Um, well Google indexes everything that doesn’t have a robot.txt.. Pretty much, once it’s hit Google images, it’ll be under the site name and category.. I searched Google Images for: “Youarenot sideways tracks”, and the first photography was the infamous Shelby Photography image..

Technically, you can plug an image into Google and it will find either THAT image or images somehow similar to it..

momofmany; I think people like her have to learn the hard way.. There will be a client that will hold her accountable for the photos she produces.. When such a time presents itself, she will be in a world of hurt. It takes NOTHING to pay a court clerk a filing fee and bring up civil litigation.. Photography is something that can NOT be readily reproduced once the “event” is over. A wedding is something that can KILL your career, instantly. If you don’t have insurance, plan on filing bankruptcy..

BEG, you really threw yourself out there in this one.. Lol, I was impressed with how well you managed and endured relentlessly being assaulted by egomaniacal crazy rednecks! I love how they keep twisting the South with, “Redneckism”.. I’ve seen some rednecks up north that put these guys to shame.. Last I checked, being Southern is not about being a dumb ass redneck piece of shit that sits on the porch all day drinking beer, fucking chickens, and watching the bug-zapper while playing a banjo!

Yeah,  I don’t ever recall getting money for nothing, ever. I think snaphappy pretty much nailed it.. “Charity, maybe.. Portfolio definitely.”

Portfolios aren’t really all that hard to build.. You can technically take a binder with model releases to the street and ask people to let you photograph them. I’ve known people to setup shop downtown… Free photo, uploaded to the photographers website with the filename given to the person for access.. Only requirement is a model release. Take some flash guns, seamless white paper and a background stand and setup shop under some shade.. 😀 You can bang out some nice photos quickly.

The bricks behind him are focused ? 🙂

Mama told me I could be anything that’I, wanted to be.. So I, chose a path of, Photography; and 20 minutes later I’m a child prodigy, and everybody tells me, that I am so brilliant, I shine like a shit stain on a polished floor let me tell you somethin people! I AM ADORED. My family love me, they tell me so.

JLiu, :[ so do I. LOL

Yeah, don’t you hate that.. Someone completely innocent caught in the middle.. If I were that woman, I’d go to the local newspaper and expose them..

At this point, it’s just beating a dead horse.. There’s obviously not a single drop of humility in that entire family.. There’s not one ounce of them actually wanting to see her ‘succeed’. False praise is every single person in this worlds, downfall. It will take approximately, ONE client who will hold her to higher standards and she will not comply.. That will bring civil litigation and a lawsuit which will bankrupt that family. Not having proper licensing will further exacerbate that.. Not to mention, having absolutely no liability insurance.. So yeah.. That usually happens to those who fail to listen and heed warnings.. People get the misconception that our community is one of, “hate”. I don’t dislike that girl, or her family.. I dislike her (and her families) ethics and her moral compass. They’ve done nothing but grace us with meaningless platitudes. Her photo ended up on a public forum, from a public forum.. What’s even more ironic, is now it will end up on Google images, because this site is indexed. I suppose they are going to be suing Google too? Oh well. 🙂

All you have to do is make over $500.00, and you’re obligated to record that with the IRS. I seriously doubt she has kept her accounting in order.. There again, I suspect she doesn’t know what a 1099 is let alone a fed/state tax ID

She made 900 bones in 3 weeks? That’s laughable. I made $8,000 last weekend.

I don’t care what you do, and tbh if you’re not making a profit I’m fairly confident you’d probably get endorsed by those companies for a charity..

That’s like, the teapot calling the kettle black.. Don’t you agree? I am a professional photographer.. Just like a cop is a professional, they’d soon not see someone who’s never qualified themselves running a beat. I’d soon not see someone buy a brand new set of tools and never build anything in their lives suddenly decide they want to build houses for people…. Surely, you’d agree that you’d not want to see someone who can’t drive, race NASCAR..

Just like most of us would rather people learn photography and become proficient, efficient, technically skilled and confident then become a licensed professional who offers quality products and doesn’t degradate our profession.

Crap, yes.. I’m sure you do have a lot of “crap”. Let’s emphasize on the definition of, “crap”…
crap
/krap/

Noun

vulgar. Something that is of extremely poor quality.
A losing throw of 2, 3, or 12 in craps.

Verb

vulgar. Defecate.
Make a losing throw at craps.

That sounds like a threat… That _IS_ actually a crime, that you’ve just committed.. Not only is it a crime, but since it’s over the internet, it’s a federal crime.  All she needs to do is go visit a USAO and file a complaint. Crazyness.
