Whoever said imitation is the most sincere form of flattery did not mean from photographers in their own area! The problem with being a the "bomb diggity", is that many photographers want to try to copy our work. By having a blog and Facebook site for our clients to view and enjoy our work, it also gives access to photographers in our area to look and copy.
We spend good money to educate ourselves by attending conventions and belonging to photography forums where ideas are generated. We know that they're isn't an original idea out there, but the ideas that we are inspired by come from magazines and photographers from other areas. It is annoying that we are trying to do cool and cutting edge senior photography, and a week later we see one of our new ideas tried to be copied by others in our own area. Its very frustrating, but should it seem flattering?
