Tuesday Photo Podcast is back next week! Tim is busy climbing Mt Everest this week. Or at least that's what he told me.
doesn't sound worth the effort to second shoot. too much politics
Wait… cards only corrupt if you delete a photo from the camera?
Great tips
How large does your memory need to be for a wedding?
Thanks for this! Got hired for my first second shooting next week and this has been a lot of help!

Great video, in your opinion if you were looking to get hired as a 2nd shooter or even shooting the entire wedding would you say a full frame camera with 2 card slots is a must? This is the only thing that has kept me waiting till I upgraded.
Too much talk on lunches.
Cool! Many thanks!
timeanddate.com a good place to calibrate camera clock
Exactly when i needed it perfect timing
Thanks again for another great upload Taylor! Glad to hear about another season of a photographer in. I mean, the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell after all. So where in Canada am I flying into so we can grab this cup of coffee? Then I can get to painting. 🙂 but seriously, keep it up Taylor. You make some great down to earth material that's both entertaining and full of information you don't hear from many other photographers. I just started my own photo side business and the tips/tricks are great. Hoping to transform my career path in the near future! Cheers -David
Don't be a dink. Got it.
Dude this was really helpful for me. Thanks for sharing this. I totally agree that getting involved in the photography community helps big time. Big fan
This is just good stuff. I like that the main rule is "no big ego". I love second shooting because it's (to me) less pressure, and I get to be helpful to the main and a bit more creative, because the stakes aren't quite as high.
Thanks for the info! Can you do a another video on the flip side? How to find good second shooters, and maybe network in general. I tried joining local facebook groups for photographers, but they were started by media companies and mostly used to promote themselves.
Thanks for the video, my concern is how much should I receive has a second shooter.
And sends to all new seconds…..
@Taylor Jackson Thank you so much, i was waiting for this kind of video forever
