fauxtographer

Similar to a actual photographer, but not a real artist. Not to be confused with a simple camera owner.

Often presented as a guy with an expensive camera or photography equipment for the sole intent of taking pictures of scantily-clad beautiful women. Easily identified by cheesy pickup lines, but some are more subtle.

Fauxtog

N. Fo-tawg. Fauxtography: The (fallacious) notion which many attractive co-eds harbor, an undeserved feeling that "I am talented." Unfortunately this feeling is based on the logic that all pretty girls are talented. (Jessica Simpson syndrome)

While this trend is as common as the digital cameras which make it possible, it existed long before point+shoot+post-to-facebook was the new art exhibit. Since the dawn of western civilization young hotties have paraded about with digicams, acoustic guitars, note pads etc. simply to feed their image and unjustly gain a sense of self-worth.
"Guys, check out my homepage, my mom just got me a digital camera, I'm into art now."

"Rate my new album: a collection of shots of trees, portraits, and my cat."

"I just learned to play Weezer's Undone on guitar, let's sing together."

"SLR? What's that?"

Fauxtography

A picture taken for artistic reasons that has become insanely popular but has taken no real skill to take whatsoever.
I just took a grayscale picture of myself looking to the side. I'M A FUCKING ARTISTIC GENIUS!

Dude, that's not photography, that's total fauxtography. Any scene kid on myspace can take a picture like that. That doesn't belong in an artshow.
