There's nothing quite as frustrating as loosing photos and footage before it's been ingested. Always use name brand media and always duplicate it asap. Ask me how I know.

Oh no, whose wedding shoot did you lose? πŸ˜„

It was a cousin's wedding. Fortunately I had two cards, filled the first and the second one bit the dust. The ceremony survived but most of the reception pictures are lost. Not the worst case but they were not happy with me. Mem cards were a lot smaller back then.

Dual memory card camera. Copy after each shoot onto two different storage devices. (Eg laptop and external drive).

Would have been nice at the time, but unfortunately wasn't affordable yet.
