This isn’t a hate fest on amateur photographers — we all start somewhere. But some amateurs? They just can’t be told. They leap into pro work without the skills, refuse critique, and confuse mates’ compliments with client-level quality. In this episode, I dig into the psychology behind it — from the Dunning–Kruger effect to social media dopamine hits, and even why some men can’t handle being corrected by women in this industry.

If you’ve ever wondered why some photographers crash and burn, or how arrogance drags the whole industry down, this is the blunt truth you need to hear. And if you’re an amateur who listens, learns, and works hard — don’t worry, this isn’t about you. It’s about the ones who think they’re pros before they’re ready
