Dear Devlin. I want to change my editing style but how do I do this when currently booked couples booked me on my older style? Do I stick to old edit for them, throw caution to the wind and edit in new style or during sneak peeks offer both and let them pick which one...
Dear Devlin. WWYD? I’ve recently taken a booking for a date later this year at a venue that’s OK but not my ideal. It’s such a weird year though, I just wanted to fill the date. Now another couple has come forward for the exact date and their wedding...
