Stylistic preferences differ. The important thing is that there were multiple phot choices and the defendant chose that photo as part of the package. So whether it's actually stylistically good or not is a moot point.
I used to work for Lifetouch and I had a parent who HATED every picture I took. During the shoot, they said, "Cant you take a good picture?!" and I said, "I just take the photo, you made the kid."

Her hair has a natural red tinge and the photos weren't edited yet. In the edited photos, the daughter's hair looks exactly as it does in real life. The fuzziness is because the camera focused on her face, not her hands. It was a "vignette" that may or may not have been successful. But, when doing a shoot, not every pose/photo looks perfect. That's why the photographer did so many.

Anyone who shoots professionally knows that there is almost never any photo that doesn't need to be adjusted. Add to that the matter of immaturity, personal taste and irrational vanity and narcissism and you have a perfect storm for conflicts of taste. This is why I NEVER work for others ever. I create work and sell them directly.

I'm an artist and I've dabbled in photography, and I agree with you 100% The photos were beautifully taken, I didn't find any fault in them
The blur in front of the subject is absolutely a desired effect for artistic photography. The pictures are gorgeous IMHO, easy to work out the red by duplicating the layer, lowering the saturation then erasing the lowered saturation layer from the rest of the photo. Love those photos.
It's hard to see JJ and the mom criticize those lovely pictures. Shooting through leaves is common and artistic.

I'm a little biased since I used to do some photography but her hair is gonna depend on lighting since it has so much variation with the blonde shade. Also they have seen her work before it's not a surprise how she does her art to them.

I have done senior portraits for many years. Two observations. One if someone writes you a bad check, as this essentially is, you take it to law enforcement since doing so is committing a fraud. In our jurisdiction the Sheriff will handle it with no hassles on your part. 2) The photographer doesn't need clients like this. They are nasty, mean and hard to deal with. Too many people are happy with what you do for you to have to deal with fools like that.

Who has senior pictures like that ? When I was in high school all the guys had a choice of 3 tuxedo jackets and shirts and ties to put on( which ever fit) for the picture, then you took it off and the next guy put it on , the girls had a choice of 3 formal dresses that they slipped on and when done the next girl put it on.

It depends. At many schools, the ones that are contracted by the school for the yearbook have a more standard/uniform look like you described. However, parents also hire photographers to do photoshoots for upcoming proms, graduations and such. I have been out of high a long time, and my parents paid for a photoshoot when I graduated from high school. Many of my cousins’ parents did too. Have you seen the graduation pictures that have big numbers of the graduation year as props?
I think the pictures are beautiful
Those were beautiful pictures, she has a lovely face and beautiful smile. Only one goes in the yearbook, she had several great ones to choose from.

0:22 The way Byrd looks back at the defendant 🤣 I can see why he wasn't asked to come back for Judy Justice; he always looked like he was ready to quit lol.
My mom took my senior pics and we got them printed at Walgreens. Saved tons of money and they turned out great! 😊
My daughter had 20 different styles/clothes/scenes/poses. I paid $300. The pix were great, many to choose from. No way $1.200.

The pictures are absolutely georgous they look very well she looks beautiful in the red ❤
Judge Judy throwing shade at 03:00 😂
Byrd is so sassy. “That’s what I do” well you need to be ready to do what you do 😂😂
“Don’t you have jeans without holes in them?” 😂 one reason Judge Judy is the most popular TV Judge, she has these moments that make her feel like everyone’s mother, aunt, grandma, sister …
I've been a professional photographer for over 25 years. There is nothing glaringly bad about these photos. I thought they were going to be terrible based on what the mother was claiming but when they finally showed the photos I realized that Mom was just insane.
I’m a photographer. The one where they alleged is blurry is questionable. If she is sharp and the background out of focus, that’s normal and supposed to be that way.
All the photos look great. Shes gorgeous wow ❤
This is a preview of how the mother is going to act, if not worse, when her daughter gets married. Oh gosh can you imagine the hell she’s gonna cause? 😮
Can tell nothing makes that mother happy, not even a nice photo of her daughter.
The poor dad lives with both of them…
The fact that the mother had the audacity to leave the podium to try to give the pictures to the judge says a lot about who she is. 😂
Photos were beautiful!
Vanity is a Mortal Sin
Her daughter is just the most beautiful angel….. the camera must be broken…….🧐🙄
The Karen smile at 2:43 - shudder. Imma have nightmares tonight...

I love to see these peoples opinion about photography, when they don´t understand photography!!!!!
When she is going through the photos, she says “and all of my beauty is taken away and she’s green” so it’s about you and your beauty? What?! Good god Karen!!
My senior pictures back in 1983 where taken at Sears. I only had my picture taken for the year book at the studio.
Why do ppl laugh when they’re getting yelled at?! Looks foolish!
The photo looks fine to me.
Karen printed the emailed pictures and the colors are not going to be correct. The DPI is not the same and when RED is in the picture an inkjet home printer is going to tint everything else. None of the other pictures provided by the photographer had issues with red hair.
I don't get why JJ keeps talking to the plaintiff like she is an amateur photography. She clearly know what she is doing and seems to have a pretty good business model. The defendant is just someone who will never be happy. She feels like her daughter is the most gorgeous being on Earth and will nitpick everything with the photos. Poor dad has to deal with her on a daily basis.
All of the "final" pictures look really good.
A former coworker is a photographer, and we all agree that people like the mom and her family are the absolute WORST types to deal with. Outside of being annoyingly picky about everything, they want the final products “to look at” before paying, and then all of sudden half the work isn’t good enough for them. It’s similar to what I deal with as an artist. Someone wants a drawing specifically, and then when the final piece is revealed, they suddenly decide they practically want the whole piece redone again (e.g. “I like it, but maybe now do the pose like this instead, do these colors, and make me look ???”). Like nah, that’s what you asked for, that’s what you’re paying for, that’s what you’re getting.
They pretend to not like the photos. The photos are what they wanted to have. You cannot decide not to pay in retrospect. They wanted to get it for free.
Photography is art. Art is subjective. Next time do your research before hiring someone.
Judge Judy doesn't understand F-Stops... Those pictures were fine, the "blurry" is fine and extremely common.
"It's not artsy; it just looks like it's wrong." 🤣
I wouldn’t want to be a professional photographer unless I was absolutely top tier. People are very sensitive and critical about pictures for graduaions and weddings. I couldn’t 😅
I wish my senior portraits looked that pretty.
This sounds like a whole waste of money. When we and my sister had seinor pictures our parents didn't pay no professional photographer they had cameras and took our pictures and call it a day.
