I've had people complain that I didn't retouch their photos. So, I sent them a before picture......crickets LOL!
Now that's the move!
My favorite response 😂🙌🏾
And then them retouching it to a plastic looking face bcoz they think their face is so perfect. lol
Here’s another one: clients posting your final pictures on their socials with some cheap added filters
Omg this is soooo infuriating 😂
Major one
I learned to care less because they paid
When a customer paid for a product it's their to do whatever they wish.
@@sionkaze ofc they CAN. But it is annoying as **** 😂
I can't believe that photo sniping is a thing. The audacity!
It's plain rude not only to the photographer, but to the model as well.
I wouldn’t trust what this girl says about the situation. She’s clearly over exaggerating the situation. It was most likely a tourist taking a wide angle photo, capturing a larger scene which she just so happened to be included in. She doesn’t own the garden. It’s not her property. She has no expectation of privacy, and therefore has no right to tell someone not to take her photo. No permission needed. If she doesn’t like it, she can go home :)
@@alebo0 Dude, I can see from the video, he was totally sniping. Also, I think the model is experienced enough to spot a sniper. She called him out, not the photographer. She (the model) seems to already know their tricks.
There are all kind of creeps out there
It is rude but totally legal. nothing you can do about it when in public space. how ever they can sell those images anywhere or they could be sued by the model or anyone recognized in the photo but they can sell it as art. those are the rules. So next time this happens ask nicely but be sure to know that they are in their right to do it.
I no longer own a photography business, but I used to photograph weddings. My biggest pet peeve was when a family member would follow me around and take pictures behind me with their cell phone or cheap point and shoot. I had a father of the bride once who took pictures over my shoulder of EVERY pose I did with the wedding party. It’s difficult to assert yourself in that situation because you don’t want to offend the bride (client) by upsetting her family. Had I continued my business, I likely would have addressed that scenario in my wedding contract so the client knew ahead of time.
Another pet peeve of mine was when someone would request a special edit of an image that didn’t align with my style. One time I had a bride whose bridesmaids wore coral dresses, and she requested that I edit all the images of the wedding party in black and white with only the coral dresses in color. 🙄🙄🙄 That’s not something I want to put my name on!
Last pet peeve was when someone would try to haggle with me over pricing. I had numerous requests from clients who wanted to alter my services in order to lower the price. The most memorable one was: “What if I purchase a blank memory card for your camera, you take the photos, and then I edit them on my own?” Ma’am WHAT?!
This is whyI tell my friends I don't want to start a photography business or do paid weddings gigs. It not worth it for me and I enjoy it more as a hobby
Are you a businessman or a photographer? Sometimes you have to favor one over the other. The black and white photo with the dress being in color thing is very popular with clients. For some reason they like that look. When clients ask for it, I know photographers will roll their eyes at this and treat it as some sort of creative dictat that prevents them from making their voice heard or some such nonsense. Business thrives by giving the customer what they want. If you won’t do that, then best move on. You chose well
@@aquilifergroup I ended up doing it for them, because you’re right, they are a paying customer. I just didn’t share it on any of social medias. ☺️
@@blcawoodI had someone tell me that the commercially successful photographers Aren’t necessarily the best photographers but they are good business people. The way it was put to me was “ are you a photographer who happens to be a businessman or a businessman who happens to be a photographer?” some of the most talented photographers aren’t able to run successful photo businesses because they are photographers first. What a choice to make. Respect to you for going into the fight
😂
I FEEL THE GEAR JUDGEMENT SO MUCH. I love using and collecting older gear because it's more affordable and still works great, plus it's fun to dunk on gear snobs who are like "a camera from 2013? useless trash" by sharing a banger shot
Sony users be like… 😂
still shooting jobs with a 5d2. (architecture so autofocus not an issue) Not had a complaint...to my face at least
I had a youngish looking guy come up to me during a shoot and try to tell how the model should pose. He then started to move my lights around. I had to pause my shoot to explain to this guy the reason the lights were positioned that way and asked "how he would react to a random person hijacking his shoot and touched his equipment?" He responed with "well, I was just trying to help but if you're gonna be like that!" and then just walked away.
I don't mind people hanging around watching sometimes but damn I would of never done something like that.
That happens to us female photographers all the time. The mansplaining is a serious issue in this field. I can’t tell you the amount of times a man has tried to tell me how to use my own equipment.
@@blcawood And it's usually someone who is half as knowledgeable. Even if I'm doing something wrong I would rather fail and learn than have a random stranger fix the shot for me.
