<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Your original posting got my dander up, but I held my tongue. However, the fact that you've publicly damned a small business-person doing business honorably - what did you think the deposit was for, if not protection against people like you, who take others' methods of making a living lightly - makes me speak out. HOW DARE YOU. You broke the promise you made when you put down the deposit, and then wanted to be rewarded for breaking that promise. And when you didn't get satisfaction that way, you did your best to harm the poor photographer's business AGAIN. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I apologize to one and all for shouting, and have pity for the children for whom you're making such a very poor example of honorable behavior.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>

<DIV style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN-LEFT: 0px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">Thank you to all for all of your advice regarding the photo shoot deposit. I have not heard back from photographer but I have filed a Ripoff Report. Never knew of such a site until I heard from all of you. The photographer is based in Vermilion, Ohio but uses a studio in Cleveland. He is "Photography by Michael Chevalier", christael photo. He didn't lose any money with my cancellation but yet he was unwilling to even give me 1/2 of my retainer. He had already spent it so he couldn't give it back. I wish that I had put a stop payment on the check but didn't think of it until after it was cashed. Anymore advice would be greatly appreciated. Maybe if he were to hear others opinions he might give in. We'll see only time will tell. Thanks everyone. Also if you know of any local agents my kids are daughter 8 and son 12. <SPAN class=EC_Apple-converted-space> </SPAN><BR> </DIV>
