That craigslist ad with the bride and the fake brick wall is horrendous. Not only did they do the biggest slop-job at ‘shopping that “wall” together, they added a random chandelier just floating there. AWFUL! And he boasts about how much of a professional he is!

That 20-year-old girl speaks like any teenager in her posting. Whatever happened to making yourself sound like a professional? Not like her photography is any good, anyway… point-and-shoot over-edited junk.

Dear god if you want to be a professional photographer, learn your trade and learn it well; be able to produce something of high quality! How can people not feel guilty that they are duping people into sub-standard work? Or are they really just blind and have no clue? When I was learning photography I looked at photos from other photographers whenever I could and thought, “Wow I love how they got the photo to look like that, I’m going to learn how to do that too.” And I still do that when I find something I don’t really know how to do.
