What happens when photographers get too comfortable online?

In this episode of The Loud Lens, Khandie dives into the most unhinged, out-of-pocket, and jaw-dropping confessions photographers openly admit in Facebook groups, comment sections, and behind-the-scenes industry spaces.

• From leaving weddings early.
• To turning up hungover…
• To openly admitting they hate their clients…

Yes — photographers are really saying this out loud.

This is a confessional-style episode exploring the wild side of photography culture, oversharing, burnout, influencer normalisation, and the behaviours that quietly damage trust between photographers and clients.

Expect dark humour, brutal honesty, and real talk about:

• Photographer confessions and unprofessional behaviour

• Wedding photography red flags clients never see

• Burnout vs accountability in creative businesses

• Boundary issues photographers normalise

• How “relatable content” is eroding industry trust

This episode isn’t about naming names — it’s about recognising patterns, calling out nonsense, and asking why this behaviour keeps getting validated.

⚠️ Content Warning: Strong language, uncomfortable truths, second-hand embarrassment.

Photographers love to say Facebook is dead.

It isn’t.

They’re just using it like Instagram — and that’s the problem.

In this episode of The Loud Lens, photographer, author, and industry speaker Khandie Rees explains how Facebook actually works for photographers, why it’s one of the strongest trust-building platforms available, and how it quietly converts clients when used correctly.

This episode covers:

• Why Facebook is a relationship platform, not a discovery one
• What Facebook reach and interaction really mean
• How trust is built through familiarity and conversation
• Why business pages matter more than you think
• How photographers misuse Facebook groups
• Real examples of Facebook content that works for wedding, family, boudoir, and commercial photographers
• Which Facebook stats actually matter — and which don’t

If Instagram introduces potential clients to you, Facebook often reassures them that you’re the right choice.

This episode explains how — without chasing trends, virality, or burnout.

Evoto’s AI headshot feature sparked intense backlash — not just because of AI, but because of how trust, transparency, and communication were handled.

In this episode of The Loud Lens, Khandie examines publicly visible product features, marketing language, and industry reaction to unpack why photographers felt blindsided — and what this moment reveals about the fragile relationship between tech platforms and creative professionals.

This is not an accusation or an anti-AI rant.
It’s a measured discussion about perception, responsibility, and why how innovation is introduced matters.
