Can't Give It Away
:
I am a professional photographer. I regularly photograph a trade show over five days for a major trade magazine . The editors decided to forgo the coverage last year because they did not have the budget. I usually enjoy this work and I have shot this show with them for years. I decided to volunteer to shoot the show for free one day to help out during hard times. However, the editors aid they could not use my free pictures anyway -- there were not enough pages in the magazine to run the photos. There is not enough advertising to support it! I can't give my services away in this economy!
