ParticipantChristina Kay is awful. I would be beyond pissed if my wedding photos came out like that!
I know on this picture, it’s supposed to be a path going up to the bride, but when you read it, it sounds reversed. I’m reading this as “The Bride Here Comes” as if it were Yoda saying this.

Wow.
September 8, 2013 at 7:13 pm #12789ParticipantI couldn’t resist posting a few examples from the previous fauxtog, who apparently got a paying customer.
In the album titled “The Thing I can do with Pictures.”
In the album titled “All About Kiddos”
In the album titled “All About Ethan Smith”
Okay, Okay… I can’t look any more! My eyes! My eyes!

ParticipantMonkeying Around- that is honestly some of the worst fauxtography I’ve ever seen. There is a datestamp on the majority of the photos. For crying out loud I can take better photos with my cell phone.
She Capitalized every Random word in her Sentences as Well and uses apostrophe’s incorrectly (yes I did that on purpose). That is a crazy pattern among fauxtographers.
Here she has an album of “some pics she took and some she didn’t but she played with them” https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=495381913879965&set=a.495380663880090.1073741881.483534371731386&type=1&theater
Those photographs are pretty boring and bad themselves, and then she stole them and made them look worse.

ParticipantThis woman gets business by taking hundreds upon hundreds of pictures at events/football games at a university, watermarks them, and then posts them so the parents of those in the photos can be tricked into buying them. She holds contests, etc. Some photos aren’t terrible, but she tries to pass as a professional using a kit lens that came with her 60D.
September 8, 2013 at 11:15 pm #12804ParticipantGrr… can’t spell or respect copyright.
September 8, 2013 at 11:40 pm #12805ParticipantI don’t think Cassandra is a fauxtog, though she really over does it in the quantity department. If she’s using a kit lens, she’s really rocking it.
As for Sweet Monkey Butt or whatever it is… omg that is horrible. Anyone who ever takes someone else’s photos without permission and edits them up like that is automatically a fauxtog. That last one really makes me LOL. Not just “lovible” and “pritty” but the whole idea of complimenting someone in that manner. This fauxtog I used to know keeps posting stuff where she says people are beautiful and other adjectives, always including “unaffected.” Everyone she knows is apparently unaffected. It’s really bizarre.

Participantbrowneyedgirl89: That is what I was trying to say about Faller. Some of their images are there! Then you have some just weird ones that stick out! When Thomas said not a faux, I thought maybe he was on mobile because their galleries don’t show or that I was taking crazy pills.

ParticipantSeptember 9, 2013 at 6:19 pm #12842ParticipantI am now convinced Monkeying Around is mentally disabled. There’s no way anyone else would do what she’s doing. This is in NO way a knock on people with disabilities by the way. I just think she has something actually wrong with her. People have posted how great her photography is too. Are they doing it to be nice or are they blind? I can’t imagine anyone would pay for someone to snap pictures with their cell phone and doodle on them!
September 9, 2013 at 6:28 pm #12843Participant@ BEG – LOL! This maybe backs up that theory.

When I first saw it I thought, aww cute – she’s a little entrepreneurial kid, bless her! But then I read she’s 22 and thought…oh dear!

Participant@ Snaphappy – So I just went back to faller and had a proper look through the wedding gallery. I agree, there are some nasty images in this. As BEG said, missed focus etc. I wouldn’t trust them, or want them, to do my wedding. BUT, they seem to have a grasp of what they are doing and this is the “Fauxtogs who should end up on the main page” topic. Looks like they have made some bad choices of which images to showcase but a few bad images doth not a fauxtog make. BEG again summed it up with “inconsistency is weird”. The orange one with the flare coming down is just plain bad, why they chose to use that is a mystery.
So I apologise if I came across wrong but I still wouldn’t call them a Fauxtog. How are the crazy pills, I’ve run out……LOL (That’s a joke the way!)
September 9, 2013 at 7:09 pm #12848ParticipantThomas: They have great photos, so no, I don’t think they are fauxs as a whole. However some of them might just be front page worthy. I feel like my words don’t make sense… :/
