New iPhones are new. Cliques in the industry or horrible friends that don't celebrate your successes. How do photographers handle extreme weather like hurricanes?

This week we're talking about the Canon EOS R, the new Canon R-mount lenses, and the Fuji XT-3. It's a gear heavy week and Steve hates it. We also talk about a videographer who asked a photographer for over 400 photos to help complete their wedding video.

How do we handle edit requests? Is it weird to pay someone in advance of their service on the wedding day? Your Instagram might be hacked. Stop turning your greens into browns in Lightroom. It looks like crap. There's a 150 megapixel medium format camera that was released. Canon's releasing two new mirrorless cameras this week that'll be full frame. Nikon apologizes because they can't keep up with demand for the Nikon Z7.

Steve's drinking a Flat 12 Pogue's Run Porter, again. Dustin's not drinking, again... But apparently he had a lot of vodka cranberries right before we recorded. Dustin tells a story about smoke bombs. Then we talk about a dilemma with the Knot. After that we transition into the Drone Zone to talk about the new DJI Mavic 2 Pro and DJI Mavic 2 Zoom. One of us has already pre-ordered the Pro. Then we talk about the new Nikon Z6 and Z7. A lot of photographers seem to be upset about it because it doesn't live up to their expectations, so Steve lays out a plan to fix the Nikon Z7. It all applicable to the Nikon Z6 too. Then we briefly mention the Carl Zeiss fixed lens camera that was teased on the same day that DJI and Nikon announced their big news. After that we talk about the idea of a wedding tax because of a post we read on Reddit

In the last episode of the podcast Dustin spent a very long time complaining about the drone footage from a recent wedding he shot. He complained a lot about the visuals from the drone. That unfortunately doesn't translate very well to an audio podcast. So, we've gone ahead and decided to upload the footage from the drone. It's only a little over 2 minutes long. It's not a good representation of Dustin's work or his brand/style. Open this blog post to see the video…

Season 2 of WPH kicks off with a bang! We're talking about what's new. We're talking about what we're getting rid of in this season. There could be a murder! There could be a wedding... Well, there will probably be lots of weddings.

To celebrate the podcast being 1 year old today. Here's a supercut of all of the stingers from Season 1. This is the audio that plays after the closing music. The part that most people skip... So don't worry if you decide to skip this. It's okay.

Diamond Ethics - CZ. Dustin shot an engagement ring with a macro lens and saw etched into the "diamond" a CZ. Should he tell the bride? Should he tell the bride's parents? Should he tell the groom? What should he do?

This is one of our most reference heavy episodes to date, so hold on to your butts. Dustin used the power of his negative energy to ruin Steve's weekend. That's right, Dustin's bad karma rubbed off on Steve causing Steve to have to shoot a wedding. You wouldn't have thought it was possible, but apparently it was.

We made the switch from SoundCloud to Anchor. So, if you’ve been a loyal Soundcloud listener that’s a little bad news. Next up Dustin updates people on the stolen photo situation with real talk about what his lawyer is asking for from the culprit. Then we’re talking beer. Steve’s on that Scarlet Lane Dorian Stout. Dustin is drinking water, which he refers to as dihydrogen oxide. He’s probably going to die soon if he’s drinking that.

We start talking about the joy of having a week off and going on vacation, then do some follow up on some of the kickstarter stuff Dustin has "bought." Steve's drinking an Olga from Scarlet Lane while Dustin's drinking a Michelob Ultra Lime and Cactus.

It's our 50th Episode! This week Steve's drinking a Bourbon Barrel Aged Eirik Bloodaxe from Scarlet Lane and we're talking photo stuff. We answer the question what is a dollar dance? We talk about letting an intern edit your photos. We talk about the Kickstarter for Magbox (one of us bought/invested/threw money away at this). We talk about the court case that ruled that a photo wasn't protected by copyright because it was a factual depiction.

The case of the crazy edits, the flat tire on the way to a wedding, what to do at the same venue, take two, and thoughts on IGTV one week in. It's a strong way to start the show. Steve's drinking a Vane from Scarlet Lane. Then we're on to the show! Steve's angry that some people told a photographer to lie to her clients when a card corrupted and she lost photos. What parts of the wedding day do we feel like it's pointless to capture. Do we do father/daughter reveals?
