Phautograph 

A term coined from 'photo' + 'autograph', meaning, a photograph which has a signature in it.

Photography literaly means 'light writing'.

In a phautograph, the photographer uses a light to write his / her name, using a technique in which exposures are made usually at night or in a darkened room by moving a hand-held light source.

It will be a mirror image of course, and can be flipped horizontally to be read.

Phautographs are literally photographic-autographs, for people wishing to leave their signature in their photos!

photographerspeople 

A typo in a mistake-ridden rejection email sent to over 3,000 photojournalists who applied for the 2020 New York Times Portfolio Review. A common phrase to refer to a photojournalist.

Damn, the New York Times really rejected thousands of photographerspeople from their annual portfolio review.

super photography 

The special type of photography needed to capture the images of pandas that are covering their eyes with their paws.

"Hey, man, you ever seen a panda covering his eyes with his paws?"
"..."
"Yeah, that's right. Me neither."
"Well, I've seen PICTURES of pandas covering their eyes with their paws"
"Yeah, but that was using super photography! You wouldn't be able to see them in real life."
"I guess you're right, as usual. Next time I'll be sure to listen to you the FIRST time."

Photographer 

Term often misused to describe a "Camera Owner."

Photographer should define to individuals using cameras who are dedicated, show some level of skill, talent, or expertise, and usually persist in taking pictures for extended periods of their life.

Buy a piano you aren't automatically a pianist.
Buy a plane and you aren't automatically a pilot.
Buy a camera and you're a photographer.

Look I just got this camera at a garage sale, say cheese, I'll be your photographer.

Dude, you're just a camera owner... take the lens cap off... you've got a long way to go before you're a real photographer.

Soccer Mom Photographer 

The slippery slope of becoming a wannabe "Pro Photographer" that starts with the rule of 1 in 1,000.

With the advent of digital slr cameras for under $500 every mom with a camera takes 1,000 pictures of their child, 1 of those pictures is pretty good and when shown to a friend or family member she hears the golden words "that shot is great...you have a real knack for photography" and so the journey begins.

Without any inkling of ISO, shutter speed, aperture, color balance, lighting, composition...any thought at all (AUTO EVERYTHING) mom thinks she has actual talent.

Through the marketing avenues of friends she books a few gigs shooting babies on bedsheets with gerber daisies, wearing funny colorful hats, hanging in cheese cloth, hands shaped in the form of hearts on expecting bellies, bad lighting, composition and exposure, but the ability to "sell it as art" since she's now a pro shooter.

1.) Images way to photoshopped, skintones are blown out, yellow, way to saturated.

2.) Won't give you a receipt since hubby is the bread winner and doesn't claim her income, it's tax free money under the table.

3.) Uses pirated photoshop.

4.) All the comments on their "mommy photo blog" are posted by the same 10 people every post with generic comments like "OMG, SO CUTE!!!!" or "Lisa, you are SO talented, OMG!!!" It's pretty much a must to have multiple exclamation points OMG! All comments must be dripping with unbelievable back patting ooze.

How was your session? I forgot all of my equipment at the studio so I just soccer mom'd it.

Wow, uuum, those images are really something? Yeah, I went to a soccer mom photographer. We didn't have the money for a professional photographer.

Those pictures look like my mom took them! That's because we used a soccer mom photographer.
