...and that's what it's really about, isn't it? Like, approve, enjoy, endure it or not, they've done something right on some level, I haven't heard anyone talking about the photographic art hung in 'The Block'

I did find the lens element tatt to be an uplifting behind the scenes peak at how one immortalises his favourite lens. Maybe I'll ger one of my TSE lens on my backside. It might just work: if some wag goes to kick my rear end, the tatt will remind him//her to do it gently lest the glass breaks...

I believe that wedding photographers are probably (behind war zone press folk) the most courageous of the whole craft and business.
There have been a few pieces posted here and there on the 'net about the unreal expectations of the wedding couple, the attempts by relatives to steal prints one way or the other, the lack of any consideration of the photographer and his/her assistant (one photographer, when not offered any sustenance of any kind but being expected to not leave the scene, sent out for pizza delivery)
Not to mention gear failure, the difficulty of tactfully getting Uncle Arthur and Aunt Flo to get out of the bloody way when the bridal pair are posing for their after wedding formal portrait, hassling with the vicar about where the photographer can set up and maybe using flash...
Once more: I'd like to see that.

Tell me about it! I'm on the tail end of finishing up some post work from a recent wedding, it just reminds my why I'm very selective about which jobs I take! I'm lucky that it's not my bread & butter, a couple photographers I work with semi-regularly have been career wedding/portrait photographers, does NOT sound like my cup of tea, especially not now that the market is flooded with people like Wotalegend's friend!
...I've just culled a whole bunch of shots because 'Aunt Flo's' enormous Sto-Fen is protruding into the wide andle field of view... I swear the cow was using my shoulder to rest her camera on sometimes... and as for my poor 2nd shooter, he brought back a decent number of pics of the back of her head, because she spent most of the ceremony muscling him out of the way!

I've only seen a couple half episodes of my kitchen rules, but from what I picked up, I reckon My Darkroom Rules would actually be a fun series to watch!
