the domains for my competitors websites and redirect those domains to my site?

We're releasing this special episode to talk about COVID-19 (perhaps better known as Coronavirus), and how it's affecting wedding photography businesses and the wedding industry. We know you're hearing a lot about this right now. We know a lot of you are experiencing cancellations (we are too). It's rough out there. So we wanted to talk a little bit about being proactive during this time, communicating with your clients and other professionals, and how you could use this time in relative isolation wisely. We also talk about some ideas for making extra money if you're experiencing cancellations and loss of income. We end the episode by talking about television shows we love watching and other things that make us happy and we hope some of those things bring you joy and comfort too as you're social distancing. We're all in this together, and we can all get through this. Just don't panic and remember to ask for help if you need it. We love you all.

This week we're talking with Boris Verks, the head of product at Dotphoton (now called Rawsie). We talk with Boris about raw files and about compressing them. We also talk to Boris about the White Stripes, the National, Iggy Pop, and David Bowie. And we talk a little bit about Mexican food and Italian food. But mostly we focus on what it is that Dotphoton is doing to help photographers save space. As these new cameras take photos that can take up 80 mb per picture, it's time to start thinking about how we all can save a little space.
Q&A:
Where can I get a printer for pictures that doesn't need electricity?
If you had to survive with just two lenses what would they be?
If a client comes to you for photos after they had photos done by someone else, do you keep your photos off social so as not to piss the other photographer off or do you go all alpha and post them?
What do you do if a potential client tries to hire you to shoot the groom getting ready on the wedding day, but they already have a photographer hired for everything else and that photographer isn't the person contacting you?
Is there a finer moment than starting the car to head home after finishing a triple?
If you loved hearing about Dotphoton (now called Rawsie) and you want to buy it to start saving yourself space, then go here: https://rawsie.co?ref=stevenvanelkx
The photo of Boris used as episode art was taken by Eugenia Balysheva, CEO of Dotphoton (now called Rawsie).

Click the following link if you want to see that dank Star Wars/Pokemon Meme that we talked about in the opener.
First up we're talking follow up this week, and specifically we're talking more about the Sony Pony situation. Next up Dustin updates us on how the free bridal show went and then we slide into the show and talk about what makes for a good lead from a bridal show. After that we're talking about an email we received that we assume is fake, but that is funny as hell to talk about. Someone wanted to know how they could avoid sleeping with someone at a conference after they already slept with them at a previous conference.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Nothing... but he has a story about a bourbon Bloody Mary.
Steve - Corona Extra.
Q&A:
Is it copyright infringement if a real estate agent sends one of your photos out to someone else to have a twilight sky added into it without your permission?
Have you ever thought you made a mistake but then when you started editing realized you loved what you did?
Does anyone else sketch out images that they want to photograph?

We're back with a somewhat normal episode... Well, as normal as we ever get over here. Dustin is concerned that Steve is cheating on him with Ulices Del Toro of the Wedding Photo Podcast. Dustin's doing bridal shows while Steve's been shooting in California and visiting Disneyland and Joshua Tree. Then we're talking about that Nikon D6 and the Canon EOS R5. Then, we're doing a lot of Q&A.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Copious amounts of cold and flu medicine
Steve - Head Start by Sufferfest
Q&A:
If you were cheated on do you stay or no way? (legitimately asked in Facebook photography group... because why not?)
Is there anyone that'll shoot a wedding and hand over the RAWs for a photographer in need?
Why do people think wedding photographers need to have a flash?
Has anyone else ever had a DJ that refused to announce the wedding party at the reception and then somehow found themself roped into the role of announcing the wedding party?
If you didn't give the bride that awful Pinterest inspired photo she forced you to take... then what do you do when she asks for it?
Also, we do a little post Imaging USA wrap up at the end. Specifically we talk about the karaoke bar we went to and what songs we should have put in to sing.

Here's part 2 of our two part episode from the Imaging USA conference. Steve's voice was wrecked in the first episode, and it's even more wrecked in this one. We went to a smoky bar and his voice finally gave up the ghost. Then we did all of these interviews. So once again, while everyone else was out there learning, we were talking to a bunch of companies at the trade show. Still weird. Still wild. In this episode we talk with Canon, Photobiz, B&H Photo Video Pro Audio, Gifyyy and Kiss (a great Indiana company).
If after hearing this you think that Imaging USA sounds like a lot of fun, then sign up to go next year. Just go to their site.

