    Another great tip. Nicely delivered, as seems to be a theme in your videos. Excellent productions. I do apologise for asking a question from a negative angle, but in your example you make reference to the fact that you approached a venue where you actually got married some weeks earlier. So I'm guessing you knew them, they knew you, and probably already had a mutual liking. I got married 20 years ago. And the last two weddings I shot were friend and family gigs abroad (destination weddings) in 2016 and 2018. So in my case, literally, it would be a case of finding local venues near me that shoot weddings and cold calling them (or e-mailing, or visiting) them saying "Hi, how can I help your business....etc" and as you allude, they're going to see right through it and ignore me. So I need to think of a way of doing as you suggest, making it seem authentic, but from the angle of a total stranger.

      We actually worked with a completely different coordinator who left a month after our wedding so we were contacting people we had never met or worked with before. I understand the hesitation and your question, but coming to them and asking them how you can serve them rather than asking them to do something for you.

    Nice video. Informative and succinct at the same time. I forwarded it to a friend who works in a related industry.

      🤣🤣🤣 - He chills out hard and shuts up when you scratch his back legs. It's the only way to get him to calm down.
