I know a major newspaper where the carrier broke the window of someone's house delivering their daily paper. The subscriber complained, naturally, but the newspaper told their subscriber, "Hey. Not our problem. The carrier is an independent contractor." That's one hell of a way to treat your customers. There are web sites about photographer's rights. I learned about this sort of thing when angry parents got in my face when I was taking pictures at the park. They thought I was taking pictures of their kids. People can be way too uptight sometimes.

I was a private security officer at one time and NEVER was told anything about denying a photographer the right to photograph from the outside. If these clowns are representatives of the building, client, etc. they ought to take a course in public relations. There is NO excuse for their inappropriate actions. GO FOR IT! Good for you.
