fstopper89Sweet Emotions… we all have lives and jobs (many of us have professional photography as our job or one of our jobs.) We find these fauxtogs mainly by seeing things pop up in our Facebook feeds or tickers. I myself tend to click on photographer’s page links when I see them because I am a photographer and like seeing other photography. Unfortunately sometimes I see fauxtography. We don’t sit at our computers for hours searching for bad photography.
Come on, this is supposed to be professional work??
It is out-of-focus, and then you chopped off the background and added a gray gradient. Who really would pay for that?
You had a photo of a bride in front of a window that had potential, but then you did some kind of liquify treatment making the window look like it was tripping on acid and then faded the colors to black and white, making (as one commenter put it) her arm look dead. You use all these fake backgrounds and cut the people out and paste them on them. Why can’t you just go outside and take the picture in a real location? Back away from the photoshop until you can handle photography!
