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!

photography

The process of taking photos.
Apparently, if you want to get anywhere in the photo industry, you must only take "vintage" pictures of a skinny girl in converse, flowers, converse, two emo boys kissing, more converse, a self portrait with terrible angles or a decrepit unused building.
Did i forget something? Ahh yes...more converse! Add some stars/hearts and song lyrics by dashboard confessional to really give it some oomph.

Now just put them on your myspace or deviantart and watch the compliments roll in! Now all you have to do is wait for some business moguls to spot your obvious talent and hire you straightaway. Because you so are a 'photographer'.
xXbLaCK_heaRtXx just added some photos onto their deviantart. It's all a bunch of sunsets, dying trees and brand spanking new converse sitting on disused train tracks.

"Ooh, look! Here's one of him lying on the tracks! And he's even put a heart and sparkles in the corner!"

"Soooo deep and artistic!" *nods*

Feel free to copy the following paragraph and put it on as many emo/scene/myspace pages you can find who commit said atrocity:

In real life, turning up the exposure on a portrait so much you barely see the person's features anymore is not advised in photography. Really, you're not supposed to do it. You're not a photographer! Get over it!
