p.1 #1 · Wedding photography sucks!


came across this blog posting from a user on another site I visit....

http://blog.dkwan.com/2007/09/27/wedding-photography-sucks/

so nice of him to make things easier for everyone else.

if anyone is wondering what's going on in that picture, it's our blogger being scolded by the priest in the middle of the ceremony.

some people.... sheesh

So basically...he's too big of a jerk to be a wedding photographer.

That's about all I got from that.

Priceless! From the entry:

I hate sharing a table with morons who at anytime could spill something on my equipment. Or start talking to me.

Sounds like a real "people person" to me.

But he reveals his real ire here:

Wedding photographers’ blogs also annoy me, especially when they’re just sales pitches, or sound like sales pitches. Or if they’re just too happy in general. Or when the photos look the same. Or when they make ten times more money than me.

BWAHAHAHA!!!

well, at least he knows he's not good for the business. I just started doing it on the side, and i think it's a lot of fun.

Yeah, I was going to say "so nice of him to dress appropriately for the occasion." Black t-shirt at a white wedding, in a chapel. Very professional, very classy. Do you think that he is attempting to convey his disdain for the whole job and angst that he was forced at gunpoint to shoot the wedding?

"Look, I don’t even like to take photos of people smiling at the camera. They look so fake to me, even when people are genuinely happy."
Laughing so hard right now!!!! Slowly... step away... from the camera.

"And some people are seriously rude and/or inconsiderate at weddings."
Uh, look in the mirror buddy!

Thanks for a good laugh this morning!!!

Wait a minute ... not so harsh on this guy ... he's an artist ... and as we all know artists are misunderstood .... we should shadow him and learn from his greatness ... then point him in the direction of the nearest men's clothing store ....

The Wedding Biz won't miss this guy .... imagine the audacity of anyone who would smile on their wedding day .... what nerve

He must've had the ass end of the wedding spectrum. At no time have I ever experienced what he's talking about.

If everyone nixed a particular job because some people are bungholes, this world would collapse.

I know the feeling of getting told off by the priest.

On one occasion I got a little carried away shooting quickly during the ceremony with my Canon 1DMkIIN and didn't realise (as I'm used to it) how loud the mirror slap and shutter noise was and how distracting it was for the priest.

After being sternly told to stop making so much noise I switched instead to my Canon 10D, which is much quieter. Lesson learned.

I wonder what the reason was for this guy getting scolded?

Ever do a wedding in a town full of tactless folk who are upset about their kids getting married cuz the brightest gem in their family got knocked up?

But anyway, it's not because of one particular bunghole. I don't know how it is in Canada, but in the United States, we've got about 300 million bungholes.

bungholes.



Not really - easy cure for that one is a quick termination. Better a couple of minutes at a clinic than a lifetime of bitterness, regret and backhanders at the hand of a spoogemaster.
