  1. I bought a Mamiya 645AFD thinking like you, that I'd switch to digital later, but did you price a digital back for it? I didn't and wish I did. They're outrageously priced. BTW, I do like the camera.
  2. Happened just last week. My daughter (9) got her finger stuck in a hole of a shower drain cover. It went in past the knuckle and I tried everything to get it off. Took her to the emergency room and the doctor said she wished she had a camera to capture the moment. Doh! Would have never thought of that. I keep thinking of all the precious moments I could show this at- her graduation, wedding, grandkids...
  3. I send a letter, explaining that it's strictly business, and give them a final date to send the deposit. Usually a month. If I don't receive anything by that date, I send a registered letter telling them their date is open to others, and to check with me to see if the date is still available before sending their deposit.
  4. Kristin, I hate to break it to you, but you're right, there's not a whole lot of opportunities or money in the portrait business. You'd probably have to open your own studio and be successful if you want to make a good living at it. That said, if you love portrait photography, go for it! Life isn't all about money, follow your heart. I don't know specifics about the visual communications degree, but I have a bachelors in Radio/TV/Film, and that field isn't much better than photography. Hope this helps. Good luck to you.