Here's part 1 of our two part episode from the Imaging USA conference. Steve lost his voice on the way to Imaging USA… so that was great. As a result he sounds a little like a middle school student. So you’ll all have to rely on Dustin to bring those sweet tones you’ve grown used to enjoying in your earholes. Anyway… While everyone else was out there learning, we were talking to a bunch of companies at the trade show. It was a weird and wild time. In our first episode we talk with Kodak, Image Salon, Sony, CG Pro Prints, HiDow, Photobooth Supply Co., and MagMod.

First up we’re talking about that new Black widow trailer before we get into Instagram Analytics and doctor visits. It’s been a crazy year but I think we can all agree that Black Widow is so much better than Hawkeye. Next up we talk about Dustin’s experiments with Facebook Live and his big switch to Sony. We also talk about Steve’s purchase of just one measly monopod over the Black Friday sales, and Steve’s new found love of Rogue Filters. Then we talk about the Canon Eos Rs that’s rumored to be announced in February as well as the Canon Eos hybrid mount camera rumor (that’s an EF/RF mount camera, so you can use your old lenses on a new body without an adaptor). Finally, we talk about how everyone needs to stop telling their friends to buy Sony gear. Talk up some crappy brands so that Sony has competition. We don’t want a monopoly. So tell your frenemies to go for a Fujifilm or Canon or Nikon or Panasonic this year and tell your enemies to go with Olympus.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Punk IPA by BrewDog Brewing Company
Steven - InvEster by Taxman Brewing Company
Q&A:
How do you turn down a potential wedding client?
Has anyone shot wedding photos in a cemetery?
Does anyone else have trouble deleting old, unused photos?

This week we’re joined by professional wedding guest, Morgan Roberts! Morgan is a wedding photographer from Moggill in Australia, just outside of Brisbane. We talk with Morgan about getting groped at a wedding, seeing a punch up at a wedding, watching an uncle get into a biffer… and that’s all just one story. We also talk with Morgan about weird copyright requests, Nikon vs. Fujifilm, and breaking out of a three month slump where he didn’t book any new weddings.
Beer Talk:
Morgan - Two 3 Bolt Pale Ales from Green Beacon Brewing Co.
Steve - Bean Counter and InvEster from Taxman Brewing Co.
Dustin - Nap in the Hammock from Metazoa
Q&A:
Do I need shark attack insurance for my surfing Santa sessions? Also, how do I keep Santa’s skin from getting prune-y?
How can I get the okay to do a styled shoot with polyamorous kangaroos if their owner is dead set against it since they aren’t monogamous?
What should you do if your client likes your photos a lot and recommends you to a bunch of other people, but never says they love the photos?
Should I ask the client to replace my camera if someone got a smidge of butter and chicken on it at a wedding? UPDATE: I AM VEGAN AND MY CAMERA HAS BEEN TAINTED BY PROCESSED BOVINE EXPRESSIONS AND DEAD FOWL MEAT, SO IF YOU’RE A LEATHER STRAP TOTING DILDO JUST MOVE ON TO ANOTHER QUESTION!

In our third annual Thanksgiving special, we give thanks for all our blessings from this past year. It's been a great one so we have a lot to mention. We're both super thankful for our amazing families, for the great community that's formed around this podcast, and for listeners who leave positive reviews and then take a dump on Dustin's heart. What a blessing that last one was this past year.
But seriously, thank you all so much for continuing to listen and support the podcast. We look forward to doing a ton more episodes because of all the awesome listeners out there like all of you. Have a great Thanksgiving! For our non-American friends, have a great random Thursday in November where you have to hear Americans talk about things they're thankful for on the internet.

Santa Sessions, the impending Thanksgiving holiday in the US, part 107 study sessions, and software for your cloud client are how we start this episode.

Should you create separate websites and brands for each niche of photography that you want to do? Or is it better to show you do more than just weddings?

