- AMEN, Jonas. I am so tired of submitting widnedgs to blogs and magazines in order to get our name out to other photographers and the masses only to be told over and over really we love your work so don’t stop submitting, but this one doesn’t fit our focus or is lacking in the certain type of details we’re looking for !!!! We shoot for feelings. We shoot for emotions. We don’t shoot staged engagements of Alice in Wonderland, or Little Red Riding Hood, or some other such nonsense which have both been featured on several blogs! The regular widnedgs, gorgeous in their own right, just don’t get a whiff of attention. It’s like high school all over again. A select few great photographers, cause their work is great, are who get on the top five blogs over and over again. The rest of us, get on some of the lesser known ones and are greatful for that, but it can be very frustrating and makes you feel like you stink at what you do no matter how many great reviews, letters, comments and emails you receive. I’d love it if for once if the playing field was leveled and the regular widnedgs which are occurring all over the country could get a shot at being featured. But the reality is, just like in mainstream magazines, no one wants the regular wedding to feature because it doesn’t draw the readership. People want to see what they don’t have. The majority of brides are not DIYing up a storm as evidenced by the above yet they get all the coverage.
