The Day Rate
True stories about the money behind the camera, told like heists: the portrait chain that closed overnight, the $125 fee that became a million-dollar verdict, the photographer who took 200 deposits and shot no weddings. Each week, two hosts take one real case from court filings and the public record, work out how the money really moved, and leave you with one clause, number or habit for your own studio. Every claim checked using FactUnion's fact-checking process; every source is in the episode notes.
