Transparency
In the interest of transparency, here is a link to the response blog post published by Scott Bourne following yesterday’s exchange of ideas regarding discount wedding photographers.
I love Scott for his dedication to not only his craft but for giving so much back to the community. Plus his avian photography is without peer.
Scott was kind enough to post a detailed comment to yesterday’s post and I hold him in the highest respect for doing so.
(Can you tell I respect Scott? Good!)
Scott has valid points in both his comment and in his follow-up post. I wish we had a better forum in which to discuss the reality that most couples cannot afford to hire “the best” and that the gap between “the best” and “Uncle Jeff” or “$500 Phil’s Wedding Snaps” is closing thanks to technology.
Are discount solutions on par? Far from it and I hope I didn’t imply as such. “Good enough” is what every professional photographer must fear.
