The Wedding Photographer

[Kermitfm]

You don't have to be a photographer to be a wedding photographer.

5D Mark IV and L lens take care of everything.

Hey last good wedding dude I saw was carrying such a rig with a 35 L prime and a 50 L prime and made maybe 60 shots??? He had a good looking assistant too! She took maybe 10 shots!

Who is the winner in this saga ?

Solo outstanding photographer

Loser
1. Future couple as the rate of creditable photo will shot up

2. Bridal shop - need new strategy

3. New babies

Cannot swim means cannot swim.

Give you Schooling's underwear and his good looks, will still cannot swim one.

I agree with your wisdom.

A wedding photographer needs to know to swim as he may be tossed into deep sea by the bride. :bsmilie:

Okay give me the phone number.

Not the photographer but the good looking assistant.

some of the "orbit" photos can be improved by converting to b&w and photo editing, so all is not lost.

Good point sir. My dumb@ss got his number but not hers. :think: :bsmilie::bsmilie::bsmilie:

I suggest you write to the bride to suggest to do this for her $3,600.

agreed, not that pictures don't come out, it is only "Buay Swee", who is there and how to justify "Swee Buay Swee"?


anyway, one way to do it is to make it a law that all photographers must get a "licence" before they are allow to offer their services, but who will want to open this "can of worms"?

......Couples getting wedding photographers can bid for COE (certificate of engagement) for different categories of photogs ......GWC, Novice, Enthusiast, Advance Learner, etc.......

I'm certain I could teach her a trick or two...she could probably teach me five. :bsmilie:

Come on... these day and age... mirrorless is the answer - can't go wrong.

 

[zaren]

The photographer in question has already apologised and offered to buy kopi for the wedding couple. Time to move on.

 

[richiemccaw1]

Lets not propagate a blame culture.

yup. the best improvement here .. so actually its not the photographer fault ..

sion, where's the dancing aunties? can share again?

 

[Yutaka Go]

Does licensing photography service ever work? Who in his capacity can define what is better, good, best photo?

Example a chicken rice hawker with good picture on his signboard sell a tasteless chicken rice to you ... do u complain after you ate it and insist a refund? NO.

Its the buyer responsibility to do his homework before handing out the cash to the seller. And is the chicken rice hawker licensed ? YES.

In this case, the couple didn't choose their photographer. They bought a package including the photographer from a studio.

The studio can show them beautiful photos from a good wedding photographer but sent another photographer at the last minute. The couple cannot cancel or postpone their wedding because their favorite photographer cannot come to their wedding.

The cheaper the wedding package, the most likely this would happen :bsmilie:

 

[Yutaka Go]

Nailed that one on the head...buyer beware!

Moral of the story - look for the hawker with the longest line and who sells out before closing time.

Yeah. If this good photographer is fully book until 2020, the couple will have to postpone their wedding from 2016 to 2020 :bsmilie:
