yeah the pic is totally random...and in no way goes with this post..... today ...... we actually had to turn down a wedding!!!!
we were recommended by a friend to someone who had a bit of a falling out with their photographer....3 months from the wedding date! So as you can imagine...the bride was stressed and scrambling to find someone.....well...when she contacted us we were really excited...1 for getting the opportunity to shoot another wedding and 2...we got recommended..word is getting out !!!
well we had her fill out our short questionnaire so we could figure out how to price things and there it was....she was having her wedding in front of the shark tank in the aquarium!!! awesome Idea...bad lighting....really bad lighting! back light from the shark pool..no flash allowed...man ..just wow....not saying it couldn't be done because it can...and Im sure we would have done a great job..but at this point in our young careers we had to say you know what...lets refer her to a friend of ours and let them take this one...
Why?....well see she was going to needs external lighting source that was not flash...and not only is that expensive stuff...the aquarium would need to approve of having it there...and...the lenses needed to shoot that...oh wow...those things cost more than a used car....see we are but humble photographers who try to keep our prices under 1k...we do small weddings for people who cant afford to rent out the palace lol....the lens she would have required cost more than what we charge for like 5 weddings LOL...so we sent her to someone who already had the needed equipment.....really sad to do that...I love shoot...especially new environments and original ideas however...i know that right now this one is just out of our league...lighting wise...unless a loyal reader out there wants to donate a couple thousand to some up and coming local photographers / artists... :-) hey it could happen! Lol.
So yeah thats the big news...we said no..even when we didn't want to lol. so I hope you enjoy the blog today...sunday is getting closer and closer..cant wait for this wedding shoot..and to post the pics...OOOOOOOyeah! alright people...thanks for reading!
Later
