It's actually how I got involved. She was asking for lens advice and we struck up a conversation that lead to this point. So far I've only answered direct questions and have not once offered anything outside of that. She's young too which might make it even more delicate. So trying to tread lightly.

I'd be interested. :) Shoot me a PM, please, sir!

I suppose much of the $35k is going toward prints...wonder how much her cut is if she feels like your fee is high?!

I hope she is at least going to print at a decent lab...not at Costco or something. (Btw, I know everyone seems to use White House CC for prints, but I've been using ProDPI...holy cow...the quality makes me want to sing!)


So, here's another twist that I really don't understand and I'm hoping she changes her mind. During our first conversation, we discussed printing. Her plan, and what she based her quote from, was to have her friend in ENGLAND print them! lol what the hell?

Just had a brief chat with her. The client is out of the country till after the first of the month. She thinks I'm a little high on my fee for just shooting. Told her we could negotiate that, but reassured her I'd be doing more than just shooting. If anyone wants to see her Facebook page, I'll pm you the link. Don't feel right putting it in public

I did track down her Facebook page, and she does pretty good portrait and senior photography. What she excels at imo is marketing herself. Well, except for the fact that she shows her before and after post processing examples. She relies heavily on post processing for lighting, but does a decent job of it.

Just hope it gets a chance to play out. If not, I guess it made for entertaining discussion
