With that info it would appear that the alighment was in spec (or very close) and the tires are visibly at an angle with the bottm of the tire sitting further out than the top. Using a level it appears that the top of the tire is in about 0.6-0.8" off vertical level.
first off, if your car is lowered, it was done with springs. second, the camber spec is NOT -1.00 -> -2.00, it's -1.33 -> -1.9.

-1.6 -> -1.7 is a good goal. your left and right settings are VERY different from one another. they should be nearly the same. your toe difference is significant, too. the shop did a crappy job with your car. take it back and complain.