STOP VAPING NOW! Look, we gotta get this important message out. Vaping is too cool and the government doesn't want you to look so cool anymore. So you have to stop now... also people are dying... but mostly the government hates how cool you look. So leave your vape stick at home and take professional vapist off your business card. Now that we've finished that, let's get to the episode! We're talking about about reproducing art with your camera, shooting in houses/buildings with art on the walls, and shooting in public in front of artwork (graffiti, sculptures, statues). Have you heard of the iPhone that outshot a professional wedding photographer with some sort of DSLR or Mirrorless camera? Cause we're talking about that this week. We also talk about Steve's accident on the way to a wedding, Dustin's video woes, and the concept of having a minimum amount of money a client is required to book you for if they want to shoot on a Saturday or Sunday.

Josh and his wife Brit run a company called the Elopement Collective and we talk to Josh a lot about planning and running elopements. We also talk to him about the role photographers play in elopements and what his wife and him look for when they're trying to identify photographers to work with for their company.

This week, we're joined by Andy Buscemi and Neal Urban of Wedding Photographers Unite! for a joint episode! Unfortunately, Jimi Ferrara couldn't make it on the show, but we'll get him next time. This week we are talking about non-disparagement clauses, what should you do when a vendor wants to use your photos but won't meet your terms for use (crediting you as the person that took the photo), how to identify vendors you want to work with, how to handle fans of your work when they're wedding guests, Sony cameras, and drones. Neal also brings a conundrum to the table in this episode. What would you do if the videographer got in a bunch of your photos? Photoshop them out? Deliver the photos with the videographer in them?
Q&A:
What is the explanation for a ladder prop?
In boudoir photography, what is the explanation for a pole prop?
If the guests are let into the venue early and that keeps you from getting an empty venue shot, then is there any way to clear the venue or what should you do?
At the end of the show Dustin and I talk for a little while about The Boys, Unreal, Altered Carbon, and Another Life.
And we even get a short little message from the man missing in action, Jimi Ferrara, at the very end.
The photo we used as episode art is from Andy Buscemi. He's actually the guy signing the marriage license in the photo (as the witness). His bride picked up his camera after he set it down and took a photo of him. (and we love that story).
If you want to hear some more of the conversation with Andy and Neal, head on over to the Patreon. The outtakes from this episode are public, so you don't need to pay anything to listen.

This week is an experimental episode. After shooting a wedding together, on the drive home, Steve and Jenn recorded an episode of Wedding Photo Hangover. They walk listeners through the itinerary for the day of the wedding and talk about problems that arose and how they problem solved. Since they are using mobile recording equipment in a noisy environment, the audio isn't quite as good as usual, but we feel that the content more than makes up for that. We hope you feel the same way.
Beer Talk (after they get home):
Jenn - Double DIPA - Azacca + Ekuanot from Taxman Brewing Company
Steve - Cherry Wit-Held from Taxman Brewing Company
Q&A:
What music pumps you up for a wedding day?
Do you charge more for weddings on major holidays?
Have you ever had the strange feeling the bride didn't like you while shooting her wedding?

This week we're talking about influencers and privilege. Why do some people think they deserve to be given free photos and video... or ice cream for that matter? We're also talking about last minute changes to itineraries, how long couples should kiss during their first kiss, what it's like to shoot with a Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k, and why it is that people are calling styled shoots stranger sessions all of a sudden. We've also got a lot of follow up on shooting out of the country, working in politics, shoe fashion for photographers, Dustin's new SEO guy (the rat), and DJI drones.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Jamocha Shake from Arbys (not a beer)
Steve - The Poet from New Holland Brewing Company
Q&A:
What's the most awkward situation you've been put in this wedding season?
What do you do if no one is smiling during a wedding?
If an image is 98% someone else's work (like an overlay or art piece you're shooting with someone's face in it), is it morally right to call it your work?

Dustin is back from Mexico and we're bringing that fire again. This week we're talking about a photographer that punched a groom in the nose (no jokes), the f/2.0 new holy trinity that Canon is rolling out, and guests applauding as the bride walks down the aisle... WTF is up with that? We're also taking a cold look at true crime again with the story of photographer who was caught scamming brides. Busted. But first we have some follow up about piñatas and the relative greenness of California compared to Indiana. Also, Steve's wife Jenn writes in to set the record straight on a lot of dumb stuff Steve has said.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Fat Tire from New Belgium
Steve - The Poet from New Holland Brewing
Q&A:
Can you fire a model for losing weight?

