Ive been using eneloops for a few years. Theyre good. But i purchased two 16 bay chargers which will charge and DIScharge. It takes several hours to drain down and recharge but i think its worth it before a long day of shooting.
Nice! People often forget the things we really need to be effective Wedding Photographers. They're not sexy, but… you will certainly be their hero! BTW, I love the lights for rings, we do that too.
All great ideas ……like the cat part !!! hahahaha !!!
I use speakers too!! I'm such a nerd, though, I use a bluetooth speaker built into a fanny pack LOL It's AWESOME for engagement sessions or family shoots in the park!
Added cat value.
I keep a couple of rolls Saran Wrap. You would be surprised how often a bride or maid of honor doesn’t fit the dress.
The AmazonBasics High Capacity rechargeable AA are said to be rebranded versions of the Eneloop Pro. After using some for over 5 years, I tested them and found that the capacity had only dropped about 10%. The amazon basics High capacity AA are about 1/2 the price of the Eneloop Pro! So theirs a quick tip to save you 50% of battery expenses
one thing i do is make a paper checklist and keep a pen/pencil with me. the list can have a specific shot list from the clients to other important information about the day. it might seem old school, but it is more discreet than looking at the list on my phone.
using a Rotolight Aeos?
i got a flashpoint zoom 860ii and dont have to worry about aa batteries anymore or running out of power
I'm speechless
If you want a ready made reflective surface then how about using your tablet, which most ppl carry with them anyways.

Please bro, the name of LED please
"Eneloop Pro Power Pack Charger Kit" is $73.99 at Costco Canada. Amazon.ca is out to lunch when it comes to prices. It is not uncommon to see Canadian prices twice or more than US prices.. Here is Costco link: https://goo.gl/AbckNQ
Great video tips…thanks for sharing….
Thanks Wes for the tips. They are really handy indeed. 🙂
I need LED lights in my life. ASAP

Wow, great job! I lol'd at the subscript 'LOL' after number two.
