I didn't need a watermark to convince me not to steal them.

I think his camera is physically incapable of getting a face in focus.

Everyone of Mike's portfolio photos has his gigantic logo directly in the middle of them.. so don't even think about stealing them!!

Maybe if he shot less rodeos and more highschool volleyball he could get some kickstarter backers on reddit :pedo:

It's like he chose the photo to show just exactly how bad he could be at this.

You have to admit though, if you were looking for a photographer who could perfectly focus on the right butt cheek of an out-of-frame football player, he's your go-to guy!

So I packed up my Salvador Dali print of two blindfolded dental hygienists trying to make a circle on an Etch-a-Sketch and headed for California.

If I got useable stuff from a pitch-black night high school football game back in 2008 with a rebel xt and 70-200 f/4 this dude has no excuse.

I don't understand how he missed focus and has motion blur in a shot of a little kid walking a horse in midday sunlight. A Rebel on full auto should nail that shot with zero trouble.

Never argue with stupid people, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Hes still got 37 hours and $2443 to go.. might happen. Did you see that for $1000 backers you get:

Pledge $1,000 or more

8x10 Prints for 1 year

I will send you up to 3 8x10s of yourself from every event I shoot of you until the end of 2017

What on earth is happening with that guys hair?

Did he just bring his camera to friends wedding? A lot of those look like the bride and groom and posing for pictures in a different direction.

Based on some of the other pictures in that album he should have given up that fight about 10 years ago because drat dude, babies come out of the womb with more fuzz than that.

Every single one of those photos belongs in this thread too. How desperate would you have to be to pay for garbage like that?

My favourite is the one of the groom facing away from the camera, pissing against that tree.

The groom's hair isn't really the photog's fault, but slapping that big watermark all over the photos that are out-of-focus or show one or both of the people with a dumb look on their faces is entirely the photog's fault.

That's amazing. You'd think that just by chance you'd eventually get a photo that is both in focus and doesn't have the subject pulling an incredibly awkward face, I feel like this guy is intentionally weeding out any decent shots he accidentally takes.

A dude pointed out that if it was hdr, he wouldnt be clipping (mitchel is the commenter)

Hahaha it's called Extreme HDR, I know there is clipping in there, but love the effect just like many other shooters do :) Funny thing is ya mate Mitchell didnt like it and felt the need to bag it... For the record I have a uni degree in photography, worked for NewsLtd for 10 years as a news photographer, and have been freelancing for the last 10 years, including photographing all the biggest rock and metal bands in the world, but what do I know haha...

gently caress. Hdr guy knows a woman at my work, who is very likely to become my boss. I regret calling him out on the fact the effect isnt even consistent in the clouds of the bridge photo.

Atleast I held onto the wiked sik burn of I can see why youve been stuck freelancing for the past decade. Trolling dudes in your own city has consequences

My wife walked in on me laughing and in tears because of that wedding set, then she saw the photos I was laughing at and exclaimed "Why the hell would anybody publish those? They can't be real."

So I showed her the whole "professional" site as proof, then had to explain this thread. Apparently we're all assholes for making fun of the guy and we should all feel bad. But I don't. :smugdog: They are bad photos that somebody potentially paid for, and he should have never posted those in public, especially not in a portfolio.
