Good morning,
So yesterday a guy who works at my local photo lab asked me to be his wedding photographer, since he really likes my photography. (He process all of my prints) I was very surprised since I basically only do senior, maternity, and family portraits. I told him to contact me with details. I want to be very honest with him that this is my first wedding. I also want to charge him "cheap" because obviously I do not have any experience. I mean my camera is not even a "wedding" camera, since I see wedding photographers have $2,000 cameras.
My question is, do you guys think I should accept the offer?
I would have another photographer working with me but we both don't have fancy cameras. I have a D5100 and she has a T3i.
Also, what kind of equipment would you guys recommend?
I have a
35mm f/1.8
and kit lens
and 16gb and 8gb memory cards
reflector
(that is all, that's what I always use for my photo shoots.)
She has a 50mm f1.8
YN-468 flash (not sure of the model number)
kit lens
and reflector
I would really appreciate your opinions. And I understand that if I was to take this opportunity I would need to invest in equipment.
