<p>Jasmine Star is truly inspirational. The best part is she's only been doing this for about 3 years. She's a newbie : ) Even MORE inspirational!</p>

<p>Then I would say Jasmine Star, Noa Azoulay-Sclater (Featherlove Photography), & Jennifer Skog are my faves.</p>

<p>LOL....Joxter, you certainly know how to stir the pot! Stick around!</p>

<p>Vogue, W...European fashion mags....good stuff abounds.</p>

<p>Well, it hasn't been accepted yet. But, here's hoping!</p>

<p>One of the planners from a wedding I did wants to submit the wedding to be a "featured wedding" in one of the national bridal magazines.<br>

Has anyone done this before? Do I need any kind of release form for the pictures? Can the magazine, after recieving them, do what they want with them?<br>

This is uncharted territory for me.</p>

<p>I have a feeling Joxter's head may be spinning at this point.</p>

<p>Hmmm, that's interesting. I never knew that. Heck, learn something new everyday!</p>

<p>I've never shot a Canon, so excuse my dumb question: but what does a Canon do on AP that messes it up? This intrigues m.....</p>

<p>I wouldn't tweak it TOO much in PS...some of the tweaks have left the B&G looking either too "muddled" (if that makes sense) or even too blue. I like Francie's tweak the best.</p>

<p>Paul-<br>

You forgot Lens cap off...turn camera on.<br>

; )</p>

<p>I have a sneaking suspicion, this may just be me being a bit jaded, but I think "Joxter" may be pulling our leg a bit.</p>

 

<p>Manual or I am a big fan of Aperture Priority, depending on the situation.</p>

<p>This picture was beautifully executed. Looks like a Sandals beach vacation ad. I have no criticisms, love it.</p>

<p>Nope, serious as an MJ heart-attack (too soon?)<br>

TRA Actions are great, a good way to add an extra, modern punch to your work.</p>

<p>Are you allowed to use flash?<br>

If so, I wouldn't count out the zoom all together. I've shot a ton of Catholic events, and I find being able to stay as far back as I possibly can without getting major blur or camera shake is a good thing. You can't rely on primes completely because if you want a close up of anything you're going to be all up in the priest's face. I've never done a Catholic wedding or event where they allowed me on the altar (pretty standard) or allowed me to use flash, so I would find out what your "allowances" are and go from there.</p>

<p>Natalie,<br>

Pioneer Woman also makes some free actions that do many of the same effects. You can download them from her site. They are amazing for being free.</p>

 

<p>Looks like Totally Rad Actions Old School to me, with a Oh, Snap thrown in for good measure.</p>

<p>Neil, I just checked out your site for the first time (your little blurb on your style drove me to it). Your wedding work is absolutely stunning. Very editorial, I love it!</p>

At this point I deleted everything I have one here that is identifying, so I may be happy with that. It really has nothing to do with your email Mary, I know you're just doing your job.

<p>I have a typical account, but I'd like to have my account cancelled and pictures, etc. removed from my profile but I do not see anwhere to do this.</p>

I call this one "Using Uncle Joe"<br>

Nikon D300, f/5.0, ISO 3200</p>

<p>Chris, you are right...even with travel costs it would still be a HUGE savings. I would just broach the subject with him lightly "Hey, considering I'm traveling to Montana to work for you, how do you feel about fronting the cost?"<br>

Good luck!</p>

<p>I agree with Missy...take this time to reevaluate your business and improve creatively and in what you offer to clients. It has nothing to do with oversaturation, those who have the goods will survive. Look at it as a challenge to set yourself apart in a tough economy.</p>

<p>Wow, I don't have any legal advice for you as I am not a lawyer, but from a photog standpoint this is terrible. I would never dream of being so rude to a client.<br>

I urge you to stand your ground, be the squeeky wheel, and make sure you leave reviews for this photog in the important places expressing your distaste. Other brides need to be aware.</p>
