taking pictures for them in exchange for credentials?
so where's the pay in this?
I don't want to sound harsh, but why the FUCK would anyone want to take pics in exchange for "credentials" is beyond my understanding.

Pay is access. I did the same at the dirt track. Got some shots for my portfolio that I wouldn't have otherwise.
Maybe you wanted him to answer that though...

As someone who's had experience with this type of stuff, I hate to break it to you; access isn't payment. Doesn't matter how you want to spin it.
If you want access that'll lead to something, shoot spec. Shooting purely for access isn't exactly the best practice (not financially; but photographically)
Have fun at the ball games.

How do you get hired for a fashion shoot if you have no fashion images in your portfolio? I wouldn't expect to shoot for access forever, but in the beginning you've got to have something that shows you can do what you're trying to get paid to do, no?
