Dwayne and Mel discuss a terrifying client who should be arrested. Once we are done talking about the serious and horrifying stuff, Dwayne becomes the terminator and we tell some stories such as when protective boyfriends call the police during your session, an incredibly disappointing family session, when an inquiry “gets gifted” their photography by someone else, and being sabotaged by angry guests at a wedding ceremony.

In today’s episode we teleport to Las Vegas (okay, we zoomed) to chat with powerhouse photographer Brian Friedman of B-Freed Photography. He talks about his experiences photographing celebrities, big name concerts, being an NYC elopement photographer, and that barely scratches the surface of his career! He also tells some really fun stories including bloopers of shooting concerts like getting smashed in the face, and having paparazzi-level moments. What’s it like to be backstage with Lady Gaga? Listen to find out!
We also discuss a wedding photographer being asked to pay for dry cleaning the wedding dress and how batteries dying during really important wedding moments really sucks!

We are joined by Nancy Arnold of Kiex Fotography where we talk about creativity, inspiration, and why we do this job.

We also tell some fun stories including finding out your groom has Covid on the wedding day so you leave the wedding early and are called out for being unprofessional, falling repeatedly at shoots, when posing prompts go wrong, stabbing yourself in the face while shooting a wedding, when your camera bag turns into a boat, and when someone steals your camera bag while you are shooting a destination wedding.

Dogs and disorganized wedding drama, an unexpected guest at a newborn session, a very angry mother of the groom and an absolute shit show wedding for the books. Also for some reason we talk about Mel’s first time having a baby, which is completely unrelated to photography or anything else for that matter.

This week we are joined by our very special guest, filmmaker and “sometimes photographer” Abdul Koroma.
Apologies for Mel’s audio as her microphone was on the fritz (she ordered a new one for next week). We discuss a lot of funny things that happen behind the scenes in videography!
So many stories this week! Including: an allergic reaction that brings a shoot to a standstill and leaves the models in a predicament, a gastrointestinal emergency at a reception, wedding party fight on a trolley, why you really should use a strap for your camera, and an open bar reception in a house.

This episode is a deep dive into oblivion. Mel and Dwayne both had several beers and let the truth bombs fly while they discuss stories such as awful second shooters, a big surprise at a model portfolio shoot, both of your memory cards failing after a wedding, and being promoted from second to main shooter at a wedding only to be driven around in a car that requires a breathalyzer to start.
