3. Do you shoot in both color and black-and-white?
How to Answer
This question is particularly pertinent if you are shooting in film, though you might also receive requests for your digital shots to include some black-and-white post-editing as well. When shooting in film, consider the logistics required to shoot in both color and black-and-white, especially if you do not have additional photographers or assistants supporting you on the event day.

Answer Example
"When I'm shooting in film, I love to offer the couple a chance to view their big day in both color and black-and-white. My ability to provide both can depend on the couple's overall desires for their photos. If they are interested in digital and film, then I might suggest post-editing digital photos to black-and-white or inform them that, in my team of 3, we would each have a different camera with different photo outcomes. Ultimately, I look to my clients for what they would most like to see in their wedding album, and I use my expertise to steer them as close to that vision as possible."
