Photographer Lover: 15 Things You Should Know Before Dating a Photographer

Photographer Dear

 

Photographer Dear

1.Photographer Lover is Strange
Photographers are artists, we think that should be enough of an explanation. Let's say you're at a romantic dinner, and out of nowhere he looks sharply into your eyes. No, it's not because he's lost in the depth of your eyes, he's busy thinking of the best angle for that moment.

-Don't worry, I'm coming with my camera...

2. Birthday Gifts Will Surprise You(!)
Probably your birthday presents will consist of your unannounced photographs and every year they will be presented with ceremonies as if it is a gift with lots of surprises. Will you be able to pretend to be surprised every time? After all, there is labor in that gift... In fact, if you put them all together, what a beautiful exhibition could be made from those works...We are thinking completely out loud right now.

-Look, this is the 50th birthday present I gave you... I took it in the hospital, you're unconscious...

3. Movie Night Together May Not Be a Good Idea
Yes, you're hoping for a romantic night sprawled out on the couch, but chances are your night will be spent commenting on color choices or scene angles. And if you lose the remote, you've let scenes play over and over again. Did we mention how much fun this is in the cinema?

-Did he see the angle? Please let him see it... Look at the angle... The angle... The angle, my love

4. Sunsets Aren't as Romantic as You Think
All you wanted was to spend a romantic evening and enjoy the moment. The sunset in front of you, the person you love next to you... Do you think they share the same romance?

-While you're thinking about how magical and dreamlike that moment was, his brain is probably thinking: "1/25 @ f/8 @ ISO 100."

5.They Have Completely Different Attitudes About Spending Money
True, you're fun to be with, you're definitely worth an expensive dinner or a vacation. But you know those 500 lira shoes you like so much, they're not as important as 10,000 lira lenses. It's an investment.

- For that kind of money we used to buy full-size tripods, my heart aches...

6. They Are Crazy Hearted in the Face of Disasters
Earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, forest fires are not disasters for a photographer; on the contrary, they are photo opportunities. While everyone else is running away, they are thinking about how to get closer.

- Don't expect me for dinner...

7. They stare at people in public (Yes, without even blinking)
If you catch your significant other looking at someone else, don't worry. It's not about a physical interaction; it's all about the potential photo. But that doesn't make the situation any less awkward or embarrassing.

-Please don't be disturbed, I'm taking a picture of you in my head right now. Let's tilt the head slightly...Great!

8. They Protect Their Cameras Like 3500-Year-Old Artifacts
The average cost of the equipment in a photographer's bag starts from 3 thousand liras. Therefore, if he has a camera in his hand, approach him with all the prayers you know. (Considering that they always walk around with their cameras... The tension is great!)

-If you hit them, they will walk like this for a week...

9. You Become a Model Whether You Like It or Not
Sure, in the beginning it might seem fun to model for a few fun poses and you'll have lots of profile pictures, but do you know that in time every evening walk will turn into a model shoot?

-My love, my back is stiff, let's go, I'm cold...

10. They are a Troublemaker at Family Meetings
Let's say one of your family members is getting married and you decide to invite your photographer date. Everything the wedding photographer does will be a cause for criticism and your date's secret jealousy will come out. She won't accept if you say, "You take it," but she will take every opportunity to show that she is better than the wedding photographer.

-I'll take it with me anyway, just in case...

11. The Intense Look in Their Eyes Never Means What You Think It Means
While you may think he is looking at you romantically, it is most likely a deep look that comes from how to correct small mistakes on your face.

-I mean the goose feet...Do you want me to retouch them?

12.Nothing Natural is Enough
In all the photos they take, they think about how to make them look better in the photo, instead of enjoying the beautiful things around them, like waiting for nature to be edited in Photoshop or Lightroom to correct their mistakes.

-Woe is him, not even one person has increased his saturation...

13.​ ​They Don't Hesitate to Get into Strange Positions on the Street
You're traveling together, you see a beautiful cathedral, you turn around to ask your girlfriend to go inside, and this is what you see... You'll have to wait until you get the photo she wants, sorry.

 14. Don't expect to be the center of attention when you meet their friends
Imagine a group of photographers together. The conversation will turn to the new cameras, the price of lenses, or the incredible photos they took the other day. You're the one trying to say, "Take a sharp shot of me, but with a blurry back" if you can get in the way. Can you picture the drama?

-There are times when you can't attract as much attention as a cat :(

15. Your left side is always empty in photos
You have to take people by the arm to prove to them that you have a girlfriend. If you say let's put a nice photo of us on Facebook, he already takes them all. If you say let's give it to someone else and let him take it... (let's not hear that!) If he's convinced, maybe a selfie...

-We wish you happiness with yourselves...
