Joe, You should be backing up more than a battery!! Like, a second D70 body? Do you have multiple CF cards? Enough to shoot an entire wedding? If not, how will...
John, I don't think anyone can really predict that. I have been to Colorado in the first part of October when the peak color was definitely past and I have...
I agree with Joe on the CF cards and flash/diffuser. But I think those are probably enough (with fully charged spare batteries). The odds of you camera...
Sarah, I actually saw the Johnson book yesterday and will probably pick it up. It seems easy to digest and even in the few pages available in the preview I ...

Thank you, Kris! I have read so much about how photographers need a property release to sell photos that I was afraid maybe I would need a release of some kind...

Thanks, John! I think wedding cakes can be very unique as well. I will have to figure out the contract thing as Kris mentioned. I would assume the gardens has...

Kris, thank you! I have a lot to learn! I apprecite you taking the time to explain this. I think I will visit the library and see if I can get some books on...

vincent you're going to have to be a bit more speific in details as to why you're shooting a high school football game. i ask because if it isn't for a local,...
Actually thats not legally correct, Yes you do need to have permission to be on school property but you don't need a model release to sell a picture of a high...
Yes you would need a realse from the party that was paying for the wedding. If the caterer wanted you to take pictures in there kitchin on there property and...
