ParticipantPeople should have to pass a licensing test to call themselves photographers.
How about this? http://www.strikeaposestl.com/

Participantha yeah, that roped photo is classic. The family on the train tracks looks like they tried to use the Orton effect. No Bueno.
This one… https://www.facebook.com/jamesandandreaphotography?fref=photo 13.5k likes? really now…
ParticipantI don’t think Monkeying Around is our typical faux.
ParticipantHere’s one. Not the worst by any means but someone on my feed liked one of the photos and I went to the page only to cringe at seeing neon green grass right away. Case in point:
Is it REALLY all that difficult to just bump down the green saturation a bit? She seems to have a handle on editing for the most part otherwise, she should know how to do this.
The huge logo/watermark also turns me off. But go to the website and you’ll see that sessions are “100 dollars” (not $100, I dunno, could be me but just seems unprofessional) and “wedding shoots” are “1000 dollars” but you can secure your date with a $50 deposit, yay!
Adorable kids but the skin tones make me want to shield my eyes. https://www.facebook.com/alainakristinephoto/photos/pcb.383943741771149/383943608437829/?type=1&theater
ParticipantEven so… even without comparing themselves to seasoned photographers, how do they look at their work and say “it is finished” when the sky is purple and the grass is a neon green? How do they think that it’s ok to add huge vignette with everything oof, etc. I mean, you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know that the sky is not purple and the clouds do not have a bright blue outline to them. Just, what the heck!?
ParticipantThose hunting themed ones are especially bad.
ParticipantBleh I don’t know why that posted three times.
Yeah enough to know who she is, she’s been a topic of discussion between myself and a friend of mine who’s a photographer kind of in that same area before.
ParticipantOh wow you found one I’m familiar with… That last one!

ParticipantThe majority of “normal” people do think that just because someone calls themselves a business that they ARE a business and doing everything they’re supposed to be doing. And maybe that’s because they DON’T care, they only want the best price so they don’t care if they go to someone who’s not paying taxes or buying insurance. After all, what are the chances they’ll need that insurance with your shoot and if they do, well that’s their problem right, and it’s their problem if the tax guys come after them, what does the client care? They got a session with disc for $30, they’re done.
ParticipantI think a lot of time they pretend to be free, they are just trying to avoid taxes and insurance and whatnot
