Does the photographer work with an assistant?
Is two always better than one? An assistant assists the photographer and is not necessarily a back-up photographer. Most studios will not likely use two well trained photographers to shoot the same wedding. As assistant is useful in helping the photographer to carry the equipment, load the camera, hold the lights, adjust the bride’s gown, etc. Many photographers can get by without an assistant, but they need to be well organized. Remember that you will have to pay extra for an assistant, and most likely for an extra meal as well.
