Someone got caught and appears to have cleaned up a bit but not entirely. There is more but my allergies are kicking my ass and my eyes are itchy so this is what you get.
This photographer has not only used images that aren’t their original images to promote sessions (mainly weddings) but also has been backing out last minute/no showing due to various reasons, mostly car accidents.
This is another photographer that has been driving in a lot of work with “pay what you can” sessions and really low pricing for weddings at expos.
Yay another photographer who uses others copyrighted works to advertise their mini sessions.
Originally I just messaged the photographers that I found to let them know their images were stolen and wasn’t intending on making a post. Instead of changing the images out for images Darling Memories actually photographed themselves they switched the photos out for different stolen images.

Anyways… I guess I’m back from faux-retirement! I’ve dusted off the blog, Facebook Page and my Patreon if anyone wants to support the fight against copyright infringement.
Not how I planned on spending one of my few Saturdays off this year but here we are. It’s almost somewhat refreshing to get back to photo stealing after dealing with getting scammed a month ago though!
I suspect this photographer has joined some photographer action Facebook and/or Boudoir groups because some of the photos I can’t find online but she has others from the session so she got them somewhere. If you run one of these groups you may want to make sure she isn’t a member.
Since she stole multiple items from a single session I’m posting the first after a bit because it’s a lot of work lol.
As always, there is a huge difference between Alyson’s work and what she’s stolen.
Another day, another mini session thief. This one liked to crop out the watermarks.
Also, do we need to have the conversation about live animals and photography? Depending on your state you must be licensed to handle animals, even if not it’s not a good idea. Rabbits are very fragile and can hurt children with their claws. Don’t be this guy! Stick with stuffed animals. /soapbox

This wall of shame is dedicated to photographers that feel that it's okay to steal others' work and post it as their own. Oh I'm sorry, it's okay to let their "web designer" do it.
