"Shoot" and "Shot" and "Shooting"

[dbvirago]

Not really worried about that, since I shot the sheriff. Of course, forgetting to also shoot the deputy may prove problematic.

The shooting of the sheriff, was it in self defense?

Was it when he was trying to stop you from taking photos in a public place?

Someone once told me that the term "Snapshot" was originally derived from Sharpshooters?

Yes, I believe it is.

I think the issue isn't so much about whether the terms are irritating or not, what is important is how your clients (not customers!) perceive you. Some words sound more professional than others, so in turn, you are perceived as being more professional. What sounds better "I'm going to take a great shot of your family" or "I'm going to create a beautiful photo of your family" 'Picture' is another word that devalues your craft. Other negative words are 'cost' and 'price'. It's much better to say 'investment'. I learned the importance of the words you use from the great American salesman Zig Ziglar (who died last week).

I think this falls in with the great pussification of America. Who cares, people have heard shoot, shot and shooting for years. They know what's being said. Let it go.
