This is a great question with a... complicated answer. Sometimes it can be best to talk all about that on the phone (you can schedule a time to do that on my contact page) but, what I can say is for your standard wedding, at a wedding venue, with mostly traditional things happening you'll need 6-8 hours of photography coverage. If you're doing things to the beat of your own drum, or having a more low key celebration, you can look at 3-5 hours of coverage to see if it works for you. Hours of coverage are continuous from the start to end, and second photographer hours need to overlap with the hours that I am photographing your party.
