Maybe it's just me, but I don't think I could make it through 1- 1,500 photo
proofs. Gosh, that's a lot. I think Paul's got the right idea: 600 and
get it down to 400. Cheers, Christine

Subject: Too many wedding photos (was Marc Smith...)
Dave,
1,000-1,200 photos is a lot. How many do you post?
I went to a wedding and shot some pix.
I showed some of them here -
http://picasaweb.google.com/rf.sullivan/DianaEricWeddingPhotos#
Now my daughter has a link to the photographer's web site.
They have posted 1,000+ photos from the wedding.
42 pages of 25 thumbnails each, linking to larger photos.
This is positively overwhelming. You've gotta show less!
What's the practice out there these days?
Regards, Bob S.

Since every one else beat me to the boob jokes, I'll comment in the

I like it, would prefer to have the mike more away from the face, but
thats a minor nit.
Don't feel to bad Christine. I often shoot 1000-1200 a weekend and
sell maybe 10 of those.

Well, what a f***ing, bl**dy miserable night of photography I just had.
I
shot 79 frames--I say again, I shot 79 frames--and I only got this one
shot
to show for it. Ugh! I fought with focus all night: I couldn't even
get
the stone titties on the Greek statue to come out sharp. Couldn't get
any
interesting expressions. And it was a great night of poetry--lots of
animated performance poets. Nothing went as planned:
1) I wanted to get some nice shots of the famous Green Mill interior for
the
our good PDML folks in and from Chicago--you know, a neighborly gesture.
Well, I've come up empty handed.
2) I wanted a good shot or two of two poets from Australia reading to
night--you know, a kind of international neighborly gesture. Well, I've
come up empty handed.
3) I wanted to show off my sister reading her poetry tonight--you know,
a
kind of sibling promotional gesture. Well, I've come up empty handed.
I think I'm glad I have a day job.
Anyway: This is Marc Smith, father of performance and slam poetry. He's
a
really nice guy and lots of fun to watch and listen to.
K20D, long DA* lens, 90mm, ISO 1600, 1/13 @ 2.8.

comments welcome, especially of the consoling kind

(Sorry for the vent! But I think I do feel a bit better now :-))
