    I stumbled upon your channel to learn more about wedding photography, and I’m really enjoying your storytelling! I'm already married, but I’m tempted to have a second celebration just for the chance to have you as our photographer haha

    I have this evening just stumbled on your videos. You are a breath of fresh air and your narrative is crystal, clinical and so understandable. I also love the crispness and cleanliness of your photography. Many thanks I am now an avid follower, so keep them coming.

    Great video bro, agreed with everything, something extra that i like to do is, just tell the couple that you need "to tweak your camera settings" for a moment, that makes the couple to forget about you, as you pretend to "tweak your camera", then they ALWAYS start to talk, make jokes each other, to touch and kiss, and that makes the most beautiful photos that you can take, simple trick, and always works!😍📸👰🤵‍♂

    I just took my first wedding this past weekend. Looking back, I could have directed more - and I guess that's what comes with experience. The bride had her ideas and her close friend had the list of important shots they wanted which was good and helped a lot. But like you said, I could have made my suggestions as well, direct people on where to place their hands, etc. If you have more information in that regard, that would be super helpful! Love the channel and your tips. Keep rockin! 🤟😄🤟

    Luke, thank you so much. Before every session, I cram in a dozen videos to try and make sure my photos will be okay. Yours is one of the only ones that has made me feel confident and so much better after watching. Your last point is perfect. Enjoying the actual process of taking the photos, and just having fun and remembering this is something I love to do is what I think I’ve been missing all along. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this video with us.
