I think most newspaper photographers have had the experience of belonging to a reporter while out on assignment. A subject may do it or it may be especially irksome when a reporter does it. It usually goes like this


“Reporter: and I’ll have my photographer come by and snap a couple of pictures for art to go with the story”

I really don’t get upset about this kind of thing but it comes off that I am some sort of glorifed picture monkey to be ordered around at the beck and call of a reporter, my peer.
The impetus to write this post however came from an email I received.

“Subject: Eric, is there any way you and one of your writers can come out to our XXXXXXXXXXXXXX”

I don’t think I will correct them for now. Off to wrangle one of my reporters.

Lets start this of with a qualifier, I am not a dog person, not a pet person.
That said I really really really don’t know what motivates people to dress their animals up in costumes and walk them down the street. Yeah its cute, but isn’t it a bit weird?
