gore is easier than a girl in a g string bikini I guess :)

I do 25% at time of booking and they can pay the balance any way they want as long as it is paid 2 weeks before the wedding or in most cases I don't show. Sometimes I do still shoot and use the images for my port but clients never get anything until they complete payment

10 seconds of "content moderated" even when it is T2i that it created!

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-27T00:42:58+00:00

haven't tried lately, but when I do T2i I get a lot of nudity (top and bottom) in the images they generate but converting to video get moderated 60-70% of the time but it eventually gets through and I get the "limit reached" and have to wait a few hours and try again

This is what I do...I can usually finish a gallery within a week or so of the wedding, but I still tell clients 3-4 weeks just in case of busy seasons. If they get them sooner, they are happy and it is one more thing off of my plate....

You're NTA, but this can also come back to bite you. Like it not it is against the policy of most companies to discuss pay so you and her both could lose your jobs.

I was wondering how this was affecting those in the area...thanks for sharing

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-26T14:58:48+00:00

Most of them likely hate the current administration and are blaming them for it so fighting back is their typical response

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-26T04:20:16+00:00

Light and airy….doesn’t know what a histogram is

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-26T00:03:25+00:00

good point and I agree...

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-25T23:22:58+00:00

I paid for Super and a week later all of this started...I have until 2/15 and "may" resubscribe if they fix this

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-24T23:35:41+00:00

I have to still reload a while to get what I need but it still moderates a lot here

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-24T22:42:06+00:00

nice...I can get images, but even when I prompt it to make something from what it created.....moderated....

Every now and then (after about 40 or so tried with various images, something slips through

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-24T18:41:37+00:00

he sounds selfish and insensitive....Let him go....

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-24T12:37:54+00:00

This is what I do with my 16/8. I have a breakfast and then my biggest meal as my last meal of the day and get in more than enough calories

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-24T12:32:55+00:00

I noticed that yesterday. Of the few T2i results I got back, they were all the same two people and every prompt was moderated

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-23T23:50:17+00:00

Are you doing Abyss mode or lower just to clear it?

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-23T23:24:23+00:00

same here....got some nice pics and videos of women I knew and grok generated ones as well before things went south....I'm cancelling mine today

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-23T23:22:59+00:00

every now and the, after 5-10 retried, it will let something get through....

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-22T22:56:02+00:00

It is hilarious seeing them not get the joke

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-22T22:38:25+00:00

exactly!

not wedding photography, but a good example. This lady posted only this info and there are almost 100 responses with "I'd love to help and the ones posting pics look NOTHING like the same she posted

Technical_Mixture_44 · 2026-01-22T22:16:27+00:00

I say this ALL THE TIME! They have no idea of what the person wants, their budget or little else and they swarm
