Granted, I went there a few years after the earthquake but even then I thought to myself as I went to Port-au-Prince \"this is hell on Earth\". Granted, when compared to active warzones/genocides/etc., it is far from hell on Earth but in places like that there is some finality. The war won't last forever. The killings will stop eventually. My time in Haiti made me lose any hope in the country ever being righted. \n\nAnyways, yeah the beaches do go on for days and they are shitholes.

I just want people to know Muslim girls care about their hair too\n\nThat being said, I agree with you, it’s a hard marketing sell.

It chills your mouth even though it isn’t actually ‘cold’. \nLikewise, it’s like the same when you have it in a shampoo- you feel like your scalps been ‘minted’ and it feels awesome when everything else is warm (we even have mentholated shower gels). \nSo I assume for those who wear hijabs it’s an excellent way to feel a little cooler neath the layers. \n\nIf you want to get a little more scientific... it works somewhat similar to how chilli does. Capsaicin, the compound in chilli that causes us to feel the heat, binds to the same receptors in our body that activate to actual heat - this mimicking the ‘hot’ effect. \n\nLikewise, menthol is like the cold version. It stimulates the thermoreceptors that would result in a ‘cold’ feedback, (like with eating mint sweets only instead of activating the receptors in your mouth it activated them on your scalp/body ie wherever you want really with the shower gel). So after a wash I find the menthol effect lasts for an hour... then I stop noticing it. \n", "I guess.", "a quickie Rejoice for hijab on google would do justice", "i take it you don't know the definition of compulsory", "Yes, I'm very much aware of how it is viewed. That's my point. We (western society) laugh at this. Showing a man's hair is fine but a woman's is taboo. But it's the same way that showing a man's chest is fine but showing a woman's is taboo here. ", "Take it off girl ", "It could help stop the hair from getting all split ends or something when it's tucked under a silk hijab all day?", "I don't think it's taboo, it's more a case of not showing sexual parts to minors in public places. Most adults have no problem with seeing a pair of titties.\n\nThat's why the common \"US TV doesn't even show tits\" is a bit disingenuous. The FCC does it because people don't want 'porn' being shown to kids, because the airwaves are accessible to anyone." ]

(Albeit without seeing rest of the work it's hard to judge). Photography is much more than those two elements. Your sister definitely had luck in making a business out of it.

It was ten years ago so I'd guess she more than used the card again and again. \n\nWe had a small wedding with small costs and I'm a sucker for giving people a chance. I saw her portrait work and she'd done a few other wedding with really nice results.

", "Not sure if you’re serious, but it would make the subject look like she’s bending down instead of leaning back. I think it would not improve the shot. ", "I’m very impressed that you knew that. But yes the weddings themselves are more “low key” however afterwards after the ceremony is when she does all of the pictures with family and friends as well as bridesmaids grooms etc. She also takes wedding announcement photos for before the wedding as well and those are very important. As for the ceremony itself, there are no pictures taken.\n\nEdit: ahh being in Utah probably gave away the whole LDS thing hahaha", "She got a website?", "Haha, yeah and I spent a lot of time in Idaho so I'm familiar.

With more than one wedding per week, at *least*, how does she have time to edit them all and such?

The trendiness route of Utah Lightroom presents are the easy parts. If I ever heard a photographer say that, I would never trust them. Just had a Wedding client call me crying a few months back (I filmed her Wedding) about her wedding photos and I looked at the work of a “one to three clicks” preset work from a Utah Wedding photographer and was devastated. This style is very easy to emulate and is trendy at the moment but when it comes to learning lighting, settings and understanding how to bring out emotion without relying on one click film-grainy presets, you better invest in a reliable photographer. Most LDS photographers don’t shoot a 8-10 hour wedding day in varying lighting situations and don’t grow past shooting outside photos. \n\nThis is a great photo and I’m sure she’ll grow to be great. But I vomited in my soul when I read “editing is easier than it seems”. ", "I'm a photographer, and I can believe how many people are doing the sepia tone junk right now for weddings. They go out of their way to make everything brown. It looks awful, and yet, people are in love with it.

CARRY ON WITH THE DRUNK REDDIT!", "After viewing her website, she seems to have decent pricing. It would definitely be a little on the lower end where I'm at (Orlando), but I don't know what a normal wedding goes for in Utah. She seems to have a pretty consistent, natural light (ie, avoiding any use of flash) style. I would recommend that she learn flash (can't imagine shooting a reception without it), and start to raise her prices. If she's getting booked that much, she's not charging enough. Might as well work a bit less, and make the same amount. ", "You really really underestimate how cheap some people are doing weddings for now. Some of the \"weddings\" a friend of mine shoots are nothing more than 2 hours in someones backyard for $100. Not everyone wants to hire professionals for thousands of dollars.

