- Most of your Facebook statuses are “Editing tonight” or “Check out this teaser”
- Currently or at one time your profile picture is a film noir style low key black and white photo of yourself
- You have numerous odd shaped black bags – carrying cases for every piece of equipment imaginable
- You have a love-hate relationship with Instagram
- You raise an eyebrow when your friends with DSLRs call
themselves photographers (Photographer friends of yours probably did the same when you told them you were a photographer)
- You have an accountant friend who would like free photos taken as a favour, but charges you to do your taxes
- You can be awake at all hours of the day and be in any condition to get the perfect shot
- You can never stop buying equipment. There is always something you need
- When attending weddings you don’t watch the bride and groom, you watch the photographer
- You love the stack of gold boxed in your closet and will never throw them away (If you’re a Cannon person insert whatever colour your camera products come in. Black and red? If you are a Hasselblad user you probably have mahogany boxes in your Penthouse storage closet).
- You see in f-stop
- You own numerous books on photography and Photoshop you have never read, but you love looking at the pictures
- You hate the fact the women keep hair elastics on their wrists (at some point you forgot to check)
- You have to justify to friends/spouse why you spent $90 on a little piece of plastic that has something to do with lighting
- You have purchased stupid pieces of $90 plastic, you regret
buying because you never use them
