Hired a photographer to shoot an event and the photographer delivered shitty pictures but still wanted to get paid.

pic related.
>>
as said, event photographers are literal bottom of the barrel tier. you shouldnt pay him, hes shit and delivered shit.
>>
That grotesque font they used in their watermark should have been the first clue that they were worthless. It's your fault for even hiring them.
>>
What I have to ask is.
Was this a Craigslist shooter, that you wanted to do the gig for cheap?
Did you look at their portfolio if they had one?
>>
Post more of the bad pictures please, we need some humor on this board besides Sugar's threads

Look at the background.

>>3052347
Blown out (overexposed) Sky and water. The boat behind him messes up both his silhouette and the balance of the photo. Probably would be better with the walkway parallel to the horizon.

he must be this shitty on purpose.

Same thing happened with my wedding photographer.

Booked from out of countrt and reviews/sample photos were nice.

But then they showed up wuth a rebel and kit lens, no flash (in a poorly lit reception hall), and shot jpeg.

I was so mad.

It's not something you should pay for.

Mainly for me it's the processing and facial expression. The background would be good but with a bit more bokeh and remove the fucking boat. Also, portrait orientation.
>>
>>3052732
>and shot jpeg
only on /p/
>>
>>3052351
Agree on the boat and stuff but if he pulled down the highlights you would just get a grey sky. He probably liked the white better.

No they were terribly.

I think half of them werent even level, the other half were a blurry mess. Managed to not take a bunch of shots too.

Thankfully we had a ceremony in another country too, and those shots were beautiful.

Jesus, the retard even fucked up something as simple as the text font.
It needs the address underneath it because the first name is completely illegible and doesn't even resemble English.

I was recently hired for a show as well. It was dark as hell and I took like a solid four days to get the photos back to them. It was only 40 pictures too so I only charged the dude $45. I'm not as shit as the person op mentioned though

The whole process of editing photos from one bands set only takes me about two MAYBE three hours. I just had other stuff going on and it took me a while to get around to it.
Show was about an hour long and traveling expenses weren't an issue because they're local.

What do you guys think about this portfolio?

It's from my ex teacher, i recently found it online and since i'm a rookie i'd like to hear more experienced people's opinion


riojastudie dot jimdo dot com
>>
>>3055876
From a technical standpoint his shots are fine, he seems to lack any real artistic vision though, and there's a few portfolio and graphic design rules I think he should reflect on.


The main one that comes to mind is the whole 'less is more thing'
>>
>>3055876

He's got quite a few really good shots (I really dig that last boudoir photo) mixed in with a lot of mediocre photos. His landscapes portfolio is especially messy. Most of those photos would be considered street photography and/or urban landscapes. Also sports isn't his strong suite, either, but he does have some decent shots there as well.

If he'd delete all the crap, his site would be so much better.
>>
>>3052779

Did someone actually pay money for this photo?

Is it *this* easy to make money as a photographer?
>>
>>3055932

as far as getting paid goes, networking, marketing and footwork are more important than actually being able to take good photos
>>
>>3055773
The context makes no sense though. Maybe if it was at night you'd get more of that ~jazz for your soul~ feel, but I doubt the guy could even get a passable shot at night.
>>
>>3055971
maybe the context is just "I play sax and I'm from this place"

At first I kinda felt bad for the guy - I've had gigs (mostly unpaid/voluntary) where /everything had gone wrong, especially with the grain and slow shutter speed to try and cope, but wew.

Feel bad for people investing their time and money in him - clearly it's not a learning experience for him because he's branding it 'professional' and showing it off. Maybe if he was acknowledging it's not great and doing more stuff to learn I'd have more sympathy.

(I'll attached a collage of some pics from a recent job I feel I cocked up on, because why not.)

i dunno about you man, but when my oldest brother got married, they hired a really good photographer to do the shots. I was just starting out, and I knew that I wasn't good enough to do a whole wedding, let alone with my kit at the time. Three years later and I am going to do my other brother's wedding. They are going cheap, and well I am cheap
>>
>>3061148
Even just starting out I hope you took the wedding as an opportunity to still get some practice. Even if only 2 out of every 200 photos you took was worth while it'd still be nice to have gotten a view the protog didn't catch
>>
>>3061150
well I was a groomsman, and drunk, so I was not doing photos. the photographer did get a good photo of me licking a plate clean while I was drunk

Ah, yes the land of people with identity careers.
Leftist cucks pursuing careers that are hip and trendy despite having no skill of the trade.
Later at the Club Deviant they'll tell all the horny roasties about what a trendy photographer they are in a poor effort to hide the fact that they are a nu-male beta cucks.

Man, do I hate Sweden...

I've been photographing for a few weeks now and I still haven't even added any pictures to the Instagram account that I created for this hobby for fear of my shitty beginner snapshots ruining my future shots.
How the fuck is this guy daring enough to put a giant watermark and his website address on these photos?
>>

Because he lives in the real world and not 4chan beta land.

i.e. he is a normal, rational person. You are insecure and a loser.

>No photographer is better than their worst photo in a set.
Actually a photographer is no better than their best photo, right?
>>
>>3063651
Their worst photo is the indication of what they tolerate. Photographers take an endless stream of shitty pictures, but would only share the work they feel is worth sharing. If they are willing to share shit, they feel okay that their work would be judged as shit.
>>
>>3063726
I see what you mean now. I thought you meant the worst picture of their taken pictures, not their shared pictures.But yeah, I agree with you.
>>
>>3060994
he wanted 200 sek/pic which is around 24 dollars/picture.

>>3064546
I wouldnt have paid 24 dollars for this picuture but apparently there are people who are willing to do that.

What lens did you use for this? A 16-35mm 2.8? I shot an event in poor lighting with a 18-140mm 3.5-5.6 today and I hate how it turned out so I'm considering getting a 24-105mm 2.8 for future use

His camera.

>>3064808

Oh dear god he's using a 7D.

7D Mark II. Pretty nice camera but too bad he cant use it.

ACTCHUALLY

The straight definition for a professional is to "profess" if he does anything else than talking he is not a professional. If people reach him for a particular product, then he is not professing, he is creating, manufacturing, etc. Of course professionalism is associated to some traits, that you might have even if you are not a professional. Like responsibility for example.

Now if we go for the meme definition of professional (earning money for your job) he isnt a professional anyways, since it needs 50% of your monthly income to come from photographs to be called semipro and at least 75% to be a pro.

And trust me, this guys works at a factory or some shitty job, scamming retards like OP is a hobby.

In real life confidence and networking goes a long way, and regular people aren't hobbyists who care that much about quality.

Being afraid of putting your photos online is dumb, you can use a handle while you improve your skills and market yourself later.

I would have moved a bit to the right to the boat wasn't poking him in the back, opened the aperture to soften the background, thenbring up the shutter speed to darken everything. If that makes the subject too dark then I would use a flash.

Do true.
A good salesman will sell regardless of what the product is. To run a business you need to sell. That's why the artisans I know suck at their businesses. Some create fabulous products but can't sell for shit. Ergo, shit business.

This is equally true in the photography biz. The customers of that swede's aren't hanging on some obscure Korean image board full of fuck ups and retards.
