That is so horrifying. I simply cannot imagine being forced to act the physical manifestation of Absence.

It SAYS in the KORAN to USE the INFIDELS handles and POLES against them in JIHAD, or possibly FALAFEL, which is a SNACK, and therefore ALEX JONES is the TEHINI of the PITA CHIP BOWEL CLEANSE.

Uggh. I hate people like that. They’re completely dismissive of any accusation of sexism until it involves Muslims. Do you know about Elevatorgate?

How much do you want to bet that most of those commenters claim they hate Muslims because of their treatment of women?

I remember when this happened.

I used to manage a wedding venue. Our booking agreement was two pages of pretty simple language basically stating that if you cancel within 3 months of the event your money is 100% forfeit because we won’t be able to sell the venue that close to the date. It’s AMAZING how many times I had to explain to grown-up people…

I feel for you. It seems like every time I turn around there’s another camera coming out. Of course, now that I have myself all equipted with DSLR gear, mirrorless cameras are now the class of camera to get.

The married couple trying to destroy the photog’s career over something this simple and trivial doesn’t surprise me at all. In the least.

100% expected to see a “friend” of mine listed as the couple in this article. They’re currently in court over a similar fee: They got an engagement & wedding package, ended up hating the engagement photos, fired the person, and then demanded their deposit back. The contract was pretty solid though, so I’m pretty…

A contributing factor to why people expect that going apeshit works is how much managers always want to swoop in and be the heroes in customer service situations to avoid a conflict or bad Yelp review. I’m finally OUT of customer service, but in the hotel industry and the insurance industry (the latter probably having…

The level of malice & spite of these people is sickening.

I’ve been following this story on GOMI since it unfolded in January 2015. And even before then via social media, when she was praising the photog for taking amazing wedding pictures. They’re just terrible people.

...went ahead with the lawsuit AND continued to court the press! From my understanding the NBC interview happened after the photographer offered to waive the fee. It seems to me that Neely wanted press for her “beauty” blog more than she was really upset about her photos.

When someone defames a private individual, as the photographer is here (private individual = someone not in government or already famous) with malice, the defamed plaintiff can get punitive damages. This is punishment for bad actions by the defendant — in this case, blatantly setting out to destroy this photographer’s…

Being a mediocre-ish blogger myself (a few thousand a year in sponsorships, but average traffic) at the time the drama originally started, saying Neely was a “successful blogger” is laughable. She got a ton of traffic out of the drama at the beginning, but in much of the blogging community she was known for her awful…

I was a pro photographer for a period of time and this is why I tried to set fixed prices for everything in my contracts. Sure I made less money but I didn’t have issues like this. People are such assholes when it comes to photography - I’ve had portrait clients not like any of the pictures then not want to pay at all

These poor naive wedding newbies. This is how every wedding photographer on Earth operates.

I suppose you could say Moldovan qualifies as an influencer since she has “a large social media following”.

This woman’s name is Neely? A Jacqueline Susann character? (For whom it was a nickname in the first place). I bet she’s a real treat. Yikes.

What a couple of cunts.
