Started out shooting local bands for free because I liked doing it. Everyone invited me to their shows. Started charging ($50) because after some time I got good at that style. People stopped inviting me out to shows.
Every time I know it'll happen. You start charging and all the "friends" you thought you made/we're making through shooting for free disappear. I know it's coming but it still hurts a little when it inevitable does happen.
