So I work at a hotel and study full time and I like to do photos when I get the opportunity and well I'm also trying to crack into the gig to get more work. so far I've done a few shoots; weddings, families, sports etc and it's been cool.
Anyways a lady at work who does events has been asking if I can take photos of their function/event before its used so they can send shots to potential clients, I've done it once before and her belief is that it helps me with my portfolio and it helps her.
I know I'm being screwed over here but she wants more done tomorrow. Problem is I'm never going to use photos as a portfolio of a room with some tables and chairs in it.. like what the fuck..
What would /p/ do?

It is basically indoors architecture. Look up photos done by hotels advertising their event rooms. You basically have to show how big it is and what basic arra, maybe a few simple decorations. Use your head, you will be doing marketing for the hotel. No need for artsy compositions, use wide angle, maybe one or two unconventional angles at the end.
I bet she doesn't want anything special or new approach, try to deliver what others did.

You say you know you're being screwed over and you know that you can't even use the photos yourself so the obvious choice is to say no Are you posting this because you're afraid of the consequences for your job?
>Use your head, you will be doing marketing for the hotel
It's pretty clear this isn't going to lead to paid work. People trying to score free/extremely cheap shots never do
