Why is it some photographers...mostly photographers...feel the need to have a "trademark"? Some have the trademark hawaiian shirt or hat or some stupid gesture or saying?...what happened to being recognized for working hard and getting the best shots?

The folks I know who have trademark "looks" do all tend to be creative types, though. I think it's just another way of expressing themselves while saying at the same time, "Look at me."

Some have the trademark London Fog overcoat or fedora or some stupid hand gesture or cliche they use in their writing?...what happened to being recognized for working hard and writing the best stories?

I knew a photographer whose trademark move was to accidentally shoot himself in glass reflections and mirrors over and over. :D
