Had a super weird experience with a security guard at the Commons. I was excited to test out getting some shots with my camera on a foggy day, possibly for use in a blog - not something I make money off of, and definitely not professional level photos. My friend and I were approached by a guard who immediately started grilling us on what we were doing taking photos. My camera seemed to be what he had issue with. I explained, and he said they don’t allow commercial photography and that I needed to contact a supervisor to use a camera. I again explained that there was no money to be made off of what I might use them for, and that I had taken photos using my phone at concerts at the Commons before with no issue. As we were leaving, he basically walked us to the parking garage to make sure we were leaving. It felt like a completely unnecessary escalation of a non-issue. I’ll definitely think twice about going to the Commons in the future, this interaction left a bad taste in my mouth for sure.
