...to your clients. Smash your camera and throw the lens in the trash before you do...

A couple of pictures delivered to the B&G from a self claimed "professional" photog locally. Needless to say, the bride cried for days when she saw this.

I blurred out the faces to protect the innocent, but left the Exif data just for kicks... ;)

Honestly, I wouldn't know how to PP in this style if I tried. hahah :lol:

I didn't believe it either...until I opened them. I almost fell out of my chair!

Some of the indoor pics with flash weren't as bad but a bit blurry. But most of the outdoor ones got crazy with PP'ed.

Something tells me probably not, if the bride cried for days...
different taste is one thing, I can honestly say I have never seen pp'ing like this on any image...not even over the top hdr...there is no rhyme or reason to what was done..no pattern to indicate a thought process..


EOS 6d, 7dMKII, Tokina 11-16, Tokina 16-28, Sigma 70-200mm F/2.8, Sigma 17-50 F/2.8, Canon 24-70mm F/2.8L, Canon 70-200 F/2.8L, Mixed Speedlites and other stuff.

Did the client see any pictures from the photographer prior to booking? What did they look like?
