Who says it's the camera which determines photo quality?

OP, do you know what the asking price is for the house in photo #1? I'm digging the detached garage.

This is kind of the equivalent of going to a chef's forum and telling everyone about all the money they could be making if they just made bologna sandwiches.

depends on how "hot" the chef model gal is

You certainly have a point.

...the vast majority of regular people will- and do- love (and will pay good money) for photos which focus is not light and color, but the subject itself...

Listen, got an old ailing guitar and I'm not a fine player at all, but you better forget sound and harmony, concentrate on the music! Please call that crowd wanting to pay good money.


PS: Picasso, lack of skill?!?? Do you mean Pablo Picasso? :mrgreen:

I would love to see a new post from the OP as to all of this. 50/50 we never hear from her again, at least in this thread.

Is it hard to believe that expensive gear and technical knowledge is not what makes a photographer, but simple love for a subject coupled with basic feel for light and space- and talent?

Similarly, it's hard to belive that expensive gear and technical knowledge is NOT what makes a racecar driver, or skilled robotic surgeon, or highly trained military pilot.....

Because I bet any Indy Car driver could get on the track facing his peers in their 'expensive gear' cars, while driving a base model KIA and kick some serious ass. It's got nothing to do with the equipment...just like photography.

Well duh. Between taking half-ass snapshots, and rolling around on the bed with all the cash she's generating...who WOULD have the time?

Well according to her website you can make a lot of money with photos sitting on your hard drive! A picture of grass - that's right grass- made 600.00 it's first month!! What an amazing opportunity I HAVE got to do this. All you have to do is literally point and shoot. I knew everyone was dying to buy pictures of my kid! LOL

I disagree with whoever said this post is fail. This post is definitely full of win.

I'm guessing those figures don't include taxes one needs to pay either.

She is a RIP-OFF artist.... PERIOD! If what she says is true, why would she write a book about it.. and generate competition? She should be making a killer living just of of her $hitty shots! She is trying to take advantage of the Hopeful and the Gullible!
