Ok, so let’s start this off with an amazing start! So I’m drinking with my buddies, you know you neighbourly love. While said neighbourly love drinking and shooting the shit was going on, someone walking by who had known our buddie, let’s call him John, stopped to talk to John, letting us all know that she was having a gender reveal.
Me being being the photographer trying to get my business off the ground and running, asked “do you have a photographer for your reveal?” Because you
Know it’s nice to get professional photos for something like this. She’d had said no and asked if I could do them. I’d said ok!
Now to the good part. She’d asked if I wanted money for the shoot, I’d said no but… BUT.. here it is, she’d have to buy her prints off of my website.
Come to today, she’d let me know set up was at 11:30 in the morning, I like to get early, just in case. So I was there at 11:15-11:20. Alls good right. Wrong, by 12:10 I’d told her I was leaving. She’d called and said that she’d be there in a couple minutes. Ok, so I stayed.
We do amazing photo’s. They’re fabulous, but through out this, she is just being horrible. Saying people are rushing her, she’s yelling at be over the phone to get here.. all I’m thinking is this is fantastic, I just want to go home. I have one of her aunts or friend of the family, I honestly don’t know who she was, was telling me what I need to do next. I’m nearing my point but keep it professional. Finally it’s done, I said that I can send her her photos to go over, but she’d need to get them on my website.
She legit blank faced told me that she can just go to Walmart and get them done.
So I went home pretty much after that. I started downloading them to my phone and started putting my logo over them so they can’t be copyrighted and sent them, then put the originals on my website.
So… AITA for making her buy them off my website?
