So there I was out freezing my but off taking pics for my portfolio at Landstown commons the sky was pristine clear and cold. after about 30 min right in the middle of blue hour, a squad car with Virginia Beach's Finest pull up behind me and start asking me what I'm doing.. I'm polite and accommodating explaining to the officers that I'm in school and working on my architecture portfolio. They tell me that they had received a frantic call from an employee who was all freaked out cuz someone was taking pictures. I then explain to the officers I had in fact attempted to let the employee know I was just taking pictures of the building but they had locked up and were hiding in the back... (LOL) so I set up across the street in the parking lot and proceeded to take my pics... the officers were very polite explaining that I had 2 strikes since I had an XY chromosome but I wasn't going to be arrested since I hadn't broken any laws i said Oh I KNOW I hadn't done anything wrong. we all laughed and after an hour or so I was on my way... Photogs know your rights!
