Often times, agencies (whether they’re interactive, advertising or publishing agencies) offer the ol’ “hey, we’ll give you a photo credit” bit, especially those that troll Flickr looking for just the right image. Why do they do it? Because people fall for it.
This firm did the same, and Hailey (who took the call, and who took the photo they were interested in) negotiated to sell it royalty free. That’s my girl.
