thanks so much guys for the luck!!! we're gonna need it!!! magick doctor...thanks sooooo much for the great advice! i will definitely get that book!! You're considered cheap???? Wow! sounds like it's some pretty good money! no, i don't want to sell myself short and not charge enough. you're right about that! I think i'm gonna call around...check out some of the local freelancers...and see what they charge. I love your images!!!!!! especially that 1st one! the lighting is HOT, POV perfect and that guy's expression says it all! verrrry soulful! 2nd one is awesome too! same incredible lighting and awesome action shot! i sure hope i can do something this fantastic!!! and i bet you DID have fun!!!!! i'm hardly waiting! can't imagine what it must feel like to shoot to music, especially to a pulsating beat. bet it's an incredible feeling!! do you find it at all distracting? or did the music and excitement enhance your shoot? was it hard to concentrate? i just hope i'll be able to focus on the shoot instead of getting into the music. then again, if i get into the music perhaps that will reflect in my images. never know....:) Thanks a bunch!!! :)
