not sure if u r aware of an inccident that happens 1 or 2 years back. during an event, one man spoke using the microphone telling children to study hard so that they won't end up like the event pg who r there to document the event..
i think somehow there is still this thinking that pg is a lower class job.. partly bcos alot of artist cannot earn high income maybe.. but i think it is getting better now..

i agree with you. =)charge 2k and above, dress smart casual/or slightly better in a wedding, nobody will call you cameraman.
or you can smile and tell them nicely, "Sir/Mdm, you can call me [your name] is fine."
once you address people as Sir/Mdm, usually they will address you with a Mr or a proper title.

Most of the guests become polite to me.
I also make sure I have a monopod held threateningly and ready to strike. No guest dare to mess with me. :bsmilie:
