I just read an article on Seattle Bride magazine’s website about how one of their writers shot along side a pro at a wedding. She is also a bride planning her wedding and after spending the day photographing has a new found respect for professional wedding photographers. She has had some experience photographing for the magazine but not a full time wedding photographer.
I think sometimes many think that if you have a nice camera that you are a professional photographer. This is not true! We spend countless hours with our equipment and computers learning everything we possibly can until they almost become part of us. It becomes second nature to set shutter speeds, apertures, lights, and lenses. Aside from that it is also the details of what is going on and capturing them in a moments notice. Our investment is high as well, anyone that calls it a hobby knows that it is an expensive one. It’s not just the camera but all the accessories that are needed to get the shot!
It is a great aricle and you can find it here:
