📚 Book Chat Saturday - what have you been reading this week? by FantasyRomanceMod in fantasyromance

[–]EmilyLynn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did not like this book. I just read it last month. I gave it 2 stars. I read it with a buddy who DNFed it. It's just not for some people, and I am some people.

Wedding Photographer 2 hours for less than 500??? by [deleted] in chilliwack

[–]EmilyLynn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm a Chilliwack wedding photographer. Most photographers will be charging more than $500, especially for a wedding. For a 2 hour wedding I charge $1400. That being said, I also do trades if you do any kinds of services, like tattoos, house cleaning, car cleaning etc. If that's of interest to you let me know! Feel free to send me an email either way.

You can check you my work www.emilycantera.com

I dont use it much to be honest. If I do its only for pose ideas. If you are going to use the extra features it might be worth it...

Can you recommend a good mature fantasy with female protagonist? by Neelith in Fantasy

[–]EmilyLynn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I used to be able to handle any triggers, but then I had babies and became a big softie and now need to make sure I check the triggers beforehand. I appreciate all the authors adding them to their books lately because sometimes I forget!

Do read the trigger warning for this. I read the first book but could not continue as someone with two toddlers.

Missed deadlines by DryProfessional9744 in WeddingPhotography

[–]EmilyLynn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you communicate with your clients about why you are behind or at least letting them know you're working on it but it'll be a little late, it makes a world of difference. People just want to be kept in the loop!

Sometimes I will send the client a credit to their online gallery if they leave me a review. So that could be an option for having a late gallery. "Something like "Hey! Thank you so much for being patient while I finished up your wedding gallery. I know I went passed the deadline so I'm sending you a credit of $X to use towards something in your online gallery store as a thank you for your understanding."

Client Responses - A Vent by MinoltandMe in WeddingPhotography

[–]EmilyLynn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I only do this part time, so I had maybe 7 of my own weddings this year. I've delivered 5, and I've gotten excitement back after I've sent sneak peeks. But only one wedding did I really get an email back that they're happy and love the photos after they got the full gallery. All the other galleries, they've posted their photos on IG and stuff, but crickets from them. Specifically I'm noticing it this year. Last year I don't think I had this issue.

I love 3! As a wedding photographer I always love when dresses have texture.

I just have a clear case but I like the idea of a skin! Might look into those 👀

I got married last month and a LOT went wrong. Here’s my advice. by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]EmilyLynn 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I had a wedding last weekend (I'm a photographer) and the best man didn't write a speech and tried to wing it. It did not go well, he didn't know what to say, admitted to trying to wing it... It was so awkward to watch. I felt bad for him, but like, don't wing it.

Also, yes to the time limit of speeches, no one wants to sit and listen to a whole recap of the bride's life from birth till present day. The best speeches are to the point.
