Even though, for me shooting weddings is a passion..not a paycheck, we all need motivation from time to time. Sometimes its that constant rain for an outdoor wedding, or that overhead fluorescent lighting on the dance floor. Regardless, Exposed: Confessions of a Wedding Photographer by Claire Lewis is the perfect medicine.
The recipe for Claire's home brew is quite simple - sprinkle some personal metaphors and true stories of success and failure, add factual stories of clients and weddings that were either wonderful or scary and disastrous. Take this mixture and stir vigorously with a smooth, personal, intimate writing style.
After reading this wonderfully written, dynamic piece I found a renewed sense of passion for my own endeavors as a wedding photographer. I was able to take the chips in stride and embrace the wonderful clients I have come to know.
My only concern is when, exactly, the medicine will wear off...
