Antigay Bride Fires Pro-Gay Wedding Photographer Only To Have Her $1,500 Deposit Donated To GLAAD

A wedding photographer from Florida recently found himself out of a job when a bride-to-be fired him upon learning he supported gay marriage. But, don’t worry, he got the last laugh.

Clinton Brentwood Lee, owner of Brentwood Photography in Saint Petersburg, FL, received a rather nasty text message from a client after she went on his went on his website and discovered, to her absolute shock and horror, that he had photographed same-sex wedding ceremonies.

“Greetings Brentwood,” the text began. “We would just like to inform you that we will NOT be using your services for our wedding.”

The text continued: “My fiance and I support traditional marriage between a man and a woman and don’t want our money going to places that support otherwise.”

Boycotting every pro-gay business in the world? Good luck with that, honey.

The bride then asked for the $1,500 non-refundable deposit she initially put down to be returned. Apparently, she doesn’t understand how a non-refundable deposit works.

But Brentwood didn’t let the bitchy little note get the best of him. Instead, he replied:

“Wow, I’m really not sure what to say here. I would say this disappoints me, but I actually find this to be a good thing because our company would not not like to work with you as well.”

He continued: ” Now as far as your retainer goes, I hope you’ll read the first article in the contract you signed stating that this retainer is nonrefundable. But don’t worry, I’m not going to keep it!”

Instead, Brentwood says, “I have decided to donate your $1,500 to GLAAD, a group created to help and support gay rights.”

“Let me be the first to say thank you very much for your donation and support for this great cause,” his response concluded. “I couldn’t have done it without your money.”
