Subject: RE Tilted shots: was Re: peso - plane



We just had a discussion about this very thing over on ForumsNeurotica. 
SOmeone got called on crooked shots by a bride who wasn't very happy with 
her album.
It's like any other "style". In small doses it's OK, but an entire album 
of it would be a train wreck.


One thing I'd question is whether the bride looked at the photographer's 
previous work, and whether that work presaged what the album was going to 
look like.




Doesn't matter what the bride thinks, she isn't the person the photographer 
has to make happy.

When we were hiring a wedding photographer (in 2005) about 90% of the
online portfolios were tilty.  We hired a non-tilty one (paying extra
travel expenses, etc.) and thereby got non-tilty photos.
