This is seriously unacceptable. She has your money and has not given you what you have paid for. Besides bringing out LawyerTamb, it's time to start blasting her in reviews.
Well I don't even care what your tone was in that email she is a straight up asshole. And she wants to be a doula? Wow. Way to be sensitive to capturing one of the most poignant moments in a woman's life . If she can't grasp that concept I have no idea how she is going to be successful in her new endeavor.
She's an asshole.
I hope you get the disc and then tell her to to go fuck herself. Seriously.
JUST KIDDING There is no update, because I replied to her on Monday morning asking what sort of discount she was proposing, and I haven't heard a word back from her since. I also haven't gotten the proofs she promised to put in the mail "first thing Monday morning."
The photos really were lovely, though she would have had to try hard to ruin such beautiful subjects. If you're okay with the $200 price, then I'd pay it (after you got the disc) and put this mess behind you. I would still leave negative reviews. While I sympathize with her hospitalization and whatever else she may have been dealing with, I think she owed it to you, as a professional, to be somewhat responsive.
1. I feel bad for her if she was in the hospital for a miscarriage, but honestly, I think she's using her hospitalization as an excuse and a ploy to make you feel bad so you don't go for the jugular. 2. I'd definitely assume that the 200 is total, so let her know, "Okay, thank you. Since I already gave you 150, I'll send you a check for the remaining 50 as soon as I get the pictures."
I interpret that as she now owed you 150 for the sitting fee, so I would take that out of what you now owe her. What was the original price supposed to be? I also interpret it as "you're the one with the problem and I refuse to admit I messed up royally." But that'd neither he nor there right now.
Ugh all of this sucks. I would be tempted to just pay her so I could have all the photos and be done. I am non confrontational though. Maybe once you get the images someone could look at them and see what if anything can be done?

This is what I would do. Give her the $50 and be done.
