shall I go on????

 

and yeah i put my logo on that ONE product shot cause its online.  i shot HUNDREDS (if not a thousand) of watches for them.  they were published in catalogues, posters etc.  its a perfect image, you wont find anything wrong with it. obviously the images i catalogued for the company didnt have a logo, they conformed to their specs.

 

I dont know why you insist that i was paid for these shoots.  i wasnt.  never said i was.  i get paid for other shoots (music videos, product work,  but all the girls in my port was trade for time and photos because i have to start out somewhere.  thats how people get better at what they do.  at least soaringturkey gave me actual things to focus on.  idk how i have anything to do with her nails being consistant… talk to her manicurist about that.  she had TONS of make up on… when i first meet her i almost left because her in real life is NOTHING like her photos.  trust me, i touched them up a lot just to get them to not look so cakey and rough.

if i had edited more you probably would have ripped me apart for over editing them.  youll always find something to bash people about.  but i really dont care, i was expecting it from an anonymous site created to bash peoples work, which c’mon… you can’t even compare mine to the shit on here.  yeah i know im not a professional, i dont claim to be.  i know i am not even great but i think im decent and with more work, more practice, more shoots and more models to work with i will get better.

maybe you didnt look through my port all the way but its quite broad.  I have a product shot (they paid me very well) a portrait of a latino hip hop artist from my PAID shoot for his album.  I have behind the scenes shots from working (yes, “working”, as in I got paid) at a music video.  I have PIAD work I shot for Krave Girls.  I have younger girls in age appropriate attire and I have some shots of older women in more edgy shots, but I dont see any photos where the girls look uncomfortable.  A lot of them have only modeled a few times and like anything,it takes practice and its far more difficult than one would imagine, so yeah, some of the shots the girls dont have the victoria secret confidence or the “look” but thats the whole point of BUILDING a port and working with as many people as possible, both ways, for models and photographers.  practice is practice and fundamentally it doesnt matter how attractive the subject is.  You just bashed the girls and skipped over the whole other, MORE IMPORTANT aspect of shooting, the QUALITY of the image.  The use of light and exposures and angles and composition is far more important the subject itself.  Instead of just trash talking, how about you give me technical pointers if my work is that horrible.  how can i better the quality of the photograph.

post your work?  im curious of your credibility….

her lawyers?? ha  good luck with that, they’ll see that this fauxtog probably doesnt even have a business license let alone paying taxes.

 

besides, there is nothing more unprofessional than typos and just plain out mispelled words like “their” instead of “there” and “your” instead of “you’re”

 

and then they go on to say, i’m just a hobbyist not a professional… then WHY would you CHARGE for your “services”

 

I partly blame nikon and canon for this… they make too many cheapo “pro” looking cameras that are way too easy to use and look nice to the non photography  world but in reality suck…  too much crap equipment and even crappier people using it
