In case you've been wondering, Gameface is still not paying photographers, nor are they honoring any recent agreements that include payment within X days.
Life circumstances changed for the better recently (got engaged!), so I decided to give Gameface a go in hopes that they indeed had turned a new leaf, and so that I could help contribute to the wedding savings fund.
Shot an event in mid July and two events in early August. I did not get paid upfront (unfortunately), but I did manage to get net-45 payment in writing from Pattianne. Surprise, surprise - they are past due on the first deadline, and I expect them to follow suit on the payments that are due within a few days. Between shoot time/guarantees, as well as mileage reimbursement, I'm owed a little under $1800.
Any inquiries about payment have either been met with total silence, the stock response from Josh, or some degree of "oh, I'm sorry, I don't handle payments you'll have to contact David about that..." I've indicated to GFM several times that I am willing to work with them if they can offer me some idea of a concrete payment timeline and adhere to that, but I can't wait indefinitely for payment. Again, I've been met with silence from David, or "sorry, I can't process payments."
Fortunately for me, I am local to Boston. So - legal action will be in the works if I hear nothing of use by the final payment deadline.
I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about my situation, and if it comes down to a court case I will absolutely report back with how that goes. ...Show more →
I'm still getting emails about really short notice, far away photography jobs, but I'm starting to wonder if they've finally gone belly-up. Their social media pages have been inactive since March (except for one tweet a couple weeks ago) and the "photographers only" Facebook group has been closed and archived.
