I agree with this one 400%. I also can't stand it when clients ask for the "reject" images that don't make the first cull.

I had another one, a biker wedding, and upon delivery and to pick up my final payment (50%) they wanted to pay me in drugs. Stranger still, it was the mother of the bride that hired me and wanted me to take the dope in lieu of cash.......
(I held out for the money)........I miss California.......:whistle:
