So i got my laptop, Its chargin. I took around 3000 photos in a week.
I need photoshop and Lightroom and I need to get it cheap.
Good thing all graphics will go on laptop.
it is bigger than out PC in the study memory wise so I'm happy.
I had a crazy thing going on with a friend who asked me to shoot, and told me at the end sh needs it for an ad and the "this is the format" and "its due in 3 days". I thought it was for a website(it is that too), So I hurried and found the best picture of her and her partner
(had to compromise) and edited it big time and change the format and though I was done till the other one said she looks bad, she said that about all her pictures.
There was nothing else I could do with he time we had and also she looked fine (according to 10 people I asked b4 submitting), I got annoyed a bit, and it taught me yet another lesson , some people don't like to take pictures and they don't like the way they look, and this is hard to deal with so yo haev to find a way to work with them and be honest , I mean pictures are s personal.
So, you have to try to help them but only to a point cus a picture will not solve deep insecurities. we all know that.
I also learned , I gotta ask" is there something you are not telling me that you need from this pictures?" well that is silly, I'm tired, All ended well, and I just wish people would know how beautiful they are. Too much insecurity going around.
Peace

Yup that's what people have to expect having pictures taken by someone else. The photographer gets to pick the shots they think are beautiful, the person doesn't. At least not the way I do it!
Many photogs let the people choose print photos from a cd or website(or even buy the cd.then you charge for min prints if u deal with prints.
After all they are going to be hanging these pictures on their wall etc. But I agree that when u ask for a session you allow the photg see things through their eye.
In this case it was a surprise 1 photo that goes to an ad asap, so it threw me off. But I let then choose the rest after I organize them. for their website in this case and a big one for their salon (:
I heard somewhere that people tend not to like photos of themselves PARTLY because it's not what they see in the mirror, it's not their reflection- it's what everyone else sees, so then it looks fine to everyone else. -This is Liz Shorten Petty (Miri's sister-in-law).
