First of all the shot needs to be really good for someone to bother with stealing it (which I can't see these to tell if they are or not).

But here, since you are so worried about someone stealing your image...

I'm not trying to be a dick but people aren't going to pay for event coverage pictures. At most shows there are a ton of photographers and people can find multiple pictures of their car in the show from numerous photographers.


P.s. there isn't much money to make in automotive photography because of all the competition.

I was thinking about it...
I'm sick of car blogs and other people posting my photos on their facebook pages.
Going to add this sick watermark and maybe people will buy my pictures and i'll become a rich and famous photographer!

Your site is ugly. The buttons and font you picked makes it look like a teenagers blog about frozen pizzas rather than a professionals portfolio. Lose the buttons and change the font to something that says "I'm a professional and this is what I do" rather than "I have lint in my belly button".

You have more to worry about than people stealing your images if that's how you're trying to sell yourself.

holy fucking watermark batman

this is a good watermark:


and this is what your baltimore guy does:


also mr barry, at least people aren't claiming your car as their own right? I mean I could see them trying to pass off your pictures.

in any case its a good sign that your photos are running rampant!

On a serious note to the OP:
You have to work on your photography before you can think of even making a dime. The automotive market is highly saturated with photographers who have no talent and just use their expensive equipment as a means to try and exploit themselves as "photographers". Just shoot for fun and take it all in man, enjoy it. When everything starts coming together, people will come to you and even offer to pay.

Hot car pics are a dime a dozen. I bet I'd find more valuable pics on Google. One might use them as desktops for a few weeks, then move on to the next. I'd be honored if somebody used my pic tbh...compared to some of the great photographers out there.

Breaking News: GolfMKV douches stole mediocre event coverage pictures from this weeks "Cinco De Euro" gathering. The ring of photo-peddling thieves sell the pictures to fund an underground dog fighting, tree chopping, cruel abortion organization. All photographers should now label their work with an obnoxious watermark in order to keep these pictures from destroying society as we know it.
