There's only so much a photographer can do

Photographers have rules: "I won't do weddings if they insist on all couple shots after the ceremony," or "I get paid 50% in advance and 50% on the wedding day because too many deadbeats never pay up."

No problem. What we cannot control is how our clients look. If I had pursued a professional photography career I think I would have instituted a "good looking" discount. The beautiful are so much easier to work with that they deserve a discount. I can remember one couple that I did at least 200 engagement photos and ended up with 3 that didn't make me cringe.

If you want to see photos that will make you sorry for the photographer that had to take them go here.
