- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
Hello everyone!
I am just new in this forum and I do not know the lingo here such as PP, OP, etc.
Anyway, the main photog and me did not have any contract. He hired me over the phone saying he'll pay me $150 per wedding. When I started doing weddings, he said he did not say he's going to pay me $150/wedding but instead $11/hr.
He told me to edit my own photos and give it to him.
I never talk to his clients. I never get to speak with the bride.
It's been over the month since the wedding and was still not paid for it. So I texted the main photog to send me my paycheck. He said he already paid me but I said he still hasn't. Then he texted me that the wedding is not happy with some of her photos being lighter than usual and wants it fixed.
My main photog is a man and I am a woman. My photog boss can't edit the screwed up photos because the bride is lebanese and no man can see her hair except for her husband and family. There. I hope that answers your questions.
That certainly does shed some light on this. Sounds like whoever you were working for is complete scum. Personally, I would walk away from the entire thing and consider it a lesson learned, but I can understand you wanting your money.
I know nothing about your law and don't know if you have some sort of small claims solution, but it sounds like that may be the only way you are ever going to get paid for this gig.
