You never gave your description of what it is you consider a GWC. There are numerous definitions floating around. At any rate, I'm curious how I come across.

Becoming a GWC is not something you wish to become. Is it? Poor lighting. Bad composition. No connection with model. Bad background. Bad or no post work where it's obviously necessary. Poorly done cliche work. And I stress poorly. I love well done cliches. Bad snapshots. And I stress bad, here, too. I love most snapshots. And, a well done snapshot portfolio is a thing of beauty. I can read between the lines, and so can everyone else. You can tell if it's a bad snapshot, or a work of snapshot "art." Not so obvious answer is: Work that is well done, but looks as though the only reason the shot was taken was to get into the models pants, successfully or otherwise. Conclusion. A portfolio of images that scream to the viewer, "I'm only here to shoot cuties who I plan on spanking to later. With or without clothes." A poorly executed art or glamour shot does not qualify as GWC work. Implied intent of photographer, which is completely up to the viewer, since the photographer cannot explain themselves, is what we're critiquing here.

If there's spanking involved, I just might want to dip my toe in the water. Are there introductory courses for this? And believe me, I can do the cliches with the worst of 'em...

Let me know your opinion of my port. If you don't consider me a GWC please let me know what steps I should take to become one.

No, I don't want to be considered a GWC. That was said tongue-in-cheek. Charles West wrote:
