Red Bow Photo is located out of Charlotte, NC. They expanded from professional sports to photographing youth athletics in the greater Charlotte area. There were about 5 to 6 photographers. Compensation was based on number of teams shot. I photographed teams between April 18 and May 30. I have not been paid for any work, nor have the other photographers. I have called and emailed the owner Reginald Bowser and wife Trina numerous times over the past 5 weeks trying to figure out when I'll be paid. They have promised immediate pay several times, however I have yet to receive a paycheck. The Bowsers are no longer returning my phone calls.

You guys are way behind the news.

Reggie and Trina owe many others way more.

I was the Director of Operations for Red Bow from November until April.

He only paid me til January.

Currently owes me over $12, 500.

Get a lawyer.

I take it your Lawyer couldn't help you? Something needs to be done with these guys they seem to thing that they're above the law.

I too am one of the Anaheim Photographers. I have worked from April 24 through May 30th. We were told that we would get paid the 15th and the 30th of every month. I never received one paycheck. I have made numerous attempts to get in touch with the President of the company, but never received any phone call or email back. Because of this whole situation, I lost my housing and no longer can pay my bills.

Did all of you receive the letter from Reginald today??? If not I'll send it to you.

My roommate and I were hired by Redbow to photograph during the inauguration in the bitter cold. We were promised payment within 14 days, then later by mid February. That was the last communication we received from the company and still no payment. How do we get in on the lawsuit? I was seeking my own personal lawyer already.

I worked in NJ for Redbow. As of today we have not gotten paid for photos from January on. Reggie no longer takes calls, told us we would have a money plus interest by May 15th... So if there is a class action going, send out the lawyer's info.

Hey guys, go to the Better Business Bureau website and file a complaint. At least then when people research the company they will know that others got scammed. Also, they will send out a letter to Redbow and they only have 14 days to respond. www.bbb.org/us. Also on the website is the new address and phone numbers for Redbow if you need them.
PS- When you put in your complaint make sure you do not check yes for the question "is this regarding employment practices." The answer is no because you are actually on a contract.

Lies and more lies. We will be lucky if we ever see our money.

I am the Photographer who filed the class action suit with the state of Massachusetts. RedBow has defaulted on the suit and now my lawyer will file for a default judgement. This, I believe, will make the judgement a "criminal complaint". Tell everyone you know. These people are crooks! I hope they go to jail and loose their personal assets as well.

I hope someone from the Charlotte business Journal will do a follow up story.

Don't believe Reginald until he sends a check and the bank actually cashes it. I knew from day one this was a gyp but I actually believe in people's trust.

Has anyone received an email from Red Bow with payment instructions? See Bowser's July 29 comment
2009-10-15 09:11:48 by pluggin
A few more days left for a response. I submitted my info monday so according to the letter I should hear back from them by next monday.
2009-10-15 09:12:24 by Wage Protector
Hi, it is now Wednesday August 12, 2009. Has anyone who emailed Red Bow as suggested by Reggie Bowser in his July email received a reply yet?
2009-10-15 09:12:53 by pluggin
I haven't received anything yet. SarahB248, what did you receive and when? I think most are still waiting after relying. I submitted my info last week Monday and nothing yet. Also what City are you in? I was wondering if he just doesn't want anyone to come to his home.
2009-10-15 09:13:25 by pluggin
Has anyone else received confirmation? and what city are you in? Everyone please keep everyone else posted. What-When-Where-City...

Hello Jason, I called the Red Bow office today and now cannot even get a voicemail prompt... Just Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!!! Anyways hopefully they are reviewing this board since they deem this board fit to address those that are willing to speak out about their universal practices in an online forum, including their attorney. Everything you have stated is understood and bears witness to us involved we greatly appreciate your efforts in resolving this unjust matter. Unfortunately those that are not connected or have not found this small group will undoubtedly not be compensated for their services to Red Bow Photo because by experience I will understand that they have any and all intension of no compensation unless one is willing to shout out to everyone they can, again I and certain more are thankful for your efforts to bring a resolve to our (all uncompensated photographhers and Red Bow emloyees) end.

I am certain that many will be willing including myself to stand before a judge and state the unethical and illegal practices of Reginald Bowser and Red Bow Photo.

You may consider contacting an attorney as prescribed above by Red Bow's attorney and consult with them to counter sue for harassment with bias. I am not an attorney but live in America and am willing to confront those that have unjustly taken advantage of free and worthy Americans and someone or entity that thinks that they are above the values given by our constitutional rights.

Sincerely,
Bert Cortez
