I even got as far as looking at a few of the wedding shots... omg! Noisenoisenoise, tilted horizons, far too much DOF, awful lighting... not only do they look like they were shot with his cellphone but after he's had several too many drinks.

I can't believe people actually think this is worth paying for :(

Btw, did anyone make it to his blog?

Yes, I did..... in a trance of morbid fascination.

It's like a bad accident..... you really don't want to look at it, but you just can't help yourself.

I keep waiting for someone to jump out and say boo and hahaha, it was all a big joke!

Wow he gives lessons! Oh happy day!

And the price list...
Packages go to $10,000 and then those following are priced with "A$K". Umm, I'd rather not, thanks :)

LOL, those are some great quality shots!! I love the one of the bride with her eyes closed. I also love the reasons why we shouldn't go with a photographer who shoots digital. Thanks for the valuable info ;)

I'm amazed that he dares show Stephen Rudd as his mentor. He's in a completely different class. Stephen's websites is an absolute joy with some outstanding wedding photography.

So with a mentor like that, where did this guy go wrong?!? Or is this all just a big April Fool's joke?

04/16/2008 09:09:51 PM · #33
Maybe if he read someone's site and learned anything from it he's calling him a mentor?
Just like the one who called her dpc ribboner a winner of an international photography competition. I guess it's not a lie, just a tad misleading?

I dared to venture into the blog. It's just more photos/videos of bad photos. The very last one that says something about the olimpic, actually is the only redeaming quality so far.

I had to browse several DPCers' websites just get that bad taste out of my mouth and restore my faith in humanity.

does he drink or take crack or something.

hardly anything was in focus, for all thing holy and rightous, someone take his phone away from him

Ha - that made my brain curdle. Did you read the blog?

Just so you know - it does not get any better.

I still think the entire thing is a joke from Slippy.
04/16/2008 09:46:30 PM · #39
he has a combover too

this has to be a slippy thing, NO ONE could be that bad at photography. Even my children take more in focus pictures than that

2. We have no students, no part-timers in our Studio only full time pros.

But clearly no full time pro web site developers.

Come on people, give this guy some credit. His business is clearly a good tax write-off scheme. :P

Note to self: Cancel destination wedding plans for Toronto

Found another photography site that is stating that they are in no way connected and asking to have his link removed from Cinderella. I didn't see the link there, but I wouldn't want any connection either!

Member of WEVAI- well, it's actually called WEVA and I could be a member in two minutes if I wanted to spend $185

What is LPWPO?

"Ph.D. - Doctor of science and art"? Then again, he might have gotten it from somewhere like here.

He keeps mentioning all the awards, but the only link to awards takes you to the ad for his seminar. What are the awards for? From whom?

Oh, and he says he's a Master Photographer, but he's not a member of the Master Photographer's Association.

Where are the client testimonials?

Man, this guy is scary...

(can you tell I'm bored? :) )

Words don't suffice.... Julia & Samiel

Unbelievable.

I've always been frightened to death of doing weddings, and you guys that actually do this for a living, have my total respect and admiration.

But this guy is beginning to give me a little confidence :D

Apparently red eye and white balance mean nothing when you are a master...lol

I'm tempted to email him and ask for contacts of satisfied customers, along with a few questions on credentials. After all, I might be interested in hiring him!
