Marshybaby, good on you for going for this!!! Great shots!!! I can sympathise with your (and anyone alse's!) angst at whether or not to ask..... I've just done a few days at a trade show. At one of the nearby stands two quite attractive girls were handing out goodies for a company - I thought they were company employees. Anyways, I had my camera for some shots of our stand, and at the end of the show asked one of them if it would be ok to take her pic. Eh? fancy her? ME? dunno what you mean....... anyways, she said yeah. I explained a little of what I was gonna do to the pic (ie. as per my latest stuff) and she was quite interested - turns out she's trying to break into modelling a bit (no chance at catwalk, she's only 5' tall!) and would be interested.... now I've found she actually has a deal with a photographer whereby she just takes a cut of pictures sold with her in them as an alternative to a sitting fee. Hopefully when I've finished the pic she'll dig my work and I'll be able to work out a similar deal...... fingaz crossed! (",)
