This media company's "marketing specialist" aggressively downloaded my business logo, private phone…read morenumber, mailing address, and copyright protected photography (I'm a landscape photographer), and created an ad I never asked for or agreed to buy. After saying "no" several times in writing, the accountant in Bend mailed me a bill for the ad they sent to my email and noted it would be printed 15,000 times as well as be in their online version of their Outdoors Magazine. I do not advertise my personal phone number publicly, they had no right in their predatory commercial misappropriation of my business logo and copyright protected photography to try to sell it back to me in an ad and demand payment. Unprofessional predators.

We made a special trip to this gallery because a friend had a show there. We called ahead and spoke…read morewith a nice person (who we later determined was Michael). He verified that our friend's show was still going to be up (we were visiting on the show's final day). Well, do you like black and white photography? Then this is the gallery for you! It's clear as soon as you step in the door how dedicated LightBox is to excellence. It is quiet like a church and gives off a completely "serene" vibe. You feel like you can take all the time you want to look at each piece. No one is going to hurry you or disturb you. When Michael noticed how interested we were he gave us an impromptu viewing of some of the additionally exciting work in the flat file upstairs. Just a completely first-rate experience.

They advertise on the sign selling film, and when asked he only had one option which was 20+year…read moreexpired film and he only sold it in a package of 5. I asked him if he had photos proving it was good, which he dodged and closely explained it was amazing, then I asked again which he laughed and said no. I'm not going to buy 50$+ dollars worth of expired film with no proof it's good. Plus, when asked why he doesn't actually sell film he went on a rant why film has gone up and he refuses to sell it which I thought was odd as he advertises it and if sold he technically wouldn't be loosing money. I then asked where I could get it and he said no where and he doubted stores would have it on this part of the coast. I called Walgreens and Walmart nearby who both carried it, which I drove 7 mins down the road and picked up. It was 12$. It disappointed me I couldn't just pick up at the only camera store in Astoria. Weird hill to die on that he wouldn't carry something that's advertised ON HIS SIGN. Dude had hovering energy and followed me out the store ranting.
