βCommon Questions
Q.Why send a sarcastic New Year wish to a photographer?
Because after a year of dealing with impossible lighting, demanding clients, and 'exposure' being confused with 'visibility,' they've earned a bit of relatable snark. It shows you truly understand their struggles, albeit with a chuckle and a knowing nod.
Q.Are these wishes appropriate for all photographers?
Only if they possess a healthy sense of humor and aren't overly sensitive about their craft. Best reserved for the ones who can laugh at themselves and the absurdities of the industry. If they're still trying to explain the 'rule of thirds' to their aunt, maybe stick to something safer.
Q.What's the best way to deliver a sarcastic wish?
With a straight face, a knowing smirk, or paired with a gift of a ridiculously overpriced lens filter they'll never use. Or, simply text it and let the digital sarcasm do all the heavy lifting. The key is conveying that you're in on the joke, not just being mean.
