This woman’s page says that she’s been a professional photographer since 2007, and yet I found her in a photography group on facebook, claiming to be a beginner, and asking  “how do I get a blurry background using a Nikon D3100?”
I was tempted to write back that if she didn’t know something so basic, and still considered herself a beginner, then maybe she shouldn’t be charging people up to $200/hour for her “professional” services.

A couple of notable mentions:

And although it’s photographically not too awful, this one made me cringe
