Here’s an article from Scotland’s new online newspaper, the Caledonian Mercury:
“A note about bargain photographers (actual text)
Just a little translation help for craigslist ads:
When the photographer’s ad says: “$500 and under!”, the photographer means: “I’m not a photographer, but my mom bought me a Digital Rebel!””
etc, etc
“Be careful getting your wedding photographer for $500 from Craigslist – seriously ok? Buy a couch from Craigslist. Look for a part time job on craigslist – but do you really want to hire your wedding photographer with the same service you can give away your old clothes?”
