Hello there,

I have a proposal for your consideration.

I am having a private event themed SUPERSTARS this Wednesday from 7pm to 11pm at One Degree 15 and am looking for a photography enthusiasts.

Even though you are not paid, we reimburse transportation claims and give you the opportunity to have your work featured on ClubSTOMP - a great opportunity to build your opportunity.

My number is 9*510***, kindly let me know what you think

PS: Do not email me as I will be out tomorrow


Cheers,
Jamie

Looks like someone is trying to get photography services for free.

hmm. my opinion,tat guy doesnt know u. or else he wont put "hello there"
event photography usually costs a good 500 bucks and u arent paid.
he didnt mention which company he is from and where the hell is clubstomp? i dun believe in a single moment tat he can post ur photos on a ST forum. especially when ur not paid, so the rights of photos belongs to u.

and his spelling sucks. what on earth is great opportunity to build on ur opportunity?

ironically, its a "private" event tat the photos will be showed on a "public" website. its very contradictory.

Most likely this is a company D&D and they are looking for a free photographer. Notice ther start with "Hello there" ? Think they have send this out as a mess email to others as well.

Not sure if having your photo on Stomp can be considered as "portfolio" :dunno:

looks dubious, alot of ppl fishing for free services lah, dun do it! but if u do pls let us know how it turns out

 

[allenleonhart]

well. i personally had a few cases of my own too. just to let u know. its sometimes better to not do stuff for free.

1: its a waste of time.
2: u are giving up rights for free
3: i hate ppl who use newbies for free.
4: usually ppl who do free stuff (unless is for buddies etc and friends ) all cant shoot and will tarnish other photographers doing photography as a profession the name.
