To octarine : thanks!! it's really encouraging to hear that!! Haha. Actually I am only using d3000 with 35mm for the wedding shoots!! Hoping to get a better dslr soon!!
stick to the current cam and lens. i've seen your facebook pics, not bad for a start. here's some point to note;
- use a bounce card instead of diffuser
- watchout on the over-exposure as such wedding is often held @ void deck/multi-purpose hall, set your EV to -1/3
- turn off the flash when shooting under direct sunlight
- try not to crop group shots tightly
- prioritize on the couple facial and frontal shots,meaning you have to stand in the middle of the dais (since you are going to be the main photographer)
- use smaller aperture in group shots (f9 and above)
- communicate to the couple loudly, i don't mean shouting but tell them(and others behind them) to look into your camera prior to pressing that shutter
- patience and anticipation works parallel; you don't shoot a couple in wedding with another photographer behind them. if you have to wait for the other guy to move away after his shot, so be it. again communication plays a pivot role here. or put your finger on standby when that guy is just about to move, shoot when you are ready
- a smile exudes happiness, joy, gratefulness to such blissful moments. ask the couple (and family/friends behind them) to smile (",)
- since you are using prime,move forward/backwards to get the composition that you wanted
- post processing; straighten/crop/adjust whatever necessary after the shooting
as for the fee,you might want to check the Photo Biz section as what others have mentioned before. all the best in your future works
hope this helps
