This morning, Sunday the 4th of May, the ever factual and in-depth Economic Times ran an article on Wedding Photography in India<\/a>. The reporter had called me a week or so ago to record a few facts, and we had an interesting fifteen minute conversation where I told him all I knew about the industry – as it existed in India. He must have checked his facts, because as I read the article today – I noted that he had also quoted a couple of other wedding photographers in India – most of whom I either know personally – or whom I know by their work.<\/span><\/p>\n The article was titled “Candid wedding photography proves lucrative and creatively fulfilling for lensmen<\/em>“. This headline was supported by a slew of facts and numbers – all of which make wedding photography seem very, very (VERY!)<\/strong> <\/em>attractive indeed as an industry to be in. As i was going through it, I couldn’t help but imagine how many people in India today would have been inspired to leave their regular nine-to-five desk jobs and take up wedding photography as a profession. After all, it seems easy. Buy a camera – shoot a couple of friends or family weddings – and hey presto, you’re earning in lakhs. You’re travelling to fantastic destinations. You’re partying with the stars! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
