What most don't know is that his wife actually shot a large part of the content he sold. He kept always giving examples "I pay a girl x, I shoot x sets, I sell then x times for x dollars - basically "I am not going to shoot anything for less than $4000 a day or something like that. And I am listening to him and you can plainly see he is broke and makes no money shooting at all. Remember, his business was dead soon after.

I was watching him get excited over a $10.00 sale.... But in the other thread, his defense in the end was "I just wasn't interested in doing business with you and that's why I can't remember you". Our agreement was $2600 per hole, would girls at a time. It wasn't too long after that he was begging for money on this forum.

I don't know his story exactly. I suspect that he got a few content orders in a short period of time and sold a bit online and was able to lease space he had. I think that about that same time, work for him completely dried up and he slowly coasted to a halt. But in his own mind (as he shoes on this forum), he thought he was a world champion photographer deserving $1000.00 plus per hour or something for his time.
The minimum order level on the site was $20. Got a link to where I was begging for money soon after you left? That's a new lie you dreamed up.

Your lies would have some foundation if we went out of business soon after you left.

Do you have any proof of any of this other than we met? Emails, pictures, etc?

I asdked her, my assistant shooters, make up girls, etc. No one remembers you.
