<p>That's what I do mostly. Go to pointing dog field trials and get what I can. Sometime friends come by wanting a photo of their dog and I go set the dog up on a bird and get a shot for them. I don't charge friends for photo's or frames. I got a message from a lady I know in Arizona this evening wanting to know if I could make a couple frames for the 2015 Brittany Futurity in Arizona. Sure, I donate lot's of frames to different trial clubs for the trials. Going to make a reg frame for the winning certificate and a shadow box for a raffle prize. Though I'd try to post one of each here and see what people think. I do very little post processing, can't figure it out very well! So, what do you think?<br /> This is a friends dog i set up here at home. he doesn't know he's getting it yet, doesn't even know I made it. It's a 9x18 I printed here at home.<br /> http://i1363.photobucket.com/albums/r706/fischerantlp/Photo%20Frames/DSC_0001-001_zpse327a8e4.jpg</p>
<p>This one is a dog I got at a field trial. I was changing how I do the shadow box's and just grabbed a photo, it's a 4x6 print.<br /> http://i1363.photobucket.com/albums/r706/fischerantlp/Photo%20Frames/DSC_0001_zpsfc6cb7e8.jpg<br /> As I said, I'm not good at PP so they actually look better inn person. What do you think?<br>
Well, photo's didn't load and one's from photobucket you can't see! Try again. Ah, one photo did show up. My friend's e Setter Ben. I guess you can only do one photo at a time.</p><div></div>

<p>Tuff lesson. Most people don't know a good photo from a bad photo. What they do know is weather or not they like the photo's they see. I do photo's at pointing dog field trials. First year I gave away 300+ 4x6 prints but for me it was a learning deal. People offered to pay but I wouldn't take the money, I told them this was my learning year, after that I'd charge for them. I also make frame's for them and carry a printer along to print on the spot. I don't do this for the money, but rather ask enough to pay my expenses and it cover's that and a bit more. If I had been going to do it as a business, I would not have given anything away. If you want to keep things you do fun, don't make a business of it. Someone want's a photo tell them they have to pay for the paper and ink. If they don't want to, their loss. Is it a business or a hobby? I keep work out of my life now, I retired 8 yrs ago!</p>
