I'm not sure if this has been chewed to death over in the US but it's just appeared over here. Story of a wedding photog who was sued for $300,000.
Story here :- http://petapixel.com/2014/12/09/gary-fong-account-ridiculous-300000-lawsuit-threat-nelson-tang/

I know (think) it's a one-off but, come on.

I read about that last night. It doesn't cost anything to add on more zeroes.

I read this yesterday, the very definition of a frivolous lawsuit.

I might just buy one of Fong's diffusers just because of his support for this photographer. He seems like a class act.

I'm sure the groom/lawyer now has a greater understanding of the word "karma".

Considering I've never been to a wedding without an official photographer, I have to assume there is the potential for good money in it. But I have read far, far more horror stories on here than success stories. I can't see myself even considering that line of work and my hat is off to the patience and understanding of those who do make a living at it.

OK! Language police time!!!!

"scum bag lawyer" is redundant. :wink:

Apologies to my lawyer friends, but you knew it was coming, didn't you?
