RE:    https://www.facebook.com/roxanne.ashey.photography

BEG:   With the Knot, the photos may not have to be stellar to be featured. If it’s just the local one for AZ, you can get in there featured more for the wedding itself than the photos. I’ve seen that happen here a handful of times in The Knot Colorado.
I’ll definitely agree with everyone that the photos are ho-hum.

NES:   Prepare to get a million things from the Knot! I am getting fliers and crap all the time (although, the guide books for parts of Colorado were pretty cool!) in both my email AND my post. So… just a forewarning. Can you link to her knot page? I tried finding it but didn’t manage to… I’m just curious. If she gets lucky OR her stuff is lifted… or, maybe she has a second shooter that she contracted to claim work for? Who knows, but if it’s that big a jump, that just surprises me.
RE: Cain… AGAIN…
Holy crap that guy is seriously a nutjob! I kind of have to echo BEG’s question of if he has some sort of disorder. I just don’t understand how someone can call that stuff Photography in a services market!

MEND:    Oh wow… that new “style” of his is seriously godawful. How the hell can you call that Photography?! I’m used a conversion similar to that of a derelict building with some magic wand selection in photoshop to distress text in Logos (a trick I learned out of an ollllllld photoshop book in high school) but never as a core image. That just blows me away that he uses the word “masterpiece”. It’s a piece of something all right…

 

RE:   AVClub and Farm Fresh

I despise when someone posts a blurry photo on facebook… friends, family, etc. But for a “pro” to be posting blurry images on both their facebook (AV Club has several) AND their actual website (Farm Fresh)?! Noooo sir. I think that is just laziness. Why on Earth would I want to hire an lazy photographer!? It’s seriously one of my biggest pet peeves though…