TBH, in 2024, if somebody creeps around a photosoot, I get pissed!! man, it’s not the first time you have seen one in your life… walk away and get a life hahahaha
i do cosplay photography, theres this one photographer that he's at every convention that constantly photo snipes, and will actively get in front of other photographers to shoot or grab the cosplayers (only goes after the girls) and pull them away even when they say they don't want to shoot with him, my blood boils whenever i run into him
There are creepers at every convention though with their cell phone cameras sniping photos. It honestly makes it harder to ask for photos sometimes because people think you’re just another creeper with a camera.
I’ve even tried collaborating with models on photoshoots and they’ll be like nah, but take photos with some guy who barely knows how to operate a camera and is definitely doing it to take photos of cosplay girls.
I’m a professional wedding photographer, my time for doing fun photos is limited, I don’t need to take your photos. I just thought maybe you’d want nice photos for prints and like comic and scifi culture and thought you might be interested. Guess I was wrong. I’m ranting. 😆
My best advice for you is stop shooting at cons. They are basically the worst possible environment for shooting cosplay. Yes it gets you access to a lot of cosplayers but you will never have the opportunity to do any great work at a con that stands out from what every other photographer is doing. Instead use the con to network and plan 1 on 1 shoots someplace else where you have time to actually make good work.
I also shoot at cosplay events and normally for every cosplayer I shoot I will personally ask for permission, and later asked for their IG to tag them back, but some photographers do stand behind me and do some steal shots. Sometimes some photographer actually asked me can he shoot or not. I was like..why ask me? Ask the cosplayer.
Cosplay events are great as it actually brings more new cosplayers.
Thinking from cosplayers point of view, some cosplayers doesn't even get photographed...
So shooting cosplay in events is indeed okay, as long permission is asked, and the cosplayer actually get their picture later on.
what i hate about photography? When you take a photo, show them and they are telling you that your camera takes great photos. it leaves you speechless
Yes!! This is so funny but I totally agree.
Or when they think their automatic point and shoot or phone takes better pictures than your DSLR on manual. ☺️
😂
@Davitzakariashvili When I stop laughing (and my camera is an entry level DSLR) I tell them that I can probably take better photos with their cell phone than they can with my camera. 📷🙂
After one client messed me around and took advantage of me, she threw my work back in my face and said my camera did all the work for me. 😂
My main gripe as an amateur who prefers to share with friends and family are people expecting to post my photos on social media because I took some photos. I dislike social media and prefer not to use it. Sometimes I think Vivian Meier was correct, it's better to be discovered after you are gone.
With digital, you will never be discovered after you're gone. I take a ton of photos and keep them all. Vivian Meier used film, which was expensive, so she took photos sparingly. Nobody's going to want to sort through thousands of my photos. I have five shoeboxes of film snapshots even I don't want to sort through.
I never post my scanned negatives online. I have a mirrorless camera but that's going up for sale shortly as I've never used it apart from negative scanning. I'll replace it with a flatbed scanner. Millions of images go online each day so why add to that digital dung heap? It's only of interest as training data for Large Language Model AI image creation now anyway.
To me photography is about the experience of taking my Large Format camera out for the day and maybe getting one or two nice photographs. Or my Hasselblad, but I still only take maybe three.
for clarification: when you're talking about photosniping, would that include a photo of the entire scene, including model, photographer and setup (lights etc)? That would feel more like street photography to me.
I believe that leans towards documentation since you're not exploiting the entire crews hard work and taking someone else copyright/trademark over it. Photo-sniping is exploitative meanwhile documentation in street-photography, specially those with ethics would usually try and get some type of permission and/or take photos that isn't violating someone human rights.
A note about what you might consider photo sniping: Among the types of photography I do of which is mostly model photography, I also do street photography. The type of street photography where anything I can see is fair game and I don't ask permission. Now that said, if I come across a photographer working with a model, I may shoot that. But I wouldn't be shooting the model as if I was doing a model shoot, I would in this case be shooting a photographer working with a model. I also wouldn't hang around, unless I wished to wait and talk to the photographer, in which case I would most likely back away and lower my camera (because its not my photo shoot).
Perfectly put.
I like this
I see street photographers take pictures of models being photographed because they're documenting the event taking place not stealing your model's looks or your setup. It's a little presumptuous to claim any sort of privacy when you photograph in public.
