Initially, I just wanted to be a voice for my friends I\u2019ve met thru working for Indi Collective who had been informing me that they are still on the receiving end of unfair treatment. Well the word got out in a very big way. Once it reached Lauren\u2019s eyes and ears, she began moving in her same slimy ways and pretty much did the work for me. She revealed just how low she would be willing to go to keep Indi Collective looking like a luxury photography brand instead of the gutter company that it is. She is literally outsourcing people from the Philippines, paying as little as $6 an hour to slap on a LUT or a preset and \u201cedit\u201d weddings. And she still somehow couldn\u2019t keep promised delivery times. I feel very satisfied knowing that I allowed couples and photographers a safe space to air out their frustration and outrage about what they\u2019ve been enduring. I am also happy that my actions lit a fire under Lauren\u2019s ass and made her actually have to pay these people that she\u2019s ignored for days, weeks and sometimes months. I am NOT one to be threatened or lied about. I literally had no horse in this race besides wanting to help people. I woke up yesterday morning to a text that in part said that 2 photographers reported The Indi Collective\u2019s instagram account for fraud\/scam and it had been removed. While I personally did not report nor encourage anyone to do anything, everything happens for a reason. I\u2019d love to take this opportunity to say if anyone is getting married and wants to find any of these AMAZING photographers who are so very TALENTED, go check out: CHICAGO\u00a0@elena_usa_photographer\u00a0@moonlight_alchemy_photo\u00a0@alexidabrowskiphoto\u00a0@fabiancisneros_\u00a0@ttolbphotog\u00a0@emmaazanger\u00a0@shvedyphotography\u00a0@good.omen_\u00a0@majomunozph\u00a0@maryrosinaphotography\u00a0CALIFORNIA\u00a0@momentsbymoriel\u00a0@alysearauzphoto\u00a0@chelseastratso\u00a0HAWAII\u00a0@laurenwyliephotography\u00a0#theindicollective #chicagoweddingphotographer #sandiegoweddingphotographer #oahuweddingphotographer #sanfranciscoweddingphotographer"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
