There’s a thing in the wedding photography gig called a wedding hangover. Basically most of us are absolutely dead the next day after “just” an 8-12 hour wedding.
It seems stupid to a lot of people, but that many hours being hyper vigilant and stressed wrecks you. I did landscaping work as a teen on very hot days and that’s nothing compared to a wedding.
- berniedurfee 4y agoI concur. I shot a couple weddings and was absolutely burnt out at the end. Lots of stress; being in the right place at the right time with the right gear set to the right settings with all the expectations of the bride and groom and family. I’m sure it gets easier, but it’s a grind.
- Auracle 4y agoI'm afraid that in my case it never got easier - maybe the opposite, actually. As you get better you expect more from yourself and your clients do as well. Part of it in my case may be the fact I'm an introvert and just being "on" around so many people is tiring.
