I am a pro photographer

[zetson]

I am a pro photographer,
because I have a camera.

Everytime I see good equipement reviews,
I buy it so that it will make me even better.

When I'm taking pictures for clients,
they see I'm a pro since I have a large lens,
and the battery grip makes me even more pro.

I never take snapshots,
because I use a 70-200mm f/2.8,
on a full-frame body.

If a client don't like her portraits,
it's her fault.
She didn't use proper make-up.

I edit my photos on a Mac,
and use selective coloring.
That's why all my photos are art.

I set my camera to full auto,
since as a busy pro photographer,
I haven't time to care about details.

I can't learn from my errors,
because there aren't any.

I don't have to read about techniques.
My camera takes care of that.

So, why, WHY is my business going so bad?

I noticed you are not using a 70-200 f2.8 II. Only the original version.

Rookie. Step up your game.

lol

This is a good reminder to me that being a great photog isn't all about the equipment but about the nut behind the equipment. Thanks. :-)

Do you mind if I post this on my blog (with due credit)?

Yes, unfortunately. The fundamentals seem to vanish in the digital world. I think there's a discussion about this in a recent thread in this forum section.

Not at all. Go ahead. I'm just glad this is appreciated

Good one!!!!
As my old Dad often said...it's not the tools it's the man holding them. He was talking about carpenters, but still apropos

I'm embarrased to say I used to think that way. I used to think that my photos were crap because I had a pink point and shoot camera. I thought the only way they would be good is if I got an SLR camera (which I did.... But its not about the camera you have. Its what you think up and the way you can make a picture look good in your own way. Sure its nice if you have a nice camera and good equipment. I'm very happy with my Nikon D5000. But if you can't make a good picture... then why are you doing this?

haha yup. I'm done talking now
