It doesn’t. It shouldn’t be hanging out of windows or dangling from big chandeliers in the middle of staircases. In fact, the place your wedding dress really belongs is somewhere damn close to where you’ll put it on – probably your hotel room. Why? Because that’s the only place it makes any sense for it to be.
There’s a lot of advice out there about choosing vendors. And in my opinion, much of it creates extra work for folks getting married that’s really unnecessary. For instance, some websites (I’m looking at you, The Knot) have enormous lists of questions to ask photographers: What gear do you use? What do you wear to the weddings? Do you require a meal? The truth is, the answers to most of these questions are totally irrelevant to the point of the inquisition: is this the right photographer for you? So I’ve put together this guide to help couples figure out if their photographer is the right one for them. I’m assuming here that we’re getting down to photographers in your budget.
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.
