JanJanI’ve stumbled upon this person. He says he’s been a professional photographer for 39 years
I don’t know what to say about this one:

This is from his Craig’s List Ad

He is the 2nd person I’ve ran into from my area who claims they have been doing this for many years, but their work clearly says otherwise.
I’m thinking that this person really has been a photographer for 39 years because much of his work posted looks like they were from the 80’s, but then was scanned and edited in Photoshop. It looks like he was much comfortable working with film in the past and failed to make the transition to digital. I think he just needs to lay off the Photoshop and just focus on the composition. It’s not horrible, but the editing makes it look horrible!
I also don’t get his “Evidence Photography” pricing at $199 for 6 images. His “Evidence Photography” are just pictures of wrecked cars that seemed to be no different than an appraiser taking pictures.
