A few months ago,I took time out of my jammed packed schedule on a Saturday to take this AWESOME PHOTO for my other job that pays the bills, and all they did was say 'hey thanks' and patted me on the back. I woke up extra early ON A WEEKEND and put a lot of effort into timing this sucker because I knew it was an important image for this company. I didn't get 'no money, no honey, no credit!'
I believe this was the last pro bono job I did besides Para Los Ninos. There has been a theme that has popped up several times this week for me:
No matter how talented you are (in any field), cheap or free labor will always be treated and appreciated as cheap or free labor.

You did a great job with the photo. It sucks that the company said "hey thanks" especially when photography is a field you are pursuing.
Pursuing? I AM a Professional!
I too have been realizing that.. .and it sucks! It only makes us a smarter business person.
