On the opposite side are those one-man bike-maker-designer or small teams in some obscure scenic villages expertly welding some really fantastic bikes for a selected clientele whom do not mind waiting 5 years for the delivery of their bikes. (Yes, 5 years!) Examples are Independent Fabrication (IF), Vanilla, Dave Kirk and Seven.
I am naturally attracted to the latter group of bike-makers because I respect their dedication and time and effort to perfect a piece of art for the clients. I hope to be like them, in my field of wedding photography. I'd want my clients to be filled with joy when they receive the album, just like I would when I receive my custom-fit bicycle.
When I delivered the DVD slideshow to Jason and Tessalin, I cycled to their apartment (which is not too far away). In my mind, the above-mentioned thought ran through my mind and when I watched their expressions as the slideshow played before them, I knew for sure I want to be the IF or Vanilla of wedding photography.
Fortunately, they need not wait 5 years for the album.
