Why We Switched to Nikon

[pixmedic]

The few surviving full-time wedding shooters I know are too busy marketing and actually working to embarrass themselves writing self-regarding spew like this. Two out of three seem to shoot Canon, too. Doubt this will cost them much sleep.

There are also lots shooting film for weddings and I know one who is earning more money by going back to film

There are also lots of photographers ditching still shots all together and making more money shooting video.

I would never have or pay for a video of my wedding

I would never pay for film.
I guess there's something for everyone.
Funny how that works

Would be curious to see "lots" quantified since labs in my area have thinned to the point of near invisibility. Wedding shooters once kept them afloat when film ruled and the labs died when they switched to digital. That happened quite a few years ago.

doubtful.
the new pentax MF or a hassy with a digiback will do this easily.
medium format digital cameras do just as well.
even better when you consider the better recovery options.
Technology is amazing.

Jose Villa and Sam Blake are two well known film wedding photographers. They're not cheap.

From what I've read, Jose Villa's fee starts at $15k and he's in very high demand. I don't know about Sam Blake though.

I myself is transitioning to be a hybrid shooter. There are a lot of pros and cons between digital and film, but highlights retention and skin tone are the main factors why I want to include film in what I do. I love Kodak Portra series when I was in school. Digital is amazing at shadow recover and is great for the reception portion of my work.

Maybe, maybe not.
We're those shot with 35mm film?
I have seen wedding photographers get 10k for weddings shot on MF digital. Phase one, hassy digiback, Leica...
You don't have to shoot film to get that kind of money.
