AWACS
Beware of AWACS! You may ask what are AWACS . . .the answer is "Amateurs With A Camera". In the right situation, AWACS are quite harmless(i.e. vacations,Christmas/Holiday parties,etc.), but if its your Wedding or Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or Family Heirloom Portrait an AWAC can be your worst nightmare. On such an important day, do you want to take a chance with an amatuer or inexperienced photographer, or would it be wiser to invest in a professional with years of experience under his/her belt? A Certified Professional Photographer has spent years honing his/her craft. Taking the time to attend seminars to keep abreast with a fast changing industry. To become certified by the Professional Photographers of America, a photographer must pass an extensive test, submit work for judging and have recommendations from his/her peers. Then after all this, they must renew this certification every five years. Only 3% of professional photographers are certified. Only 9 of these photographers are working in Nassau county. Liz & Joe are 2 of them!

Great Info!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is very interesting, I never thought about this, but I guess now I will before I book my photographer.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice meeting with you to discuss our wedding, thanks for all the valuable information you gave us - see you soon!
ReplyDeleteHow very true. Who would want 100's of out of focus, too light/too dark/too orange, sloppy photos, taken by well meaning friends and relatives, of their most important event? What a waste. You two are the most talented, professional, sincere and reliable photographers in the industry. It is a pleasure to view your beautifully composed photos, expressing the feelings, love and joy in people's lives. You bring the entire event alive with your talent and artistry. You're a class act all the way. I've admired your photographic skill for many years. It's always a pleasure to work with you, and I'm glad for the chance to finally express it. Keep up the good work.
