You're too ugly (on the inside) to photograph ...

Photographer refuses to take
the pictures of high school Facebook bullies, telling them 'You're too ugly... on the inside'

 A photographer has refused to take pictures of a group of high school girls who were bullying other teens on Facebook.

Pennsylvania photographer Jennifer McKendrick was scheduled to shoot the school girls for their senior photo.

But when she came across a Facebook page with cruel comments from four high school girls whose names matched her scheduled clients she saw red. 

McKendrick emailed the girls and their parents to cancel their portraits, including screen-shots of their comments to explain why she was calling off the session.

McKendrick wrote more about her decision on her personal blog, in a post titled 'I Won't Photograph Ugly People.'

She wrote: 'I mean how could I spend two hours with someone during our session trying to make beautiful photos of them knowing they could do such UGLY things.'

'Realistically, I know by cancelling their shoots it's not going to make them 'nicer people' but I refuse to let people like that represent my business.'

The comments were 'vicious' the photographer told WTAE-TV.

She added: 'It was beyond 'your clothes are ugly' or 'you don't have any brand clothes' or 'you are ugly, your hair is not right.'

'It was vicious. It was talking about sexuality.'

'If you are ugly on the inside, I'm sorry but I won't take your photos to make you look pretty on the outside … I simply don't want to photograph ugly people.'

Her Facebook page has since been flooded with hundreds of comments from people supporting her decision.

According to her blog there has been no backlash to McKendrick's decision so far, but she's prepared if she does.

The photographer said that two of the girl's parents responded to her with apologies, noting that they were surprised by their daughters' actions.

I HATE my High School yearbook photo!

I look like such a dork (nevermind that I still am) but at 17 it was a soul-crushing experience.

At least you have a year book I didn't get the chance to look anything. Left school at 13
