| I like how he says that, as opposed to himself, the pros have people skills. |

Reminds me of some of the terrible auditions on American Idol: "All my friends and family say my singing is awesome!" |

I cant believe some of you think this may be genuine - yes it is a joke by a pro but it sums it all up pretty nicely.
Then again, we all have to start somewhere, it was only a couple of years ago I was shooting weddings for free/cost - I think it would be arrogant of me to knock the newbies too much. Lets face it, not all B&Gs have lots of money to spend, so cheap budget photographers will always be in demand, as will mid-range and expensive ones. |

For some reason I'm imagining a pitchman commercial by Vince Shlomi about this photographer and his service.
That would be hilarious! |

Who would advertise they have no License and don't plan on paying taxes. |

| Couldn't help it...forwarded it to two different friends who are getting married. They immediately took it as a joke. |

Yes, got to be. 'I own a camera therefore I can take photos like the pros, who charge alot more.' That has to be a dig. A joke but a very funny one! |

| It almost sounds tongue in cheek...but you never know - all I can say to those to take the bait - you get what you pay for. For someone who has no professional experience will find out what a headache it is when it doesn't come out right and heartache for those foolish enough to hire someone for a lifetime event that cannot be 'repeated' or reshot. |

this is the best part:
Pros have:
-a business license
- multiple cameras
-thousands of dollars in lenses and flashes
-hard drives to back up the images
-insurance
-experience
-people skills
-color calibrated monitors
-professional print labs
-professional albums
I have none of this stuff so we'll keep it cheap, just for you!

I have to admit it took me a second or so to realize this guy was either really upset, was frustrated or just had some fun. Luckily I had no cup of coffee in my hand ... could have been a serious sccident :)
Thought I share the faun with you
