#Weddinghumour: The funniest requests recieved by Indian wedding photographers

A while ago, while we were in conversation with one of our talented photogs on WMG, he mentioned how they end up getting some of the funniest requests from brides and grooms. Well, our reporting team got to work and the more photographers we spoke to, the more we realised just HOW hilarious we can be at our own weddings ! The 'Photoshop equals magic' type of requests: 1. "We have not invested much on the decoration but my daughter told me that you are a fantastic photographer. Can you put some nice flower decoration on each photo to make it look nice? Put some rich one no please." - as told to Akhil khatri, photographer (Bangalore) 2. "Bhaiya can you photoshop the hair of my fiance. He shouldn't look bald " (even though the guy has no hair on his head!!)- as told to numerous photographers who prefer to remain Anonymous  3.  I once got asked to fit one person in an image who could not make it. This was after they gave me a 4X6 print and asked to put the guy from it into the image. - Devang Singh Photography (Delhi) 4. "My family has very fat arms, can you photoshop our arms so they don't look as fat in the photos" - Photographer who prefers to remain Anonymous 5. "Please change the color of my lehenga from peach to orange. The designer made it peach by mistake but I think you can photoshop it right?" - as told to Morvi Images and " Can you change the reception lighting in the photos from red to blue?" 6.   "My eyes are shut in this photo. Can you photoshop them so that they are open"- As told to Rishabh Agarwal, Photographer (Delhi) 7. "This picture looks good. Can you put him(the groom) next to me , smiling?" - from a bride--to-be who saw her just clicked picture while she was getting ready -as told to Fotografia9   The 'Posed but candid ' requests 1. Bride -" I don't want posed photos and all ya, I just want candid photos like these "- (Shows all posed Bollywood style shots) - as told to Paddy , Bangalore 2. "Lakshya  please click a candid photo of me"  says a guest as she full on poses with hand on her hip - Lakshya Chawla  3. "But these photos are not candid ya. Candid is supposed to show just one eye, then just my toe, then just my ring ..stuff like that. Thats what candid means na" - as told to an Anonymous photographer   The just so random requests! 1. Client: " Please change our wedding dates from May to December" Me: Why? Client: "Yaar Actually it's a south Indian wedding and my husband would be topless and his gym instructor has told him that he would need atleast 6 more months to develop his abs"  :P :P - Anonymous photog  2. Bride - Can you use this image for the cover photo for the album, sends her 10KB thumbnail photo from her phone via Whatsapp.- Akhil Khatri 3. Once while i was flying my hexacopter (the video cameras that fly in the air)  in Goa, this one guy kept insisting that I fly it over his head because it was giving him respite from the warm weather !!!!!! Once I was done later in the day ... I kept asking him every few minutes if he wanted to come fly with me and I could give him a free haircut - I think he went home early from this wedding …  :)  - Anonymous 4. There’s this girl who thought the colour of her outfit, lipstick and skin had changed when I gave her the pics after editing. It was funny for two reasons: 1. Nothing had actually changed. 2. She thought only her outfit, lip colour and skin looked different however everyone else’s looked the same. I tried explaining to her that the editing software didn’t really know her and didn’t change the colour of ONLY her clothes, lips and skin on purpose. After a lot of back and forth , she told me that I have a poor laptop and that she has a MacBook and that’s why I can’t tell the difference. In the end, I told her I too have a MacBook after which she never said a word :) - Anonymous photog from Delhi 5. Groom's brother - What lens are you using??? Why don't you use "Macro Photography" for Wedding?? - Paddy , Photographer (Delhi)   Lets sign off with this gem: "Hello, is this Aditya Mendiratta Photography clinic?" - on the phone with Aditya Mendiratta , Photographer (Delhi)   So, which one was your fav guys??
