So this is how it rolls... A couple years ago I shot this editorial for Anthem Magazine (cover and image A) I really dig that story by the way, then a couple of days ago I bump into this other image (B), funny huh? well it looks like someone who worked on the first shoot with me REALLY liked the story and basically reproduced it with some other photographer for Missbehave magazine.
Oh well. I gues it's flattering... but I don't know, it feels weird! whadaya think?

you have got to be kidding me, right? this shot has been done in about every other glam magazine out there at one point or another.

Can someone ensure that the next 'rip' post shows two things that are actually nearly the same? That is all.

He is probably taking a piss..
Do you really think the first photographer that shot that type of pose would be alive today?
- Ambushstudio0
Note that it was the same stylist who did the shoot...
- yes, you said that early, but don't you think its a bit much to think you invented that pose?Meeklo

Not a ripoff, but since it was the same stylist, suspicion is warranted.

I tend to build enforced uniqueness into my model shoots now to raise the bar and make it really hard to copy them without revealing the source material. That last shoot I did I insisted that the model had a leg removed and re-attached to her forehead. In doing so I can now be pretty be sure that anyone emulating the poses we devised must have referenced my original shoot.

I understand the same stylist worked on your shoot, but your assumption only shows that the stylist knows NOTHING about photography, models, poses, or composition. You need to mention that he has lived in a cave since the day it was born, and have never seen (or heard descriptions of ) any type of photography in order to that to be considered a rip. do you know what I'm saying?
if the photos are not exact, as in different model, EXACT EVERYTHING ELSE, (and I mean EVERYTHING, clothes, lens, background, lighting, exposure, etc) then you can't really consider this a rip, claiming it is, will only make your peers nod to your face like you are right, but really showing them you must have an massively huge ego, in order to really believe you came up with that pose.
and I mean this with the best of intentions.
