Are You Friends With One Of These Kinds Of Photographers?
I know I am and, I’m personally one of them as well. Actually in today’s Facebook world full of smartphone everybody is a photographer. Maybe I’m not quite as bad as they portray this type of photographer but, I’m close.I had a really good laugh at myself watching this.

i find the topic interesting, too bad it doesn’t load.
Same here. I hate sliders. HATE sliders. If your site doesn’t load instantaneously, don’t even waste my time.
Pretty funny.
I am usually with people who don’t understand why l take so many pictures, or why I want to take a picture. But, then, as we have all gotten older, they are glad l have the pictures that I have taken over the years.
exactly…haha…say, do you have the picture from…..or…that was a great picture….i am happy to have a picture of it…
True…I just posted a photo from 1977 and my old high school buddies were amazed (but not surprised).
Love it!
Yeah. Amazing how that works. Almost as bad as the ‘don’t take my picture’…later on…’where’s my picture?’ guy.
Oh, the picture you DIDN’T want me to take? Oh, I deleted it. Sorry about that. :-/

Photographer’s widow … more like the whole family waiting in the car for us
Here – hold this camera for a minute – I just need to grab another body, super fast telephoto lens, 3 filters, lens hood, another strap, battery, memory card, shutter cable release, and a tripod plate then we can hike to the waterfall.
Ruff, I get tired of waiting on my human. I finish with the scene much earlier than he does. WOOF!
lol
I got number 6, Photogs that repost other peoples work and do give them credit, but solely to get people to look at their page, because they have nothing original to post.
Being a Gear Nerd is ok as long as you have the right gear with you for what and where you are shooting and not the wrong gear. The funny thing is the lady in Gear Nerd is wearing wedge shoes. Not the best shoes for photographing and not the best for walking in the sand.
Nothing’s worse than needing a tripod when you made the decision to go without, or needing a macro lens for a nice, tight shot of a rare species of an albino ladybug. Chance favors the prepared.
Guilty #4. Sad how my non-photography friends don’t want to stand around and wait for me to take pictures.
Sorry. I thought there was an “E” missing after RAP on his shirt hidden by the jacket.
Bwahahahahaha…. OMG!!!
My favorite.. Hey carry the bride across the rocks and pot her on that big rock in front of that water fall….
Yep! Happens everytime when I am trying to tune out the annoying. Asking question what am I doing,AGH!
Holy crap, I know a guy that is all 5!!!!
Oh Yeah, I get to meet them almost every day. Teacher, chatters, copy cats, sell you their photos and the wanna be which wants to be at everyone of your photo events. But I also have been with photographers that are cool and we don’t bother each other on photo events. We sometimes share the difference between the camera brands.
They are a little too good at playing those parts
I actually like the knee pad idea!
I know, right. I have a pair that I need to dig out of storage. I’m going to start using them.
Hate camera phones at wedding. People seem to get in the way.
This is why I don’t do *organized people photography*… even at family events, my mother, or someone, is constantly forcing posed shots. All.The.Time. – omg, it drives me insane.
yeah …. its even worse when YOur sister has you do the shots for her at Easter and doesn’t give you TIME to do them … and is rush rush rush UGH …
Tony Northup and his lovely wife… yeah they tagged some pholks
veiw finder lag….LOL!
Very cute video, thanks!
There are so many ads with “next page” arrows that it just isn’t worth it to try and figure out where to click. Speaking of clicks, it’s a darn shame that articles can’t just be on one page any longer. Click, click, click.. *sigh*
#4, when the husband asks if that’s a new lens, that hit close to home. LOL!!!!!
I LOVE THIS site.
OK – I’m the annoying Teacher….. except not annoying.
One of the worst experiences is working for someone who just bought their first camera and suddenly think they know more than you do…and they shoot only in Auto, somehow, screwing that up, too. I’ve been shooting since 1967, and they’ve been taking “snap shots” for about 2 weeks.
Marketing!
Yes, marketing.
