While scouring for information on another issue I came across this. Definately conduct of which you would not want to be associated. Interesting non-fiction reading with the good guys winning in the end.
LOL, I actually had some family portraits done by that guy about a dozen years ago. Honestly, the work was good, but his sales tactics were less than honorable. The behavior detailed in the court document doesn't surprise me at all.

I was gonna say, he might be a good photographer, just crooked. ;-)
I would hope so too, those weddings were from the mid '90's and the appeal was from 2004. My guess would be that he surrendered the pictures as the court ordered. I found that through a google search, and just after posting here I found a thread on another board referencing it. I am not sure if it has previously been discussed here. If so my apologies for digging it up again.
I was just impressed because it is a very good read on what a consumer can be on the look out for while shopping for a professional wedding photographer. Making sure they know all the conditions and what to expect in the end.

Good photography + Dishonest (Bad) service = Bad photographer... taking good photographs isn't the only measure of good photographer
Interesting--- I opened the link no problem the first time, and now it asks for a password. Maybe you only get one hit at it, or there is a limited number of free hits per day there.
That was quite a scam he was pulling off, and at a time when people are very vulnerable. The photographer got off light in my opinion.
and 2 months later sued by another couple the court slaps the photographer with $15,000 punitive damages!
Hooray for customers who stand up for their rights!

Wow, Roob was hit with a grand total bill of $22,057 dollars for trying to scam one client. I sure hope he's learned his lesson by this time. Between with all the lawsuits I'd think he'd be broke by now.
