well… asked:

A woman I know would like me to shoot her wedding. I’ve never shot a wedding before, only fashion type editorials– and I’m still in school. How much should I charge and what is the best way to deliver the pictures? (CDs + prints? If so, how many prints?)

I am thinking about attending there are two days of instruction, but it is pretty pricey around $150 each day. The first day is to teach basics on the digital slr camera and the second is about software programs to enhance your photos etc. Has anyone taken these courses, are they worth the price? I am not a complete beginner, just need some additional instruction, would these benefit me?

She has a Pentax DSLR camera - what I’m really wondering is, what are the specs of the lenses she’ll need to get started, and what are the specs of the flashes she’ll need. Not wanting to go full-time, just wants to make a little extra money as she’s home with our new baby daughter.
Hey “Sam C,” I’m 1/2 mexican, and 1/2 asian indian,so you’re racial slurs missed the mark. Try again.

Triplescoop asked:

My husband has been a part time wedding photographer working mostly off word of mouth. He is ready to grow the business and would like to gain more clients. How should he go about advertising his business now? This is the wedding season and hopefully there is someone out there who does not have a photographer yet. It is too late to advertise in the phone book or other adds. What should we do?

My husband has the education and the experience. Now, we want to move to a full time business with this.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

My wife and I are looking for a nice digital camera. She would like it for taking routine pictures(vacation, birthdays, etc…). I love outdoor photography, I also would like it for taking family pictures. I have a Nikon N70 and have been very happy with it but would like to go digital. Any help would be appreciated.

Alex L asked:

I’ve been trying for the past several years to sell prints (framed and unframed) of my nature photos ( http://acluckhardt.deviantart.com/gallery/ ) but haven’t had much success. I live in a small town and feel like I can’t get my market. I really want to build my business around selling these prints and build up a substantial amount of sales. If you have a minute, please take a look at some of those samples and let me know if such a plan is even possible… where should I sell? Eventhough I don’t have experience with portraits, should I plan to start taking local outdoor portraits? Thanks!