I was gonna say, is candid photography considered sniping, thus, rude? I've done this before but my focus wasn't on the model, but the scene of people doing a photoshoot
@@themoolag Same! I would think a photographer would see another photographer showing a form of respect for their work by covering the work they're doing by documenting it but apparently portraits in public areas is now considered a "setup" worthy of theft 🤣
I can totally understand your point of view, I don't really think photo-documentary type of photos apply for photo sniping though, since usually it would include the creator and people working on set in the photos. Photo sniping however, there will be situations like the photographer paying for everything, for their own personal project and someone snipes their work. Taking photos of their paid project (not documenting the photographer with their work) then posting it, the photos getting popular over the original creators work (which isn't fair) and this can cause issue with trade marking because the sniper technically stole their trademarked work due to posting it before, which they can claim the rights to etc.
There's also the legal side, which can cause the main photographer to have legal dispute with clients when someone else snipes the work, leaking a planned projected that might have taken ages to prepare, which is also not fair to those that might have created the garments, did the hair and make up technically the whole crew that worked hard on something for someone to just steal.
Last but not least, the models right to refuse...If you're taking photos of someone and they are uncomfortable with you taking it (because you don't have their permission) then it's simply a violation to them as a human being. Yes if you're in public it is likely that you are constantly getting video and photo-bombing people on accident, but you have no-idea what people would do and use when taking a direct photo of you in public...There's a lot of not so nice people in the world specially now that AI is becoming very accessible and with the recent violations of using it to generate explicit images it's an even scarier world out there.... TT_TT
I think at the end of the day it's about ethics, which would be different to everyone.
@@Katfolio I honestly think you read too much into the situation being described. Even if the "model" is the only subject photographed, the only expectation of privacy can truly occur in a private setting and never in a public space. I would venture to state that someone losing the copyright or trademark on a specific photo shoot by someone sniping the image has to be nonexistent as theft of images tends to happen mostly to already published work, so that scenario is just downright imaginary. Not to mention the model refusing to have their image taken in public, again, no expectation of privacy in public.
Very true !!!
My excuse is always wenn a client ask "are these photoshop" I say "I did some color correction". Technical im not lying because I dont use photoshop. (*cough* Lightroom) 😅
my biggest complaint is the client not liking themselves haha. I can only edit so much, and retouch sooo much unitl it is not you.. someone told me "I don't like my nose in any of these" good sis THAT IS YOUR NOSE THO! lol im not a surgeon lol
Omg we are so aligned. I literally just finished filming a video about this. It’s such a rewarding interest but at times I am so over it 😩😩
Can we bring back the photo challenges!? I miss those! Those were so much fun to watch!
To add to the Sniping, how about “Assisted Sniping” (not a term but I’m making it up now lol)
Basically doing a photoshoot with multiple photographers, you setting up a great shot, then them running in every time taking the same shot to take credit for it and posting it before you do from a slightly different angle.
Maybe it’s just me but this is the reason I rarely do photo meets
Photographer 🙌🏾 I hate imposter syndrome, THE AUDACITY that we have to pay for social reach, I hate that there's no interaction after a post (just a like), I hate posting on multiple platforms to get seen....I got more
Great video! Never new sniping was a thing, but in hindsight... I'm not surprised at all.
I photograph local wildlife as a hobby. My customers don't pay, but they also never complain. I like it that way.
I hate that photography is expensive. Even basic gear can be costly. And I hate that I never know if I'm good enough. Even though I'm doing it all for me, I am always unsure.
Just subscribed to your channel. It is very interesting what’s behind the scenes and with the social media posting I get it. Do you have a video where you explain for beginners how to start and especially which cameras to buy?! I want to start this hobby but still don’t know anything about it 😆
I primarily shoot Cosplay at my local cons, and photo sniping is EVERYWHERE.
jeez bro, you cannot expect privacy when someone’s cosplaying at a convention 😂 it’s your own fault
@@alebo0 say that again when you're booked in for a private shoot, or hired by the con and go threw exactly what Jessica said and you'd also be upset.
It was me. I was a sniper once. 25 photographers in a line to get the same shot of their model. I took a shot to get my setting right before so I could move it along.
