My buddy Randal Stout (amazing DJ by the way) posted a fun trend list for 2007 on his blog..  You guys can take a look at it here http://www.djrandal.com/blog/ in a bit, however it got me thinking of all the funny trends we have gone through in the photography industry… 

Let me see if I can recall some of them….

Fog filter – puts a layer of fog on the entire image, nothing says romance like fog…  
Star filter – I once knew a photographer who wanted his students to use a 6 sided star filter as it looked better than the 4 sided one..   i’m like ummmm  okie!!
Bride and Groom in the brandy/wine glass – this was cutting edge back in the day now it’s just plain silly
Bride with the marriage liscense around the grooms neck with a wink and a thumbs up – One word – silly.
Dad with his pockets out – come on dude we know you got the money, I mean this check you gave me is gonna clear right??

I’m sure there are more that will come to mind but I found these quite funny and out of these I have only done the Dad with his pockets out and that was only when the dad jumped in front of me and pulled his pockets out..  Rather strange behavior in the middle of the dance floor but hey whatever…

Ok now go to Randal’s blog and show him some love…
