So, i have this friend who has been doing photos for me for years and now is currently angry at me after hiring another photography to do some photos for me.
He says he is beyond sick of doing bad photographs that he is embarrassed to have his name attached to, but i don't understand this because I love all the photos he does. He says he rarely gets to shoot in decent lighting with the correct outfits for portraits but i want normal photos. He says all he wants are solid color outfits that complement each other and decent lighting but i dont understand why that matters.
He says he is sick of shooting in bad locations and bad lighting with bad outfits and is mad that i hired another photographer where i shot in what he says in good lighting and good outfits after not wanting do that for him.
He says there is a difference between professional portraits and amateur snapshots but i dont understand why that matters, I want just him to press the button on his good camera?
Does lighting and time of day really make that much of a difference? Sometimes all i need for him to do is press the button on his good camera and he seemed annoyed. Cant he just photoshop the lighting? Id like to pay him but we cant afford to pay him a lot of money like what other photographers would charge. All he wants is decent lighting and correct outfits that he says are distracting to the composition. I dont care about lighting or composition, I just need to be a fly on the wall and press the button on his camera. Why would that make him angry?
Can someone explain why he would be considered some of these photos bad?
Here are two pictures he loves and then there are two pictures he is embarrassed to have his name attached to, can someone explain to me why he would consider the last two pictures as bad photography? I think they look great?!
if someone can explain why the last two pictures would be considered bad photography in a langauge i would understand i would appreciate it.