Hey Jessica, Yup- the realities of being a photographer these days... life is - and I suspect-has always been- hard. But let's take a step back on memory lane. Twenty years ago I was just starting out... not a pro by any means but I knew a few here and there and was part of a photo club- they were all the rage with the promise of learning from the pros 'by doing". Funny enough, this 'learning" or training if you will- was a series of .. intentional and pre-arranged sniping when the pros would get their shots do their job then explain a few things and let us try our hand with our own gear but their model/subject/lighting/ parts of setup and compare afterwards...with a discussion. This has gone on for about five years and I felt I knew enough to start out. Fast forward to three years ago, my sister's wedding. Naturally I wanted to rise to the occasion but- nope, had to play godfather and not the photographer. SO the pros arrive, a team of two, pretty likeable fellows... but the second they pulled their gear out of their bags my heart sunk. Latest gear, no worries, all fine and dandy, but only monster primes of 300 or 500 mm , tripods that could rival anti-aircraft gun pods and lights that would better serve a safari. So I asked- okay, what's all that? Nevermind, we know what we are doing. Yes yes, okay, let's see. So they settle all that at 50 m from the church steps, on the other side of the road.. and they .. go at it. On closer shots, one guy was using a phone and a small old bridge camera (but Leica branded, go figure!), and the other was 'manning the cannons' across the street. Two weeks and 300 $ later, we get a set of wrongly color balanced everything, with the group shots all sickly yellow-green and oversharpened , a few even having distinct (camera) motion blur. We did not sue the clowns- but we had them come back and do it right. Costume repetition and all, everyone was "happy" as can be, but this time we chose the lenses ( all rentals) and they did the work - under supervision. Turns out they COULD do it right, so what gives? Then it turns out, some... organizer had all the wrong idea and seemed to want to impress (or so they said) so they brought the "fiercest"looking gear they could find- but..what about the phone and the old bridge? well- trendy they said. I am still in shock. The worrisome part? they were not amateurs or incapable- after all, they did the -this time proper- work all by themselves- but with the gear we provided, true...
Business is tricky. Photography is an art but sometimes the business part is all some care for. Results be damned.. let the money flow.
I once tried to join a photography club, I was asked what camera gear I had, I was 18 or 19 at the time and could only afford the following, A Lubitel 2 and a Zenit E. I was told there was no place for me there, with those cameras. So yes equipment snobbery is a thing.
Photographers (and/or others) who judge others by what type of gear they use, it says more about THEM than it does about anything else.
The second mirrorless camera became popular on RUclips, mirrorless snobs were born.
The thing I hate most is more about social media than photography itself. It’s damn near impossible to get your work out there using social media now since videos and reels are being pushed instead of images. I’m a photographer, not a videographer, I want to take and post photos, not videos and 20 second clips. It feels like nothing I post on IG gets any attention anymore.
completely agree, after years of carrying this gear around years... have shoulder issues
"There just crispy water bottle pictures" lol! You absolutely have a point though
Yep its so annoying. I gave up my photography, because the statements you made about; people dont think its worth it.😢😢
I hate when doing events, its time for a group shot and 6 or 7 people are in the way with phones to take pictures and they take their time to move or dont move
I had that during a wedding. A relative followed me throughout the whole bridal shooting with his dslr. I felt so uncomfortable. 😅🙈
Snipping is common, but to be fair if it's legal it's fair game. Also, you don't know if it's just street photography. Most likely there are people snipping you with a 200mm or 5x on their iPhone.
I love everything about photography... since I've quit trying to be pro back in 2011.
I've been doing photography for over 10 yrs now.. when i first started i got camera judged hard .. my camera was candy apple red and my lens was a kit lens and i had just started using a DSLR.. anyway i continued and i entered a photo of a car at car show photo contest and my pic won runner-up.. i do my best in encourage new photographers i meet and to tell them never be ashamed of their gear.
When I started, many Aeons ago back in the early days of humanity's evolution I joined a camera club owning an East German Practika MTL 5 SLR when everyone else in the club had Leica's.
I was looked down rather significantly. My camera was an absolute brick I admit, but the main lens I used on it was a Zeiss 50mm 1.8, which I still have and that produced amazing images. It still does and now it's worth far more than it was back then. I used that 'awful' camera for almost 20 years because I couldn't justify replacing it. Those Leica owners probably upgraded lots of times since all they talked about was new gear.
Yes there were far better ones around, but they cost so much and wouldn't produce images that looked any nicer. Once I got older I bought a Nikon F3/HP, I found one that either hadn't been owned or at least used before, no doubt there were plenty of those around.
I'll probably drop 35mm entirely soon in favour of the larger formats I use more.
@@careypridgeon Hah! I've still got one of those!!
