    Our photographer and second shooter will be with us for 10 hours and our videographers (2) we have for 9 hours.


    Jessica -I am still figuring out times, we are planning to do a first look and most of our pictures before the ceremony starting at 2. Our ceremony we are gonna start at 4 & cocktail hour at 5. Right now I am thinking of having the photographers come at 11:30-12 and my videographer coming at 12. We are doing a mock cutting of our cake and our videographer not sure about photographer we don't need to the end to tape drunk people.

    I have family doing wedding. A professional coming in to do 3 hours of candid shots on dance floor so family can take a break and enjoy reception.

    In technical terms A photojournalist is someone who photographs, edits, and displays images in order to tell a visual story. They are journalistic professionals that are skilled at interpreting and communicating an event through a photograph(s). But they are our second shooter

    We're not doing getting ready pictures and don't see a reason to keep the photographer to the end of the reception. ("Ah, more drunken dancing pictures!) So, five hours, not sure if we'll add a second shooter. Probably not.
