@iambrookefox for full πΈ set or DM me π STORYTIME: This collaborator and I decided to part ways after a misunderstanding. I was left in the impression that we would credit our work(tag each other) upon sharing content. Which they didnβt do. They started sharing content without tagging me and I happened to see it and called them out on it. They denied ever agreeing to this and threatened to withhold the content they had yet to deliver. Keep in mind that these agreement are all verbal contract and instagram DMs. I remember being very clear and vocal about it, even a little too much, because this is not the first time something like this happens to me.
I still have a full shoot (20-30 pictures, gun to my head) out there that I parted with. A project very close to my heart, very early in my career. The photographer took a lot of time before giving me the content ( always came up with excuses) and then started threatening me by withholding the content. One day it escalated when I finally demanded for the pictures, I was meeting with people to help me with my online business and I needed the product of our collaboration for my portfolio. He called me to scream at me. I was shaking. I bursted into tears as soon as the call ended. This canβt be happening. I trusted the wrong people, again. I chose my peace and decided to part ways. I was in no shape or form to pursue this legally. Timeline wise I am a couple of weeks away from calling suicide hotline. Everything has been closed for months, I was running out of money and options and I was all alone. I figured it out obviously, or else I wouldnβt be writing about it now.
Long story short: Iβm way too damn proud of these unedited pictures. This is my art, my truth. A way for me to heal, spread awareness and share the process as Iβm figuring it out. Radical transparency, opportunity for growth and connection #sharetheload
If ever you see some photography art somewhere in a house or on the internet, yes, it is I, laying over a humungous tilted tree roots, yes, naked. It was a glorious shoot, and even if Iβll probably never see those pictures again, I want to remember it fondly. π€
Donβt take anything personally
Be immune to others opinions
What others say and what do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you wonβt be victim of needless suffering.