1:58 SO WHAT IF I DON'T CARE? THAT PARK IS A PUBLIC AREA!! If you don't like my views about consent and asking permissioni, we just go on with our day.
one ex friend told me, shoot my wedding for 500$ I said no and gave the real price, she said nevermind I'll ask my friend to take photos with her cellphone. She's an ex friend since then
I don’t like when I do deep dives on Google to find images for inspiration that I can build off from… And I tell one person my idea and next thing I know three or four photographers in the area are doing the same stuff. It is highly unlikely that we all went to the same pageor 12 or 15 pages deep in Google defined this stuff.
I agree with it all.
I hate who is "bitching" about what anybody else does.
can you share your export settings for IG?
Agree with every single point. 👍
Yeah i mean just because you have expensive camera gear, doesnt make you a better photographer, it might help your photography a little bit but you're gonna have to work on composition, lighting and just have an eye for cool and aesthetic vision to be good at photography.. like not sure why people have a hard time understanding this
"Crispy Water Bottles!"
Jess, I’d like to see some of your work flow. Like are you just using external hard drives or a NAS? I’ve had people recommend Amazon Photo because you get unlimited storage and it works with RAW formats too.
Ur speaking out of my sould damn, the thing with all the subscriptions makes me sick as well😂🙈
I love her humor.
I had to drop out of my local photography community because it was SO toxic. Judging people's gear, how well their business is ( or isn't), do they speak or attend conferences. It was just to much. Soo much so that I hardly shoot anymore. I have no plans of selling any of my gear and would love to get back into photography like I once was, but I need to continue focusing on my mental health and other responsibilities
Might be annoying but you can’t expect privacy while being in public spaces.
I find it odd that a photographer would complain about sniping...if for no other reason then its always the photographers that champion the notion that as long as it is in a public space they do not need permission to take your photo (at least in the US and many other countries, not sure about Japan) ... I understand why you might not like it, but it does feel a bit hypocrritical,
I should add that I agree with the other points you made ... just not that 1. great video, thanks for making!
In Japan the laws are similar to United States. Shooters like Tatsuo Suzuki and Yusuke Nagata have been photographing people in public areas of Tokyo Metropolitan. Be mindful of signs and commercial premises marked as "private property". Posting is something where it can be a little different. For example, address in Japan may be "mosaiced". Law professionals can ONLY give a guideline with photography laws, and are not designed for client-building relationships. But neither me is a Law Professional.
For "sniping" from a Street Photographer perspective. I try my best to avoid bunching myself with hired photographers by clients. It's true that my creative intent and clients' preference is going to be completely different. If people don't my approach and wants me to DELETE my pictures; I'd ask people to keep moving.
I was also surprised with the sniping point. In the US is legal. If you want privacy do it indoors. Simple.
Personally I think that is more of a modern notion. That wasn't exactly how it was taught to me in school. that's isn't entirely true, if you're are going to use the image for monetary gain. There is a huge grey area. Photography for art vs photography for commercial purposes are usually classified as 2 different things. If one photographer paid out to set up a shoot, even if it is outside, and another photographer comes along and snipes a shot off of it with the intent of using it for commercial purposes. It is essentially stealing. You're stealing from the model and the other artist. Just because you can do it doesn't mean you should.
@@princesspaihana I also made my own rules about “bunching” with other photographers. I do try not to bunch with other photographers unless I am in the same group and having an identical vision. And I am not excusing myself in case that’s what you would reply.
There’s are times I have overstepped people’s comfort. Typically with social cues. But I ensure that I will have my responsibility of posting images of people. You’d often see me photograph strangers and people I do not know without consent.
It’s legal in public area and no expectation of privacy, but overall it’s objection with people around that makes my decision. Legal advice should not define my decision making with making pictures of people.
The diary of a modern photographer. Great video.
I didn't know the term "photographer snipers" or being "sniped" was a thing... the more I know
I stopped uploading to Instagram since other share pages just shares your photo without your consent and you not getting anything.
You should dabble into the world of Doll Photography especially ball jointed dolls and smart dolls!
I took a portrait of the future Miss New York and I found one of my photos on a beauty pageant site. :-/
I've been asked "are these edited?", I said "yes", and that was the end. I think it's just programmed for some people to ask for "edited", not really even understanding what that is.
I 1000% understand the frustration about photo sniping, but unless you're on private property, at a private event, or they're going to use the photo for commercial use, no one has to ask for a photo or ask for permission.
It's terrible etiquette to take photos of someone when they are asking you not to, BUT unless you're about to scrap with someone over photo sniping, they're gonna get that snipe, and there's nothing really to be done.
Everyone has camera these days. It is not like in before 2000s when most people with cameras were heavily invested (financially and emotionally) in the craft.
When they send your photos to a “retoucher” and they massacre your photos and tag you in it.
