Hey all, great thread. I run my own studio and have quite a bit of experience but I just love to second shoot. I love getting to do some really fun stuff and not having to get the 'safe' images! Give me a shout, i would love to help out.

several weddings as primary and some as second, but always willing to learn more
$25/hr with 4 hr minimum; $35/hr if shorter than 4 hours
Area: DFW, mainly Ft. Worth, but will take other assignments with expenses (gas) covered

Since I am currently without full time employment I willing to second shoot within the DFW with pretty minimal notice. I would prefer longer but if I am open I can shoot as second or third with just a couple days notice.

Been photographing weddings since 1979. Owned own studio in Lockhart Texas till 1996.
Lost my eyesight and had to close. Modern technology has given me my eyes back, along with digital photography!
I don't really want to be in the business of acquiring business, interviewing, etc, but would love to be a 2nd shooter! I've been back doing this since 2004, and have a few first shootings under my camera strap with digital.

No longer shooting weddings.

I'll go ahead and put my name in, too. I don't have that many available weekends, but if I'm free, I love to second shoot. I prefer a short notice because I don't like to book second shooting weddings too far out, in case I get one of my own.
