Wedding photographer not ....

Sometimes I can be so frustrated. Like today again.

The first talk with my wedding couple today, for the next week.

We arrange and prepared already a lot, and the bride didn’t know she go to get married this week. Her friend prepared everything and he just proposed here , when they arrived on Bonaire. Nice, very nice and such a good surprise for his girlfriend.

I have seen already so many wedding couples and I know exactly on what they must not cut their costs……. NOT ON THE PHOTOGRAPH PLEASE!

“ my brother can do it. “..”we have a friend and he have a great camera or even more than one….” Ok, ok, ok,…..

What do they think? A wedding photographer can be just anybody??

NO , really it’s a profession!! Not everybody can do this. You have to know to wordk with effect, with the sunlight , have fantasy, etc…. I’m not a photographer, and I can never be, Even I have seen it so much . It’s not my profession.

And also not yours!!! How many couples I have had, they did it them self. And after I see this terrible “family pictures”…. So terrible different than the work of a professional.

And I see their disappointed faces. And I see their thoughts….. I wish I knew…… I wish I did… I wish I had listen to my wedding planner…

But you had just once the chance to do it good…….

Today , I had it again, they don’t want a professional photographer. I wish they see what I see….. It’s so frustrated
