So this experience is just from how i feel he shows himself online and what i think of his work. I have never worked with him because we don't live near each other, but also i would never hire him based on his work.

I'm not going to post any of his pictures on here to avoid any type of copyright laws or anything.


I will start off on the vibe i get from him from what i've seen him post. I get the feeling that he's cocky, that he thinks he's better than others because he can afford better things for his "photography". He's said a few things that don't really go along with those, but it's still the vibe i get. I get that vibe from a lot of people who think or actually are photographers. Something that i hope i don't come off as if i ever do anything bigger with my own photography.

My biggest problem i have with him is his work. People saying it's so amazing and great, but i don't think it's matches any of that or the amount of cockiness i feel he gives off. Though if people like his work, then i guess that's them but i don't like them. Again not posting his pictures, but i did link above his page with his work for who wants to see it.

He says he's an HDR photographer, which nothing wrong with that, but it doesn't look good on EVERY picture. Looking through his, i find a lot either aren't the best angle or the lighting isn't great or are way over edited. Too bright or too dark, colors being off......i just don't think i see any picture in there that i like how he has it posted. Some have this odd blur to them that is either edited in or was a smudge on the lens.

To his editing, he's got a folder for pictures of other people's that he's edited. I saw him post before that editing is fine as long as they don't come out like an alien....umm....that's how his edits look. a lot of them look very orange, weird blurring to them. One of the pictures has long half the girl's face so white that you can't see like any details besides an eye that looks like it's floating in a white space. Out of his edits, there's only one that i actually like.


I am a photo editor and photographer by hobby, i'm not perfect but i do feel like my work is better than his. It's fine if he happens to just still be learning, but based on how he has his like page, it looks like he charges people. I wouldn't pay for him to take or edit my pictures.

Lastly, i don't mean this to be a bashing post, just my experience on what i've seen him post and seeing his work.
