Ive read and researched but I am still missing the pieces to the puzzle. My problem is they aren't really calming

down and they get really fussy. I just can't seem to get them comfortable.

1.) when photographing newborns that are nakied, in between posing all my babies will cry and get upset..im not

sure what I am doing wrong.. I don't have any babies so I don't know if they just are mad that they are nakied,

or what not?

2.) is there something that can help calm down a fussy baby? should I get a ceramic space heater to keep the room

warm? how warm should the room be? Also I could get a electric heating blanket to warm up to blanket then remove

it before the baby gets there...

3.) Posing tricks.. any ideas that will be most comfortable with the baby?

Thanks.. I don't know y I am so reluctant to post this on here but I haven't seen anything on fussy babies and

the magical tricks of the trade!!!

peace and love...Kimberly

I work at a golf course as a beverage cart girl. As of right now I'm in the process of buliding a photography business. I shoot mainly portraits

however my bosses would luke to use my skills and have me photograph the golfers and sell them there pictures. Now here's the issue.

They want me to do this while I am doing my regular beverage cart duties! Messy I know. There are a lot of issue to be worked out! Does

anyone know how I should approch this? Here are my options that I could see but they all have flaws: they all will sign a realase (do I need

one?)

1.) take there pictures ask for their email address and email small files water marked along with a link to say, smugmug for purchasing to

keep track of who's who I'll take a pic of the cart number and have there name along with that cart number and there email address. This

way I can edit the pictures the easiest!

2.) take their pictures print out a contact sheet bring it around to show the groups and place the orders. I'll have the prunes printed up b4

they get off the course.

3.) take the pictures print them out and sell them when they get off the course

All the pictures will be uploaded to an online ordering system if they would like to order them later.

Please help. I am some what being forced to do this. They ask me everyday. I don't want to take my camera out on the course because it's

really hot and expensive and let's face it I'll be also placing drink orders. I can only see this working of they have someone else do it. It's not

logical for the bev cart girl to do this. Nor in my job discription but I'll try my hardest.

Thanks mucho

Peace & love. Kim

The other day I recieved an email from a potential client. When I asked where they were getting married they told

me in Arizona. I live in Florida. so i was a little shocked. I'm a beginner and I placed an ad on craige's list

for Florida. I am just wondering if it sounds legit. I def. would love to go to Arizona. Also I wanted to know

about how to charge for sales tax. Would I be charging for Arizona or Florida. And my contract would that hold up

in Arizona?

This is the email I received
