Bad Wedding Photo - Yet another poor use of Photoshop. Why are they in the champagne flutes?

We know that the simulated hood rape is a bad pose, but what is she expecting to accomplish with a pop up flash in full sunlight?

Wouldn't this look beautiful over the fireplace? Not really. An image needs a subject. This one has four.

Bad Wedding Photo - At first glance, the women look like little people. Nothing wrong with little people, but...they're not.

More flash, right? Not really. Too much flash in this image would blowout the highlights in his jacket, and her gown. A high iso setting combined with a fast, large aperture lens, could have saved this. Although it is obvious that his dark complexion, and white jacket is a photographer's nightmare, a good photographer would know how to deal with it.

Ok, besides the pinstripes, and hot pink. Why are they in the shade, when there is, what looks like, beautiful afternoon sun 10 feet behind them?

They were excited that they were able to book Gene Simmons for the reception. More awkward than fun.

Bad Wedding Photo - Couldn't find some perfectly good trees to stand in front of. I don't work with animals.

Wouldn't want to go out with a loaded gun.

Client: Wow, how do you get your colors so vivid? Photographer: "Easy, I take the vivid slider and peg it."

Composite images, where do I start? I start by telling you to check out my Joel Grimes board. THOSE are composites.

I have to admit that there was a time when I removed color from images. I, however, knew how to do it without my subjects looking like blood thirsty zombies.

Classy.