The front ground are the out of focus leaves which frame the shot better and draw the eyes to the model. The background is also out of focus and the highlights bring the eyes to the model. I'd say the composition is pretty solid overall. ", "> They're getting married from like May through September.\n\nI saw a wedding taking place on December 23rd in Taunton, UK. I couldn't understand why anyone would book their wedding for such a miserable, and likely wet, time of the year!", "> Editing is often the hardest part of photography\n\nWith recent RAW converters, preset packs and FX editors (Luminar, for example), you have it **much** easier today.\n\nIt also can be much less time consuming - you can apply a preset to many pictures in a batch, and get away with minor adjustments (cropping, exposure, contrast). \"Repair\" tools for skin work like magic today.\n\nWho says she does hundreds of (final) pictures for a wedding? When I do weddings, they get around 50 final pictures, max. And that was always way more than enough.\n\n\nWhat I doubt more is her technical skill with the camera and peripheries (flash, reflectors, general lighting), scenes and posing.

My sister started a photography company last year with little experience after her friend gave her a camera. In that time she’s photographed over 50 weddings and is absolutely amazing with a camera now. Just thought the talent she’s developed should be shown off.

[ "I can’t even imagine what they’re both going through and I can see genuine happiness in this picture ", ":( this makes me sad and happy at the same time \n\nEdit: Wow I can't believe so many of you agree with me ", "Here's the full story in the Tampa Bay Times. Very sad situation but awesome that the community came together to fund their wedding expenses on such short notice. I wish this couple all the happiness in the world as they spend their final weeks together. Fuck cancer. \n\n>A Florida teen who doctors say is dying from a rare form of cancer has been granted one of his final wishes, to be married to his high school sweetheart. 19-year-old Dustin Snyder and 21-year-old Sierra Siverio were wed Sunday in Plant City, near Tampa. \"After her being there with me through this cancer, always supporting me and loving me, that's when I knew she was the one,\" Snyder said. \"I wanted to give her something back before my time was up.\" Doctors say Snyder has weeks or maybe a month to live. Wasting no time, Snyder proposed to Siverio on Thursday. The community quickly came together to make sure the wedding took place, donating everything from the rings to the wedding gown and the venue. The two say they've been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from strangers. Snyder's sister, Brittany Hails, posted her brother's story on Facebook and started a GoFundMe page, which had raised nearly $13,000 by Friday. An update said they had met their goal and leftover donations would help the family with other expenses. \"I didn't think it would go this far, but God was on our side,\" Hails said. \"Dustin's really excited, and all we wanted is for him to be happy. And he's happy right now.\" The teens met in middle school, but had lost touch before reuniting in high school. Snyder has battled synovial sarcoma much of that time. On June 27, 2016, the day before his 18th birthday, Snyder went to the hospital with chest pains, which his mother thought were brought on by asthma. But doctors quickly diagnosed the teen with synovial sarcoma, which targets soft tissue and is more common among adolescents and young adults than other age groups who contract it. \"When I first found out I was devastated, but then he told me I needed to be strong for him,\" Siverio said. \"Ever since he said that I've been by his side.\"", "I can’t be happy, but I can’t be sad either.", "It is a great story for him.\n\nWill it be a great story for her in 5-10 years when she is looking for a lifelong mate? Curious what lifelong effect this will have on her life.", "Also, pardon my ignorance but as his wife does she have to take on his medical expenses? This is beautiful and sad and romantic but what does this mean for her in the future? ", "What a weird statement. The story for her is probably that she loves him deeply, she married him, and he's going to die. She will mourn as any widow would, and her life will carry on with a piece of him forever. ", "That's kinda fucked up \n\nSeems a little selfish to ask that when you're gonna fucking die in a couple weeks. ", "Better knock her up on the wedding night.", "Probably the same as if he died while he was her boyfriend really. She loves him, what difference does it make. She fulfilled him, that itself will give her a little solace.", "I remember reading a story of a similar event. Girl dying, get married. But, she beats the odds and survives. Then realizes she doesn't want to be married and never really loved the guy but what ever, she was supposed to die. So she leaves him, takes a bunch in divorce court and he had to pay her alimony.\n\nCrazy story... As far as I know it was true but who knows.", "Just makes me sad. ", "This is just devastating.
