So many swear words came out of my mouth when working on this post.  I’ve had to do a few stretches and take a few breaks from all the digging to do what I can to find the original sources.

I don’t know what is so hard for photographers to grasp but you DO NOT USE OTHER PEOPLE’S WORK TO ADVERTISE FOR SESSIONS.  EVER.

There’s a ton more but I’ve got a headache and my neck is numb so I’m raising the white flag.

I’ve been told I should add this link to all of my posts so if you want to kick me a dollar to help keep this site running (really it just goes to my lawyer lol) click here.  If you want to support this site through Patreon and get early access to blog posts and more click here.

Apparently Xavier thinks he could pass as Jerry Ghionis.  *raises eyebrow*

His instagram is full of suspicious images but the majority aren’t coming up on google, likely from Instagram directly which isn’t often indexed on Google.  Peruse his feed to make sure your image isn’t one he stole.

It’s been a while since we’ve had a photographer that doesn’t show any of their own work appear.  There’s a couple images that MAY be theirs but you’ll be hard pressed to find them in the sea of stolen images.

This photographer duo ran an ad with a stolen image that caught the attention of another photographer who decided to dig into it further.  It was sent to me and low and behold, nothing on this new photographer’s page appears to be their own original work

This photographer even had the gall to post images that they stole to Pinterest as their own original content.

I’ve spent over 4 hours on this post and I’m calling it quits for now.  Keep in mind there’s still 4 more full galleries of stolen images so make sure to peruse the galleries and let me know if you see an image that you recognize or that is your own.

Sorry it’s been a bit quiet around here.  3 double header weekends in less than a month means I’ve been too busy to work on much on the Photo Stealers end.  I’m taking a wee break from busting out editing for busting photographers tonight.

Today’s post is a fun one.  She posted to a Facebook Group asking for CC of an image she actually took.  However a quick pop over to her Facebook Page showed she was using lots of images that aren’t hers.  I had to stop sourcing so I could go back to what actually pays me to work (if you want to support my work here – hit up my Patreon!)  but there’s dozens of images I didn’t source and may add later.

I also love (note that was in sarcasm font) that she often edits the original photographer’s work.   Let’s add some salt to that wound right?

Fucking hell.  I need a cocktail.

When clients start searching for reasons why their images aren’t matching up to their expectations (IF they even get them delivered) you know something is afoot. Something is definitely afoot here.

I’ve been told there’s more images that were up but she’s pulled them when being called out on them.

The reviews out there for her are NOT good.  Don’t fall for her standing behind Jesus and Grace.

Update 10/12/18: Both Lesa /Lisa/Elle and her sister Kayla have weighed in on the Facebook Post about this listing and said I’m crazy and the images were obviously just inspiration.  Then they said they took a class from Amy & Jordan who said she could use the images and didn’t need to credit.  There were a ton of other explanations and excuses.  In the end the stolen images remain and they have not removed them.

So I went to Instagram.

More “inspiration” to be found.