This week special guest Ulices Del Toro of the Wedding Photo Podcast fills in for Dustin. We talk about Youtubers faking trips on Instagram, Unsplash hitting 1 million photos posted, a photographer wearing white to a wedding, a photographer getting angry DMs from a maternity boudoir client's husband (it's convoluted), and how you can make the bridal party happy by sending your second shooter to get this one thing. We also have a lot of follow up about how brown or green the state of California is, whether or not Dustin lied to Steve about a listener, Steve's DJI Mavic Pro watercolor effect woes, and the greatest joke a listener has ever pulled off.
Beer Talk:
Ulices - Melon Cart from Golden Road Brewing
Steve - Old Fashioned (made with Elijah Craig Bourbon Whiskey)
Other beers mentioned: Obsidian Stout from Deschutes Brewery, Most Excellent IPA from The Dudes' Brewing Company, and three beers from the Florida Beer Company only found at Universal: Wizard's Brew Stout, Dragon Scale Lager, and Duff Beer.

This week on the podcast we're talking about the most overrated lens for wedding photographers. We're also talking about trips to California and Mexico, Lightroom being sold on the Mac App Store, the stolen Royal wedding photos and some fun stuff like bloodsucking kissing bugs and Dr. Marijuana Pepsi Vandyck. Dustin also cracks open a cold case. That's right, he's reopened the case of his SEO guy who sent him a letter saying that the SEO business had gone bankrupt. It's juicy as hell. Plus we have a lot of information about smoke bombs, fog machines, and atmosphere aerosol in the follow up. Also, someone admits to making a huge mistake with regard to their photo editing software.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - 420 Strain G13 IPA from Sweetwater Brewing Co.
Steve - Old Fashioned... which is basically a weight-loss shake compared to beer

This week we're talking a lot about that new Mac Pro from Apple. It may look like a cheese grater, but we're pretty certain it doesn't grate cheese. Steve posits a theory about Patrick Rothfuss's book series The Kingkiller Chronicle which is oddly related to this new Mac Pro. We talk about what you should do if a bride asks you not to take many photos of a bridesmaid. We also talk about what it's like to do photography in your thirties.
Beer Talk:
Dustin - Margarita Style Spin-Off from Taxman Brewing Co.
Steve and Dustin - NATURDAY from Natural Light!
Q&A:
What's the weirdest thing you've done for your photography business?
How do you critique a second shooter that's disappointed you?
Should you give money back to someone who cancelled their contract because they no longer want to do a complimentary shoot that was included in their contract?

We know you all love when we talk about football/soccer.

Steven - Deduction from Taxman Brewing Co.
Q&A:

We talk about an indecent proposal first heard about on the I Don’t Give An F-Stop Podcast, Granny’s Red Rockett, Bride’s claiming that their photographer left them high and dry, beer that processes film, and couples that had to wait 50 years to get their wedding photos.

This week we were joined by Kari Bellamy and Marianne Chua of the Amazeballs Wedding Photography Podcast and the Chua and the Bell youtube channel. Marianne and Kari are both wedding photographers based out of London, in the UK. We talk with the two of them about their experiences working as wedding photographers and how they got started. We also talk with them a lot about Secret Cinema, Fujifilm cameras and Sony cameras... because we love to talk about mirrorless kits.
Q&A:
How can I get out of this coffee shop without giving my clients a view of the back of pants which I tore on my way in?
How do I handle a situation with a client whose dog passed away but is still asking for pictures of them and the dog on the wedding day?
Is it cool to cancel on shooting a wedding a month before I'm supposed to shoot it if I get an internship in another state?
Steve brought up an article about a woman who wouldn't pay a photographer unless that photographer completed a checklist of photos. Here it is.
We spoke briefly about Princess Eugenie's royal wedding pics.
Kari talked a lot about some Horrible Logos and Jingles… So we had a Horrible Logo and Jingle made special for the episode. You can hear the jingle in the episode or on the Horrible Jingle site (and that link should also lead you to the wonderful logo that was created).

