I know that short focal length portraits aren’t considered to be flattering but I actually like the picture of the woman wearing the glasses. Your work is good.
bananaslugsParticipantWow OP , you need to get over yourself. You are not a special snowflake. I bet you have taken plenty of shots that resemble those of other photographers. How would you like it if they accused you of stealing? Your work is quite good but I would never hire a prima donna like you. Photographers like you contribute to the perception/stereotypes of snotty photographers.
bananaslugsParticipantTechnically speaking he’s not very good but he has some interesting ideas, composition, and poses. Not good but not faux either. Like nairbynairb pointed out, he seems to have found a niche photographing something that not many others are doing, as opposed to something like flower photography, which the market is over-saturated with. You could produce fantastic flower pics without ever getting published, but if you do something less common like this guy you can kind of get away with technically mediocre execution.

Fake lens blur filter, selective coloring, out of focus shots, white vignetting, the whole shebang.

I don’t know why people like selective coloring and the tacky glowy/blurry look.
bananaslugsParticipantWow thanks for that post trainwreck! I hadn’t even heard of most of the terms you mentioned in your post. Off to do some serious googling on keystoning, on-axis lighting,angle of incidence, and..

I wasn’t a fan of your photos. The lighting looks harsh in some of your photos and the over vignetting is not flattering. I kind of like the idea in this one but it doesn’t look quite focused enough. http://dklemmphotography.deviantart.com/art/Kids-2-397007827
I’m not a professional though, just a long time Rebel shooter who is trying to learn myself, so I don’t have anything useful to say. Sorry :\ Good luck to you.
bananaslugsParticipantIt looks like he drew the eyeliner with a Sharpee marker.
bananaslugsParticipantThis woman is always doing $99 Groupon deals in my town. Her photos are blurry and terrible!
bananaslugsParticipantIt was a FREE shoot. Granted the photographer did not conduct herself well but your friend shouldn’t have been so demanding and whiny about it in the first place. The photographer probably felt taken advantage of.
bananaslugsParticipantWow, Worst Case Scenario’s reply was rude and not very constructive. I can kind of understand why Lee14k was defensive. The other replies were very useful and constructive though.
