Poncey photographers.
They're all cunts. All they fucking do is push a button on a machine that does it all for them.
"But we're so arty". Bollocks - cunts the lot of them.

Don't be daft
The actual capturing of the shot may only take the time needed to press a button, but if it's a studio shot you've got all the lighting to set up, and even if it's not, you've still got framing/composition to consider, as well as avoiding flare etc. And then there's post-processing. There's a big technical side, as well as requiring aesthetic sense. You've clearly never tried taking any photos other than holiday snaps.

I didn't bother arguing because this seems so fucking obvious to someone with half a brain

OMG Yeah!
You're so right! Graphic designers are the same - all they do is buy photoshop and a fancy laptop which does all of their work for them.

And builders. All they do is buy boots and bricks... and the house practically builds itself.

Haha
The first bit actually is a commonish misconception, unfortunately. Some people seem outraged by being charged so much for a piece of graphic design, because they think the computer does it all.

Indeed...
Much like this terrible article.

The Tory MP Greg Hands said: “Surely adding two digits doesn’t need to be outsourced at all. Civil servants can do this themselves. Modern graphic design packages surely allow anyone with an average brain to design something as good as, or better than, what we see in front of us here.”

Now if it had been the Olympic 2012 logo, he may have had a point.
I best most b3tans could have farted a better logo than that. It's one of those things that appeals only to other designers.

I dislike all B3ta posters

Hopefully you'll appreciate the irony. Or not.

Idiot...
...there's a real skill to photography that I don't have - owning a camera doesn't mean I'd not book a professional for family portraits or weddings etc.
