Yep that’s the exact balcony then.
How fun.
Thanks for the kind words Anthony

Was that activity at Noah’s? It looks like the balcony that I was doing photography on for a stake activity we had on Halloween night. Thanks for being such a good example in all you do as a photographer, and a good person in the community Scott! I agree with your views and I think you have a good perspective on it all!

So I have to admit I really didn’t read the blog much, but those girls are beautiful. You’re lucky to have only done a free photo shoot. I’m sure after talking to them I’d also be out a pony too.

“Never” is a strong word… but the essence remains the same… the reason for the quote.
The hope is to understand the meaning and act well our part as the giver and the receiver.

Thanks for the post Scott. I’ve heard to either, “work for free, or for full price. Never for cheap.” After reading this, it makes more sense to me.

When someone works for cheap as a gift it doesn’t work, they’re devaluing their work and it’s hardly ever appreciated as a gift. It’s almost the same as when we use a coupon to a restaurant, we never see it as a “gift” from the restaurant or store.
