I think its a commercial photographer making fun of some1 else,
the way they listed the pro photographers positives and said "I will use the camera in fully automatic mode" sez it all.

I like in the list that pros have:
-experience
-people skills

And this person does not have any of the things the pro has. So this person has no people skills but yet she should be hired to take a wedding because she had photos of her dog.

that's not just funny, she is definitely digging non pros putting out shoddy work in a very humous way. Very clever and definitely let's people know (tongue n' cheek) how much expense, time and education the true photographer has that justifies charging what may seem high pricing "to take pictures". To me one of the hardest jobs would be a wedding photographer, too much pressure, weather is your enemy or friend and you never know which it will be, personalities, nerves, time, making snap decisions, whewwwww and to top it off, you only have one chance, no mulligans, no do overs, and at the end either one happy bride or ................. My hats off to all you wedding photographers and I say if you can accomplish all this and still want to do another, then cha..ching!

yea Ive been messing with this for going on 5 years collecting gear and learning and I'm only JUST getting to a point where I feel comfortable shooting a wedding but even then i would only do it with a second shooter. In either case if I shoot a wedding I'm not going to do it for less than 2000 dollars. which is why I will probably never shoot any. biggrin
