We chose one just because his style fit our needs more, but we wound up using the other for a smaller job. Never underestimate the long term impact of a positive encouter.

I learned that one a long time ago. Keep at it! Shooting weddings will toughen you up for anything that anyone will throw at you in life!

The surprising part of it all is seeing how little this rejection bothers me. Yes, I would have LOVED to shoot this wedding, but I know that more opportunities will present themselves, so I'm not worried about it. There was a time when a simple rejection would have sent me questioning my worth as a photographer. It's nice to see one's own growth, both photographically and personally. Thanks for the comment!

Although I don't shoot weddings, I deal with rejections on a regular basis, and learn from them. But, those rejections are becoming fewer and fewer as I move along. Just keep shooting, continue to learn, ... and enjoy yourself while you are at it! I most certainly know the feeling!
