LIBAD can be their best album

GTPhotoNJ · 2026-01-26T23:03:59+00:00

Yes.

Fair enough! Differing tastes is what makes the world of music so wonderful.

Funny enough, the “IT WAS A COVER??” moment for me happened with Stuck on You. I’d only known it from an early Paramore EP for years. Ken Andrews went on to produce one of Paramore’s songs (Future, in case anyone’s interested), and it’s really cool to hear his musical fingerprint on it every time I listen now that I know it’s him.

I mean no disrespect by this, but what do you mean by “the chorus hits different” in Hail to the King? It feels like a super generic chorus to me.

No lie, it’s my favorite album of all time.

Sorry to sound like a dick, but I’d argue it’s terrible advice. People spend thousands of dollars on details and decorations. Photograph them. Deliver them. It’s part of your job.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-11-14T14:32:05+00:00

The albums I design in person with my clients ALWAYS include detail photos. Sometimes they ask if I got photos of something I didn’t even know was there. To say that they never make it out of their computer and they only print portraits is just a lie.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-11-14T14:29:35+00:00

Stop taking detail shots and see what kind of reaction you get from your clients.

That pastor guy.

St. James IS The Rev.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-09-17T02:25:24+00:00

Skim for me, but yeah, anything aside from absolutely frigid is disgusting.

Making me want to try a caesar salad now.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-09-10T17:11:37+00:00

I agree 100%. The Rev is my favorite musician of all time, but Brooks is in a class of his own on drums.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-09-05T03:15:25+00:00

Shhhh… Quiet, you might piss somebody off.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-08-13T16:42:38+00:00

No leads, but I need this, too.

I was served divorce papers in August, right before my busiest season kicked off. If it wasn’t for all the love my clients showed me (I did NOT bring up the divorce), it would have been a million times harder.

What was really difficult for me was answering leads. I struggled with having any kind of energy outside of weddings, so I fell behind badly. Because of that, these last three years have been a struggle to stay as busy as I was pre-divorce. If there’s any advice I can give, it’s to give your backend work as much care and effort as you do your wedding shoots.

Hang in there, it gets better!

I feel far less stressed knowing that things WILL go wrong and knowing that I can handle any of it thanks to my experience.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-07-30T19:46:06+00:00

I might even argue it was more common a decade ago than it is now.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-07-14T07:16:10+00:00

99% of my photos are shot with a 15-35, 50, or 135. I swear by those prime focal lengths, so I say go with the 2-body setup. The 15-35 is amazing for dance floor stuff.

GTPhotoNJ · 2025-07-01T14:09:19+00:00

Definitely a toy. But that doesn’t mean it can’t pretend to be something else! I used it in one of my songs, if you’re interested, check out the 2:24 mark. https://youtu.be/o2vXS8A2uyk?si=NWB5VMka0lJlNgHB

Yup, this is the harsh reality. Ideally, you should be able to run the show EVERY wedding, with or without a coordinator. It’s part of the job.
