Priceless!! Bad wedding photographer

This is a class!!!! a bad wedding photographer, who is pulled up in front of a judge who is a keen photographer.

Totally clueless muppets, who don't even know how fast their lenses are

Re: Priceless!! Bad wedding photographer

ROFL - ok I found that very amusing

The 18 -55 and 70 - 300 were probably the standard kit lenses, I am suprised they didn't have more complaints!

Mind you though, a good camera still doesn't make a photographer professional

Re: Priceless!! Bad wedding photographer

She had me giggling totally, and utterly clueless. How can you charge some one that much, and not even know how fast your lens is????

I don't think she could of found anywhere cheaper, to print than Walmart

They should hire the judge, to retake the shots

I do agree you can have all the gear in the world, and it won't make you a good photographer or a Pro. But, you would think she would have been prepared for low light shooting.

Wouldn't you love to see the other photos, from the "hundred's" of wedding she has taken

Re: Priceless!! Bad wedding photographer

You have to feel for the bride though.
As someone who hasn't got the wedding photos I hoped for, I know how painful that is.

Re: Priceless!! Bad wedding photographer

Oh I do feel for the bride, I meant there's a lesson to be learned as a photographer - not to rush into these sorts of jobs without fully understanding what you're getting into!

I think there is a huge problem of someone getting a camera, and a lens or two, and thinking they got what it takes.

I'm not knocking anyone, for giving it a go, but they must be honest and upfront to the bride and groom.
