I would say this disappoints me, but I actually find this to be a good thing because our company now would now not like to work with you as well.<\/p>\n<p> It&rsquo;s not that because you have a different view from us, but it&rsquo;s because, since you don&rsquo;t like an support <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> marriage, no one else should be able to have it.

So I will try not to judge you here and say anything more as to my opinion of you.<\/p>\n<p> At Brentwood Photography we see love in all forms. Now as far as your retainer goes, I hope you&rsquo;ll read the first article in the contract you signed stating that this retainer is nonrefundable.<\/p>\n<p> But don&rsquo;t you worry, I&rsquo;m not going to keep it!<\/p>\n<p> Because of this conversation, I have decided to donate your $1500 to GLAAD [the Gay &amp; Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation], a group created to help and support <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> rights.<\/p>\n<p> So let me be the first to say [redacted], thank you very much for your donation and support for this great cause!<\/p>\n<p> I couldn&rsquo;t have done it without your money.<\/p>\n<p> Sincerely and with Love,<br \/> Brentwood Photography<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> The Facebook post has since been liked more than 58,000 times, with scores of netizens praising the photographer for choosing principle over profit. <\/p>\n<p> Lee told Buzzfeed that he&rsquo;s also received his fair share of hate mail.<\/p>\n<p> &ldquo;I think it&rsquo;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/stephaniemcneal\/this-photographer-had-the-best-response-after-losing-a-clien#.leqBdY1RX\" target=\"_hplink\">truly beautiful the amount of positive messages and words of encouragement I have received<\/a>, it is been about 90 percent positive and 10 percent gut wrenching sad personal attacks,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;The hate that comes out of these people&rsquo;s mouths make me want to cry, but the 90 percent give me the strength to stay strong and not doubt what I did.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p> The photographer added that he&rsquo;s been called a &ldquo;crook&rdquo; for not returning the money to the client. He stressed, however, that they signed a contract clearly stating that the deposit was non-refundable. <\/p>\n<p> &ldquo;The retainer is paid for and there to protect us,&rdquo; he told Buzzfeed, adding that the client responded to his message with the words: &ldquo;Companies like yours are the reason our country is falling apart&hellip; Good luck with the queers, ASSHOLE!&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p> Ultimately, Lee says he&rsquo;s &ldquo;happy I took a stand.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p> There&rsquo;s just one thing he wishes he could change.<\/p>\n<p> &ldquo;The only thing I wish I had changed &hellip; is where it says I support &lsquo;Gay Marriage,&rsquo;&rdquo; he <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/4d0jz0th_V\/\" target=\"_hplink\">wrote on Instagram<\/a> Sunday. &ldquo;While I 100 percent do, I wish I had just said that I support marriage opportunity for all.