Omg I hate it when you go to a completely public place where other people have cameras and are already taking photos and then they continue to take photos of the things around them in that public place
I used to love photography until I went to photography school 😂😢
Me too! Where did you go hallmark? 😂 actually my love of it is returning but I don’t do it professionally. I’ve been shooting film just for my happiness
Another 🔥 video from Jess
I love my phone to take pics. Honestly…it gives me the feeling of satisfaction from taking a pic…it’s light and I don’t take it all so seriously anymore!!! I unplugged from all my social media and just don’t care about “making it” as a photographer…why did I go to photography school anyways??
Girl I felt ALL of this 🤣
How often do people steal your work?
Honestly though, if you don't even notice you're getting photosniped: How is it different then, from just being a subject of a street photographer? Sure, there's arguments to be made for whether both constitute a violation of privacy, but if the photographer isn't being intrusive or distracting you from your work, I really don't see the two being different.
Love these points
Hilarious!! Yet sadly true!
My biggest pet hate is people copying your services and undercutting you! So annoying!
I do not agree with your first point about sniping I do a street photography and I taking pictures off everything on the street from a homeless guy to a beautiful model whatever is on the street is valid and legal at least here in the United States I'm just trying create art and documented whatever is on the streets
I also make pictures of PWD and special ed people whenever I see them on the streets
It’s so weird that a professional Photographer like her doesn’t understand that snipping is not a thing. If you’re in public anyone can legally photograph (in most countries). She disappointed me with that point.
Legal yes but annoying yes. When you have invested on a shoot that is only for you then someone joins without permission. What's not to understand about that?
@@4EverBergen it’s in public. It can’t be just for you. What’s there to not understand.
@@4EverBergen it’s in public. It’s not private. Public.
These are all valid!
I'm glad my man looks scary and people don't disrespect him when he is taking photos. He is six foot with blacked out arms and legs. He also has tattoos on his neck and head. I guess these days that you have to look crazy to have people stay away from you.
*I wonder if this happens to those doing Video lmao cause Man I'd be PISSED!!!!!!!!!*
Let’s cry together 🤡🥲
The absolute snobbery about equipiitment
I get that photo sniping is frustrating but if you are in a public place, anyone can take photos of anything. Its just more about being "ethical" rather than you saying thay cant because you dont have authority
Keep fighting the good fight!
i hate it when jess looks at me in the eyes like that 😳
When people want you “to make some sight changes” that are never “slight”
This guy sniped me & a friend in South Carolina and he was being super creepy… i didn’t know there was a term for it!
The thing I HATE about photography: IS HAVING TO ASK FOR PERMISSION to people BEFORE MAKING A PICTURE of them!!!
People telling you what they want to pay then also saying they want all the pics.
Tbh i nevwr knew and never did that photo sniping. Apparently its a thing. Ye its not
Fair and all but dude in a public you can take pictures which is backed by law in so many countries. So saying against it would just harm street photography etc.
But it is fair. It’s more than fair. It’s street photography. For all we know, that guy could have had a 16mm lens, capturing a wide shot of the scene where this RUclips-girl is just one among many.
Artist oil painter at art an art show. I take DSLR photos of the people taking photos of my art without permission. These are not my customers. I don't have to say anything.
It is annoying, but if you are out in a public space shooting and someone else takes a photo of your model, you have little to no recourse. You can plan a shoot, hire a model, have a videographer, and unless you are in a private space with a permit to shoot there, it is legally okay for someone to take an image.
no, it is not. people have a say in whether and by whom they are photographed. if a model agrees to one photographer they absolutely have the right to deny others to take photos of them.
Alas If you’re outside in a public place, anyone can take a picture of you even if we don’t like it
I understand that it is annoying, however complaining about photo snipers or lack of privacy if you choose to shoot in a public space, is you being ridiculous.
At least your not bitter 😮 That being said I agree with you, but photographing in public is hard to stop others from taking pictures. As long as there not selling the images or profiting from them, i don't think there's much that can be done. TikTok is a waist of time IMO. Who would criticize your camera gear, girl you use the best 👍❤. I prefer landscape photography and being in a location where it's just you and nature, but that's even getting harder to do 🏞
Respect ! If I asked and you said no I'm totally OK with that ,Peace
Thank you for the video
Does mother-of-the-groom taking pictures of EVERY formal portrait is n her phone count as sniping??? Because this is my number one thing I hate.
If you are in a public place you are fair game for anybody taking a photo. Get over it.
👏 well said
