The first round of rejects can be seen here. Now I’m showing you even more project rejects, but it’s the last set before the big reveal (are you excited yet!?) These images come from a workshop I took in July with Spencer Lum. It was gruelling and exciting and I’m proud of the work I produced. Hope you like this second set of losers. You can skip ahead to the full set of finalized projects if you like, or you could be held in suspense a while longer.
Well, it’s officially a trend with me. Someone pisses me off, and I come online to tell everybody how I feel. Today’s targets are newbie photographers who complain that their work isn’t good because they’re not photographing “wealthy” clients, dropping lots of coin on their weddings. And that, my friends, is ridiculous.
Back in July, I had the opportunity to take part in Spencer Lum’s “I Will Make You Suffer” photography workshop. I really had no idea what it was going in. Spencer is one of my favorite writers in the wedding industry, so when he announced the workshop, I signed up without reading any of the fine print. Turns out I had agreed to a four-day personal project intensive. And intense is exactly what it was: four brutal days of constant shooting, with two critiques each day. That means TWICE a day, you had to bring in new material to be torn apart.
