I have no technical knowledge.. Now give me money please.

Fotografer

I was discussing photography on another forum, not geared towards photography (the forum itself). It was a discussion on how everyone is getting into photography, making Facebook fan pages and start charging for their photos and call themselves a professional.

This one response stood out to me and honestly really erked me. Please feel free to discuss your opinion on the below quoted statement.

"Bottom Line: If people are stupid enough to hire a photographer without a/looking at their portfolio, it's their loss, and lucky for the "photographer"..."

What do you all feel about the influx in people claiming to be professional photographers? What do you feel about those who skip learning the technical terminology and countless hours you should spend molding your craft? Then go off and charge people for portraits. I'll admit some of these photos look to be about the caliber of a point and shoot. As we all know it's not entirely the camera but what the person does with it that matters. When I say point and shoot I'm just speaking in terms of the finish product quality.
