I can’t even elaborate comments on those photographers as I suck as much or worse than them 🙂
May 16, 2013 at 3:07 pm #9730IpshwitzParticipantOh and she gets much, much better…
May 16, 2013 at 6:03 pm #9743iliketagParticipantIs there anyone willing to contact that A.P.E. guy? I am honestly curious if he has any current work to show. All of his stuff is so outdated, I’m interested to see what he’s doing now. I would never book anyone without having current examples and I can’t seem to find anything on his site. I mean, even that blockbuster picture. That’s gotta be super early 2000’s at latest!
May 16, 2013 at 8:16 pm #9745fstopper89Participant“Fantastic is the word that comes to mind!”
Uh…no. Nice fake water ripples. I hope this couple hired a real photographer for their wedding because otherwise it was as good as ruined.
May 16, 2013 at 8:56 pm #9746JanJanParticipant@iliketag…it seems like he spends more time marketing his services than updating his portfolio. He posted a very vague video on both YouTube and Vimeo back in 2012.

May 16, 2013 at 11:51 pm #9747sethParticipantI don’t think Cieara is a fauxtographer, and not just because you’ve all finally hit on one I (kinda) know lol. We all make mistakes and she’s got some but largely I think she does very nice work.
May 16, 2013 at 11:51 pm #9748sethParticipantKeep digging that local area though LOL
May 17, 2013 at 2:17 am #9753ThomasParticipantI came across this in the free ads (UK) just now and had to share it. Check out the testimonial from Kelly, made me cringe!
May 17, 2013 at 2:19 am #9754ThomasParticipantMay 17, 2013 at 6:13 am #9756Worst Case ScenarioParticipantThank you Thomas that just brightened my morning!
May 17, 2013 at 12:03 pm #9759iliketagParticipantha… ha ha ha… brightened your day… because the website is a neon assault on the eyes… awesome. 🙂
For real though. Awful! That site is not only ugly and looks like something built with Geocities in the 90’s, but none of the photos actually smoothed themselves out for me, so it’s like they were still compressed. “Portable Studio” = hanging a “backdrop” in front of a window apparently… why not a solid wall? Why on earth would you hang it in front of a window and have half of it backlit?!
Why do people fork over money for crap?
I seriously do not understand, like with so many fauxtogs posted in this thread, why people think this is good.
It’s one thing for a family friend or relative to do family photos or even something like senior pictures… but a modeling portfolio? If you were serious about it wouldn’t you want to hire someone with quality? You have to sell yourself with these shots and if they’re not good enough you’re basically shooting yourself in the foot.May 17, 2013 at 1:12 pm #9762ThomasParticipant@iliketag I thought it was just me with those compression issues, god knows how they managed that. I whole heartedly agree with you about paying money for nothing!
May 17, 2013 at 6:45 pm #9784sethParticipantMay 17, 2013 at 6:53 pm #9785picarusslimParticipantMy lord, that foliofotos site is straight out of the 90s. It’s awful from top to bottom and the photos are dog rough. The model feedback is clearly written by the same person. I think the photos may be stolen too, the ‘skill’ range is very different from photo to photo.
May 18, 2013 at 12:56 pm #9808ThomasParticipantFound another one by the same person, it’s just as bad….possibly worse

UPDATE – And another….oh what is going on!
