Oh hell yeah. I don’t even care if it was barely more than 80 players that voted. Seeing us bank as number two is sweet.

How do you normally get photos to clients?

Edit: oops, I missed that you already said this in the post.

Who honestly gives any shit about Watson? I wish he’d stop getting any coverage unless it was something talking about him never playing again or him actually getting in trouble for the multiple rapes he committed. Anything short of those, no thanks.

I’m not totally sure what this post is even trying to convey, other than the same sentiment that it feels like new photographers that are trying to be considered the “real deal” try to convey: I’m a photographer and I know what I’m talking about so I say to watch YouTube. Which is just odd.

There are a ton of content creators on YouTube that will provide solid knowledge in their videos even when their videos tend to be a bit ridiculous. Then there are others that provide great tips in most. Some are just great conversations (looking at b&h and adorama, for instance). There’s nothing wrong with watching YouTube photo stuff, at all.

And, despite what so many people on this sub say there’s nothing wrong with McKinnon’s stuff. Some of his work is a bit generic looking (but it’s generic now as so many people have tried to emulate it), but the guy is living his dream - and a life many of us would be very happy to have - and inspires a shit ton of people to go out and shoot. It’s just like it’s the hip and cool thing to hate on the guy, and it’s pretty ridiculous at this point.

In closing, this post is odd and I don’t quite understand what the point of it is or was, but yeah, go shoot your shit and enjoy it.
