wild-life photographer

A party photographer. This artist documents people, usually young privileged white kids, and their wild lifestyles. Classic photographers who fit this category are Larry Clark, director of KIDS. A contemporary artist would be the Cobrasnake.
The preferred format for this type of photography is digital, while polaroid appeals to a more specific/pretentious genre of wild lifers. Also, the portfolio's of wild-life photographers are usually their facebook pages.

Me: She's doesn't photograph animals, she photographs PARTY ANIMALS!

Photographer

An Artist that takes pictures for a living. Photographers are able to get amazing shots through Candid, Pin-ups, Portraits, ect.

People do call themselves photographers even though they take blurry, meaningless, photographs. These people ruin a great form of art. These people normally can not take critiques for their life, even when they ask for it.
Person 1: Look at this photo I just took! I'm such a good Photographer!

Person 2: This is horrible! This has no meaning let alone any definition! You are no photographer.

Other example

Person 1: I'd love some feed back on my photography.

Person 2: First off, this picture is way to burry. I can't tell what's even in this picture. Also the light is extremely yellow, so I'm guessing this was taken inside at night.

Person 1: I'M A GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER!! MY MOM TELLS ME I'M THE BEST!!

Person 3: Lolz you asked for critique

Copycat photographer

A person with a camera who has no unique perspective on the world and no artistic style of their own. They fanboy their favorite photographers without ever giving them credit to look for inspiration for their next "photoshoot." They are always 5 steps behind but as annoying as Peter Pan's shadow. Typical of Instagram photographers aged 16-25. They eventually grow out of this stage when people realize what a phony they are or they die of anal bleeding from being so far up their own ass.
"wow what a great copycat photographer. This reminds me of a shittier version of this person's work."

"Bust out those fairy lights. I'm a copycat photographer ."

"Wow mark I love this photo I think you have the potential to be a future great photographer when you stop being a copycat photographer ."
