Lemmy: don’t use AI; pay artists!
Also Lemmy: this uppity bitch should work for exposure.
I don't see what's wrong with $100-300 I know about five 30 year old women with $5,000 cameras that would jump at the gig as long as it wasn't a full wedding commitment.
I think it's more about the gatekeeping.
I wouldn’t call his reply gatekeeping. He’s kind of just promoting a race to the bottom mentality.
Uber: know how to drive, own a car, insurance, use a cell phone to tell you where to make $12, drive from A-B-C-A, and pay 9 of it back to car maintenance over time.
Photographer: Own camera, insurance, lights, lenses, backdrops, computer, software licenses, photodelivery platform costs, know how to use them. Pack up gear into car, drive to shoot, lug all the gear, setup, shoot, position, pose, pack up all the gear, drive back, stow all the gear, transfer images to computer, Lightroom, cull, Photoshop, color/image/wrinkles/clothing fixes, blinks, smirks, stray hairs, put it into a gallery,
The Uber driver spent 30 minutes
The photographer spent 6-8 hours.
If the photographer is gatekeeping you, hire the Uber driver to take your picture for $12.
