Check this blog out....notice any award winning images?

Wedding Photographer Dallas Photography


Mainly this one:


That image is from Yervant Photography and has had the © stripped from it.

Anyone else have their images showcased and implied as his own?

Wow. The inconsistency of style and quality on the blog should be a GIANT red flag.

Sick Judge Joe Brown on 'em.

Found this via google. Although it says Jerry Ghionis...

Maybe I'm totally wrong and most likely naive, but there's the possibility that the photo studio and the company that put their webpage together did not know better.

But my pragmatic side tells me that they ARE UNSCRUPULOUS THEIFS AND should be taught a lesson.

If you google the phone # on that blog, this person/studio has lots of photography websites.
Probably all with stolen photos....

Yeah I know, I was just using it as another example that it was the Dallas dudes. I was actually searching for the Yervant website.

My work must suck...I never get copied

I think this person is just trying to get good SEO. there is some misspelled words as well as sentences that make no sense, but just have keywords within them....

Yeah, I read all of that and decided to post my comment anyway. -shrug-

I hate to say this but that is the internet folks. Once you put it out there, copyrighted or not, someone is going to copy, paste, cut, steal, alter, etc anything they can get their hands on and it seems these days that there is nothing you can do about it. Which is too bad.

I have seen a lot of nice art, pictures, posters, graphics, etc, copied and used elsewhere including my own business logo and letter head logo.

So I know how it is.