You forgot the photographer that does and shoots everything better than you. Everything they do is right and everything you do is wrong. I have one of those friends. Even my photos being picked up by a state travel magazine weren’t good enough for him. I call this photographer the photosnob.
Yep, mine are in Calendars and the snob did not get any published yet 🙂
What is really frustrating is phone cameras that take simple photos like this. I took this in from of the Home Depot in Pell City, Alabama with a Galaxy 6.
Jason Rosado
Jeda Rodrigues that was pretty funny lol now go work out you lazy bastid
They forgot to mention photogs that hijack
Good 1.
All the above are reason I like to go shooting alone
Amen. Unless I know the person well enough to know it won’t be any of the aforementioned, and more. 😉
That’s hilarious
Robert Doyle did you see this already..it made me laugh all the way through..
those two….
hah, hah! you two crack me up! Great book, by the way.
Yep. I know some of these.
My wife is a photography widow. And I do carry polarizing filters almost all the time. I do have Gary Fong’s lightsphere, but I use the puffer flash attachment far more often. The lightsphere sits in my “other” gear bag which spends 364 days out of 365 at home. Probably because I’m not a gearhead enough to have a good external flash in the first place.
But I do take way to damned many pictures.
Well … for some people. 🙂
It’s missing
#6 Cannon snob
#7 “I have exclusive rights”
Cute 😉 …btw enjoy your stuff
Collin Nichols LOL!
Drôle mais vrai…
This has to be one of the most annoying obnoxious webpages I have ever visited. Total complete garbage. Where do you click. The web has sunk to a new low. I don’t even care anymore. I am done clicking on these idiotic lists. Done.
I nominate this page as the most annoying webpage EVER!!! Bar none.
And auto-start videos…..
Cheers to that… this page has become so consumed in becoming click bait that they’ve forgotten that all we really want is to read the article. This one’s the worst, the article won’t even load because it’s so busy trying to pack along its leaches.
All good reasons to shoot alone.
I am all 5 of these.
Hahahahaha
OMG, I’ve met many of each of these photographers AND am guilty at times myself
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Think Ms Karla knows of a camera holder like this
Oh I can’t wait to read this
I know a #1 for absolute certain.
I was relieved to find I am none of these!
Very funny… “Los Pollos Hermanos”
Too funny!
The worst type of photographers are those who belittle others. Just sayin….
To me they’re the most annoying when their actually just being themselves. Constantly promoting their books and course,,,make me wonder if they actually have any real clients.
Being a single photographer and happy about that is bliss! 🙂
Woof, I don’t see any dog photographers!
What about the people who are constantly shooting sunsets
This is why I shoot alone
It is easy to hide behind your camera and not socialize. That can be a problem also.
Jeeeze. The most annoying humans be they photographers or not are those who take glee in chopping others apart. Man, find a hobby or something.
I love it when strangers come up and want to chat as you are trying to catch something in changing light.
I think im guilty of 4 and 5.
Veronica Chevalier-Clark this was pretty funny, thought you might get a kick out of it.
watch it you get a chance 7 min but its worth it
I def will
“Actually in today’s Facebook world full of smartphone everybody is a photographer.” = Incorrect!
Tawnya Nicole Photography
It is obvious that the makers of this, have NEVER-EVER-EVER shot at a high-profile skateboard competition.
There you will find the ABSOLUTE WORST PHOTOGRAPHERS on earth, surrounding the small handful of actual Professionals on the scene.
lol~
But no one is saying the one who has to get home to enter a contest or edit photos is a terribly annoying person? Because that girl’s role is only passed (probably just equally matched) by the talker..
Yes, very funny.
Yep, been all of those. Sometimes all at once.
A woman at a wedding I was shooting stood next to me for group shots, posed shots, all most everything with her little point and shoot Nikon. Then found she posted them the next day on the brides facebook page and the couple never ordered outside the package proof deal.
Love the Breaking Bad shirt! And hilarious vid!
