She been waitin’ fo da leafs to pop out.. “Weather”.. I don’t recall when weather has stopped me from shooting photos.. Some of the most dramatic photos I’ve ever seen done have been at night, in the rain, with strobes.. Those photos are sexy as hell.
dont.careParticipant..If you don’t shoot raw, you are definitely: NOT A PHOTOGRAPHER..

dont.careParticipantDo you charge already? if you do, you’re already a pro. Charge a dollar for a photo, you’ve made financial return. Therefore, you’re a pro.

In my opinion, if you like something the day you finish it; come back a week later and see if you have that same feeling.. If you do, don’t change what your doing.. Whatever IS wrong with it, will balance it’s self out over time. 😀
dont.careParticipantThe mere quality, or lack thereof, I should say–is my reasoning. More than likely, someone on your “photo business page”, shared your photos here..
dont.careParticipantI find it highly unlikely anyone is using your work for anything other than examples.. No one here that could be construed as being a regular on this forum, would be claiming your work as their own. Highly unlikely.. As far as not being happy about it; there’s little, very little you can do.
dont.careParticipantEverybody here was defending her.. I thought she was being stabbed in the back, thus the link I posted on her site to bring her here. (Bolejack). Rachel was playing dirty, I hate that shit. Low down, dirty and cut throat. I don’t care how bad of a photographer you are.. Never undermine or defame your competition because you suck and you want to get a leg up in the game. Karma is a bitch and this forum is a good example of it.
dont.careParticipantI went out of my way to make sure you knew about “Rachel”.. I don’t like people that defame others to try to get an edge. I still am not sure if she is from your area; seems as thought she has some personal interest in smearing you.
As far as I know, this site isn’t about depreciating potential photographers, but rather calling out the ones that skip from opening the camera box packaging and going directly to professional.
What’s even more ironic is that she (rachel) can’t even face what she has done and has not responded to any of this. No dignity, no respect, no shame.. Just a pathetic person
dont.careParticipantYour hilarious by posting, “this is scary, critique”. Your photos are scary, haha.. 😛 A good scary, I should imply. I like some of ’em..
I really like this one: http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/406738_495123163871958_260771324_n.jpg — it needs straightened up a bit, but i like that one the most
dont.careParticipantdont.careParticipantsometimes the best way to drive a point into peoples heads and to deter people from doing things is to show them how “real” life is and how mortal they really are. sometimes showing a highschool full of kids photos of bodies in cars after an accident makes a big difference in decisions they make. In the army during BCT and AIT and ever so often we’d be shown what happens to bodies that get hit by rockets or what happens if you’re blown up by IEDs or when your shot.. No one can ever prevent death for when its your time its your time <period> but sometimes you can lessen the exposure of unnecessary death due to stupidity just by showing what actually happens when people don’t pay attention or get drunk and drive or whatever case you have playing with loaded guns without respect from them.. It’s a grizzly reminder, but people need to be reminded they aren’t impervious and in this day in age, most people think they are immortal.. what I find in America is people are too sheltered from reality and lack the obvious perception that they can die.
dont.careParticipantLoL, 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. 😛
dont.careParticipantWow 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
=]
dont.careParticipantSo, I win award for finding fauxtog of this decade ? Tuck was just someone else advertising on my local Craigslist. This is why I say ‘professional’, is a malignant term when used in conjunction with photography. Too many folks using it that don’t exactly meet the standards of what a professional really is or should be.
