While sitting here and editing the pictures that I took at a wedding. I remembered that I am a horrible wedding photographer. No, it's not because of my shooting skills or artistic visions. It's that I'm too frickin emotional at weddings that I get teary eyes easily. That, of course, can't be good when I'm relying on my eyes to frame and focus the shots.
Too sensitive. That's my problem. The other day I was watching "Sisterhood of Traveling Pants" on cable, and I was sobbing throughout the movie. I've seen the movie before and I don't remember crying that bad. I think there's something wrong with me.
My point is, that I can never do weddings or emotional events. Gosh, I wonder if I could ever survive a funeral. I am now seriously doubting my ability to take a NILMDTS case. It would kill me for sure.
My strength will stay with bridal portraiture. I think that's the segment that I will explore and exploit.
