    Just wanted to quote this so we can remember it when you complain about having to edit a photo 20 times. hahaha I never offer unlimited editing, that is asking for trouble.

    I rarely make prints. Depending on the client, once they pay for the shoot I do several hi res images with my watermark on them so they can print them. 2 for $25 is not bad but normally I see 1 for $25 most places.

    To each their own. If I shot family type stuff I would do prints but I rarely do.

    Some do but if you try and charge for prints then you kill any money you could make. It is hard to make money shooting models cause so many GWC's with an SLR think they can shoot and will do it for free. Then I get to hear horror stories of GWC's making lewd comments, inapropriate touching, uncomfortable situations, and trying to turn a shoot into a porn shoot. I hear it all the time and it is just getting worse.

    Yep. It is sad and they know that girls lose a lot of inhibitions when they are in front of the camera.
