worst lab in the entire world. i sent them 4 rolls of film in oct. it is now the middle of march with no images back.

ponzi scheme and a big one at that.

Lack of vision. So many wedding photographers shoot weddings in a way they expect them to be shot. It's like they started out by looking at what other wedding photographers were doing and tried to carbon copy that. There are a million ways to tell a story, but when you look at wedding photographers in general every post is is groundhog day.

I'm not saying I don't do the same, we all do, but it feels like so many wedding photographers completely lack artistic vision.

Shoot it your way.

no.

Formosa. It's a hole on the wall but it's good eatin'. I'm taking you, Joe and Abegg and whoever else wants to go

Me answering no to yes and no questions now and then? Especially after over 3000 questions answered. Do I think that is arrogant?

No.

Jenny Jimenez & Jonathan Canlas immediately come to mind.

Here's my beef with so called "pro" labs. They should all do what RPL does if they want professionals who still shoot film regularly to come back to them. What does RPL promise to do that is so magical- take your preferences into account? It would seem to me if you have someone shooting say 60-100 jobs per year on film and you want their business it makes sense have a relationship with them, and thats all that RPL is doing, and I appreciate it as a customer. If the other guys aren't its probably why they are going out of business and RPL is busier than ever.

I tried a local lab here in Georgetown a little over a year ago that all the "pro's" swore was the best around. They were more expensive than RPL and guess what? They had no interest in helping me out, learning what I wanted to do or customizing anything for me. It was, "here's our services, here's the price, a scan is a scan is a scan". I asked lots of questions and no one cared about what I wanted.

I haven't tallied it recently up but my guess is that I have spent $15-20k on lab fees since then, so they probably should have wanted me as a customer. I will tell you this, its been worth every penny for the peace of mind RPL provides.

Ha. I can assure you no one is mistaking me or anyone else for Jose Villa. He is probably the most well known wedding photographer on the planet right now, whereas I am a guy who is still very much learning how to get better at every wedding.

We both like pretty, sunny photos but I don't think there is anything in our Mexican blood making us good photographers :) I am not really on the same playing field as he is, but it would flattering if anyone thinks so. I am just trying to take photos that I love and hopefully other people love them too. So far its working out.

I send it all to Richard Photo Lab. They are great at what they do.

It could be described like this

it's just not me or my style. there is little that is new to photograph, it's all been done. i love the creative control i get with portraits and fashion photography. plus i can't stand being walked over, my vision has to be heard.

I never use a reflector and very rarely ask people to move closer to the windows. It's their wedding, not my photo shoot.

I never advertised until three weeks ago and then I only did it because I got an amazing deal on a full page ad.

Advertising is overrated.
