Marc Adamus and Commercial Fine Art: another hype and LIE filled site you should steer clear of.

Marc Adamus & Commercial Fine Art: just more LIES

Nothing but bullshit: Marc Adamus & Commercial Fine Art

Commercial Fine Art is the latest attempt by scam artist Marc Adamus to cement his dominance in the photography world. Like Lord Sauron in Lord of the Rings, Marc Adamus wills to dominate all photography. 

And he’s not satisifed with a comfortable career that helps him support a wife and kids. That was never Marc’s intention. Marc desperately desires to be famous and well-known. He’s wanted it for years. People who knew him in high school knows that he was always a fame-lusting shit. 

In many ways, Commercial Fine Art is a culmination of Marc’s efforts to dominate photography. It is a project designed to cast Marc Adamus in a respectable light. However, it fails in many ways:

1. It fails to inspire confidence in prospective clients
With the same “me-too” bullshit as so many other sites, the bogus “virtual galleries” that are instantly recognizable as the work of scam artists, and the trumpeting, egotistical delivery, it comes across as an entirely boastful, prideful, and deceitful website. To say nothing of the names that are featured on there.

2. The blog is an utter failure
The Commercial Fine Art blog is an utter failure. Random people will not be attracted to Marc Adamus’ pathetic rationizations for how Photoshop is part of today’s workflow, and no one will be impressed by the fact that the members are simply commenting on each other posts constantly. Blogs are supposed to feature quality material that is exciting to read, not a bunch of re-hashed, self-serving bullshit.

3. Too many members
Apart from the usual, hoary lies we’ve all heard before, like “some of the best photographers in the world”, and so forth, there are too many members on Commercial Fine Art. It’s impossible to keep the operation pointed in a single, focused direction when Marc and whoever else administers it picks up turkeys from all around the world. 

4. The proven Marc Adamus kiss of death
Marc Adamus is a proven killer for any website or blog. Period. Every site he has joined has eventually experienced losses in readership and a long-term trend toward failure. The inclusion of Marc Adamus indicates a preference for bullshit and lying over honesty and real material. Just ask Mountain Trail Photo. They actually ended up closing their blog down entirely after Marc’s egotistical, lie & bullshit filled post that attracted negative reactions from all over the Internet.

5. No actual functionality on the site.
In the end, Commercial Fine Art is no more than one more self-aggrandizing blog. There is no real functionality here. Want to actually buy a print? You’ll still have to go thru the old song & dance of contacting whichever scam artist you want to buy it from. Worse yet, Commercial Fine Art lied and said that they didn’t include any functionality because they “custom prepare” all orders. Yeah, right.

These are just a sample of the many problems with Commercial Fine Art. None should be a surprise. A LIE can only be so big and complicated before it starts to fall apart from its own weight. No amount of window dressing, fancy graphics, or bullshit will sustain lies and dubious statements forever. The public eventually sees right through it. Your best bet is to purchase fine art from a REAL photographer who can give you the service and selection you deserve, without the self-serving bullshit and distasteful, insulting LIES you’ll get from most of the Commercial Fine Art membership. Our verdict: this is a SCAM; pass on this.

Miles Morgan (shithead, thief, and parasite supreme) has ignored the Miles Morgan Ultimatum; the next steps.

The next steps for Miles Morgan.


As you all know, Miles Morgan is a thief, a copyright violator, and completely lacking in shame or critical self-evaluation. You can see more about that here. He has stolen the images of other photographers, meaning to emulate the composition and style of these photographers as closely as possible (a copyright violation and a violation of common courtesy). One of these photographers is Marc Adamus. Now, Marc Adamus is a coward who refuses to protect his copyright. Why? Marc sells a ton of bogus photo tours, which provide a great deal of his income. He’s afraid that if he enforces his copyright, sales of photo tours will dwindle. 

 Anyway, you probably know all that already. Which brings us to the Miles Morgan Ultimatum (available here). We gave Miles Morgan 10 days to remove stolen images from Getty microstock and stop selling prints on his website. Predictably, he ignored us. That’s not surprising. When push comes to shove, many of the scum we write about here quietly continue doing whatever they were doing that drew our attention, and hoping that we’ll just go away. 

But we promised pain & suffering for Miles Morgan, and we intend to deliver. The main driver behind Miles Morgan’ ability to steal other peoples’ work and throw it away for pennies is his well-paying job. Now, like most assholes, Miles Morgan has no problem drawing 6 figures from his line of work, while doing everything possible to undermine someone else’s line of work. Such is hypocrisy and lack of empathy. Go try telling Miles to start working for, say, $16,000 (about 10% of what he probably earns now) a year. He’ll look at you as if you’re crazy. But he’s got no problem stealing someone else’s images and throwing them away for 10% or less of what they originally cost. 

So Miles Morgan needs to lose his cushy job at United Airlines. That will deliver a solid lesson to this scum and piece of shit. It will teach him to respect other peoples’ jobs and careers. With that in mind, the next week will see new websites launched to deal with Miles Morgan and United Airlines. It’s time for the whole public to know about this imbecile.
