I’ve been wanting to do this for a while and what the heck, it’s my blog so let’s have a little fun. I’m going to randomly post DB sightings if/when they happen. And yes DB = douchebag. It doesn’t happen often but when it does I am going to point it out and shoot it and post it on my blog.
DB #1
Last month while I was photographing Emily and Mike’s engagement session at Union Station, we were interupted in the Great Hall by a derelict asking if we were going to South Bend. It was very random and very odd. The three of us sober people chuckled and blew it off. But the DB did not walk away and was almost posing in the photo with my clients. I had my camera lowered and was trying to think of a way to tell him to shoo while being assertive and nice so as to not cause a scene. Emily spoke up and asked him to leave us alone as we were in the midst of a portrait session. DB told Emily he wasn’t talking to her and used a profanity. I fired off a shot while our jaws dropped and Mike told the DB he was a jerk and to take a hike NOW. And off he shuffled.
Here’s a little photojournalism of the incident:
DB #2
As I mentioned in my earlier blog post about Hillary and Paul’s wedding, it rained a bit that day but only on the way to the ceremony. Once the limo pulled up in front of the church, Hillary’s dad jumped out to quickly run into the church to grab an umbrella and bring it back out for Hillary. That’s what dads are supposed to do on the wedding day! Apparently there was a car right behind the limo that had someone very important in it. The DB couldn’t wait it 21.23 seconds it took Hillary’s dad to run into the church and emerge with an umbrella and for Hillary to exit the limo under cover of said umbrella and for the limo to pull away. Instead the DB laid on the horn the ENTIRE time.
Now of course there is no sound with my photo, but here is a visual description of the DB.
