Used to go by:
Timeless Visions, Peterman Media, Peterman Photography & Video, and Arizona Aerial Photography & Videography

When I first started this investigation I thought that it was just a case of a photographer leaving the placeholder images from the website template Craig is using (note, there’s a lot of photographers who have left these images up, replace them with your own!!!!). The website was published on 11/23/2025 and that’s plenty of time to get the placeholder images off your website.

However, the more I searched the more images came back that were not originally captured by Craig NOR were they in the template. For a photographer who claims to earn over six figures in wedding photography (this article includes stock images © Craig Peterman BTW) and is a director with the WIPA this is absolutely unacceptable. Stock imagery should never be used to represent a photographer’s body of work.

Craig’s position with the WIPA

Even if we’re willing to suspend belief that Craig had no idea the images on his website were not captured by him or his team at some point it becomes too much to dismiss as the same images appear on his Instagram, Facebook, Zola, Wedding Wire etc.

I hit a point where I just started writing on the image what is stock because it’s a LOT. I’m over 100 images in and I just have to call it quits on the sourcing.

I also found this wasn’t the first time Craig has been called out for using stolen images.

Craig Peterman Photography used to go by Peterman Photo & Video and Arizona Aerial Photography & Videography and when he was running the Arizona Aerial Photography & Videography he was accused of stealing photos back in 2020.

And again in 2022 a wedding client left a negative review on Google pointing out the use of stock images so this isn’t a new issue that popped up with a new website template. Of course Craig blamed a social media manager back then. If that were true, wouldn’t you be extra vigilant when it comes to what imagery is posted to your website and claimed to be yours?

PS Facebook Page Discussion

All I want to do is read Iron Flame but I need to get a Substack out and I had a ton of submissions this weekend so I figure I’ll be ‘good’ and do a bit of work before my engagement session and savor Iron Flame instead of burning through it quickly.

With all that being said…

This is a whole ass mess.

I’d say the fast majority of photos in the Real Estate and Food Gallery are stock photos. I couldn’t find original photographers and I didn’t feel like dealing with the mess of trying to find the unlikely original sources. Every single one I clicked was out there on the internet though – often in dozens of places.

So what is below is what I could find the source for in the portrait galleries. All but one photo that I searched in that gallery had a source elsewhere so if it isn’t here and isn’t the one obvious photo, it’s also probably stock or stolen so often it’s hard to find an original source.

Like I said. Whole Ass Mess.

Edited: Added photos from Instagram.

I have a feeling more are stolen in the galleries that I am not finding sources for.   This photographer recently moved from the Kansas City area to Phoenix, AZ and changed names from The Photo Pros to Amorie Photography.

I am still baffled that ANOTHER photographer has taken images from porn sessions and turned them into senior portraits.  WTF HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN MORE THAN ONCE!?

There are hundreds of images between all of these sites.  I posted what I had after 4 hours of working and will add to it as I have time.  I do this with my spare time and for the few donations and bit of ad money I get so sometimes I’m just not going to have the time to source everything, sorry!

Update 04/05/2013 @ 12:30PM

Added more images from baby, maternity, engagement and seniors albums, additional Craigslist (with interesting slant to her advertising, must read!) and Yelp listing.

Update 04/06/2013 @ 10:00AM

Added more images from the website and Facebook.

Update 3/2/2015

Added links to the rebranded company, “Time Through a Lens Photography”  by the same photographer whose galleries are predominantly stock imagery.
