- Mareta wrote “Hey Mike, I want to ask you a quick question about your Gala pictures. I am in picture #164. I would love to have a copy of the picture, but I also want to respect your copyright as well. Is there any way I can get a copy of it? I manged to look through all your pictures -- they are amazing. Nice work. Let me know. Thanks again Mike, and I hope you enjoyed the event as much as I did! Mareta Howards Jewellers”
- Mike wrote “Hi Mareta, Thanks for asking :) As this was a charity event, I'll need to clear it with the Gala first, but I don't see any issues. I'll contact you directly as soon as I find out.”