This episode has a few rants. We put a musical bed underneath them to make them a little more palatable for people who don’t like rants… but if you don’t like angry rants then you probably quit this show a long time ago. So, we’re both a little angry this week and flying off the handle. But it’s for a good cause. We just think photographers deserve to be treated well, and one of us especially thinks that photographers need to treat other photographers well. But before we get to those rants, we gotta talk about this new post-wedding fad. It’s called Mr. Rogering. It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Won’t you be our neighbors?

This week Dustin and Steve experienced a lot of weird energy… So they’re trying to combat it in their durndest by putting out the most gosh gilly wash innocent and fun podcast you’ve heard! They received a strange recommendation on a photo educator’s website. The recommendation seemed to be more concerned with throwing shade at other photography podcasts without mentioning what those podcasts were… It was weird, but we’re still glad to have been on that list of recommended podcasts! Someone put Dustin on a Republican email list and that listener has made Steve the happiest boy alive.

This week it’s all about marketing yourself and what kind of bull crap you’d put up with to book a potential client. Let’s face it, not every client is a dream. But to start, Steve shares with us the tastiest of treats he had while Dustin ignores it and pretends like it doesn't exist. Then we have some follow up on our mattress talk, specifically about the purple mattress. Dustin also talks about some GoDaddy Photography thing but forgets why it was relevant to the episode till later.

Any posing ideas for a couple where the groom is disabled and sometimes in a wheelchair and sometimes on crutches? What do you do if the timeline goes too far in depth? How do you break out of a creative rut? What should you do if there's been a death in the bride or groom's family? A brief call in with thoughts on the Fuji XT series. Why would the family give the photographer a boutonniere? How can you avoid black holes for eyes?
It's almost all questions.

This week we're talking about the Canon EOS R, the Fuji XT-3, and we also talk a little bit about Dustin's new Mavic 2 Pro. It's a gear heavy week and Steve hates it. We also talk about a videographer who asked a photographer for over 400 photos to help complete their wedding video.
Questions: What's the bare minimum gear for getting into wedding videography? What can I use to help with follow focus for videos? Can I ask a photog's client if I can shoot a wedding video for them? How do you get info from brides? Do you make a timeline?

In this episode, Dustin tries to convince Steve to watch a television show named Billions and also a show named Life. Steve confesses he’s been spending all of his TV watching time at a place where everybody knows his name. On the subject of bars, Dustin is drinking a Leinenkugel and Steve is drinking a Goose Island 312 during this podcast. They waste a lot of time talking about blogging strategies and Instagram strategies, before Steve goes on a rant about those stupid big picture collage things people still do on their Insta profiles. Meanwhile, Dustin can’t even download a photo to post to his Instagram.

In this episode Dustin and Steve talk about whether or not they drink alcohol while shooting weddings and also whether or not they drink caffeine during weddings. They also try to talk about the differences between Canon and Nikon and Sony, but they recorded on a Saturday night after drinking some alcohol so they get pretty derailed talking about Dustin's Dilemma with backing the Coolest Cooler on Kickstarter. Also, they go on a random tangent about Steve's waking night terrors and whether or not Bruce Wayne or Batman would be interested in using children's tears to prolong their life.

In this episode Steve and Dustin talk about what it's like working with friends. Steve's audio got messed up and he sounds like he was breathing in helium. Someone put ranch on their steak at a wedding and someone also wore moonshoes to a wedding. We'll let you guess who that was. Dustin makes Steve jealous by talking about a Doctor Who themed wedding he captured. Also, Dustin explains MoviePass to Steve and Steve explains to Dustin why it sounds like a terrible idea that will end with the company going bankrupt.

In the first episode of Wedding Photo Hangover, Dustin and Steve talk about who they are, what their background is, why you should listen to their excellent podcast, and how you can convince your clients to book destination engagement sessions with you. There's also minimal talk about highlander wedding photographers, cool nick names, trips that made Dustin and Steve sick, and locations in the US that Steve likes (hint, Fort Wayne isn't one of them).
