ParticipantThey are not in my portfolio but I have car accidents in my galleries. No gore, but definitely wrecked cars.
I don’t spend much time in cemeteries but I have some photos of them too.

ParticipantGotcha. I thought she was referring to showing the gory part of the accidents. I don’t have my cemetary pics on my flicker account. They are all on my photobucket account and facebook account. I was/ still am facinated by old cememtaries just because I am a major history buff and love to research the people buried in those cemetaries. My favorite cemetary to go to was the “old Burying Grounds” in Beaufort NC. They have a lot of interesting people buried there with interesting stories.

Just missed it!

ParticipantI think they missed that shot “by a long shot” just as their business name implies… lol. I’m not even sure if that idea would ever look good, but I could imagine if it were properly focused there is a possibility it could… I just don’t see it though.
This who album should be called “Photoshop disasters.” https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.311575002259884.72414.151508331599886&type=3

ParticipantWow BEG. someone found the magic wand tool and learned how to make horrible selections.. Even worse yet, is they’ve learned to copy and paste said selections and have created supremely unrealistic scenes. They certainly need their p.shop revoked.
You really know what’s ironic about all these bad photographers (fauxtogs)? Everything. The most ironic part? A “TRUE” professional photographer would be SUED instantly for EVER handing over anything similar to this shit that gets peddled on here. I guess when you only accept cash and don’t use contracts or have real names kinda helps sail that boat..
I’m sure any of us whom actually survive in this wretched business; fauxtogs aloof at every corner, stalking their victims like prey into a metaphysical and perpetually enduring atrocity that will never make a print and walking away unscathed.. Us on the other hand? We’d be scalped and burned at the stake. Dafuq. I hate clichés and paradoxes

April 4, 2013 at 11:50 pm #8609ParticipantI know right? This one https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=313403822077002&set=a.311575002259884.72414.151508331599886&type=3&theater Let’s just take a photo of a fire truck, a cat, a kid, put the whole scene in the forest, and call it good.
eminds me of an exercise in a beginning Photoshop course I took in college, where we had to take random objects from several different photos. It was supposed to show our professor we could carefully cut out objects with quick select and create realistic shadows and stuff. In fact here is my silly project: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1224532345543&set=a.1002219587863.2000403.1596030065&type=3&theater
Funny but no one was going to try to market it as professional work… but look this fauxtog attempted just that.
April 5, 2013 at 8:26 am #8625ParticipantLoL, I’ve seen kindergartners make better selections out of magazines and composite that shit on construction paper with elmers glue and look 100x better than that fireman+tree+cat..
My wife is a psychologist, I maybe shall ask her to dig into the mind of a ‘fauxtog’. 😀
BEG: you’ve definitely got skill that far exceeds that of “Long Shot”. They at least correctly named themselves appropriately. It’s definitely a long shot that it’s photography. 😛

April 5, 2013 at 9:04 pm #8643ParticipantWhy post a Walmart photo studio coupon as your own advertisement, saying you can give more photos for less money? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=440158342717939&set=o.151508331599886&type=3&theater
Pay her $20 and she’ll liquify the heck out of your shirtless photo to show you how fat you really are. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.316907491726635.73463.151508331599886&type=3

ParticipantI didn’t think I would ever find anyone of fauxtog quality, but alas I have stuck upon gold! … Or something. I’ll link to the ones that are worse than the others, but there’s plenty to choose from.
Nothing says “Wedding” like a yellow face…

Participant@cameraclicker
Sears and Walmart studios did close down the other day!
I work at a JCPenney Studio and my boss had to go over to the closest Sears to comfort them…April 7, 2013 at 10:38 pm #8676ParticipantStumbled upon this tonight. Now I’m not sure if she charges or advertises, so *maybe* she’s not technically a fauxtog. But she has senior pic albums. Just terrible editing and it’s obvious she is using a point-and-shoot and thinks these crazy edits are cool. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Taylorrmade-Photography/322358097869060
