Eran Salu Business Leader Media Small claims court


I've had my own studio for almost 15 years and never had to take anyone to court to get paid, but I guess times have changed. I had a great relationship with Business Leader Magazine for the past 7 years, but in 2007 the publications ( Business Leader Magazine,The Park Guide, Triangle Real Estate, Women in the Triangle,Corporate Relocation Guide) were bought out by Eran Salu of Business Leader Media. I had not been paid for the last 2 shoots I did for them

After continued attempts of trying to get paid ( mail,email and certified mail ) I was forced to file a claim in Wake County small claims court. It's not the money it's the PRINCIPAL.

I'll keep you updated as to the out come. This is all new to me, I've never had to go to court before. If your curious about past cases with Business Leader you should go down to the public access terminals at the Wake County courthouse and type in Business Leader and see if you get any hits. That's what I did.

some tear sheets


I actually got some printed tear sheets the other day. A shoot from Vincent Shoes for Hannah Anderson. I wish I would of gotten some shoes for my kids.

Jones Street


On my way into work I pass by Jones street in the morning and it's still dark. They are in the process of tearing down afew buildings, I thought it was sorta funny that the windows are all busted out and the lights are still on ? I went by the other evening and snapped some shots.
