Are you fired up, ready to go, can’t wait to get on site and take the first shot. I hope so. Because if you are not, think about changing jobs – your giving the rest of us a bad name. Too many photographers approach a wedding as just a way to make a little extra money. I call it beer money. It’s that extra bit of cash in their pockets from a weekend job. Other photographers may complain, “Oh, I’ve got another darn wedding to shoot tomorrow.” If it’s a darn wedding, then why are they shooting it to begin with? Hey, we are back to that beer money mentality again.
“Folks, if we are not going to give our clients about 110% of our energies, effort, talent, and creativity all the time, then it is time for us to look for work elsewhere. Sure there are a lot of photographers that love what they do. They are constantly wanting to try different ideas and put a new twist or creativity into their shots. Man, we have to do just that every single wedding if we want to stay fresh for ourselves and give our clients our best result.”
