Hell, buy 2 seats and twice the carryon for such a high paying gig that needs 6 goddamn cameras and flies you out as the expert. And bill it to the client/whoever fucked up gear shipping.

Grab a vintage manual lense, flip your lcd closed, and take 10 deep breaths to oxygenate your nogging for every shot you take getting a good story or even just a composition. Repeat 10000 times.
Or get paid and let your clients’ money hone whats good (enough).
It’s illegal to do 90+ on highways, but people still do it.
500,000 or 5,000,000 telescope isn’t quite your $250 little camera drone?
Tell me you shoot Sony or Canon without telling me you shoot Sony or Canon.
Lol
Fog machines don’t make smoke, so yea.
Best steer your friends away from those unpaid, absolutely bullshit gigs and try to work directly with participants like you’re doing.
Concerts don’t pay, and when they barely do - there’s a horde of desperate photogs willing to fight tooth and nail for those gigs for reasons I’ll never understand…
OP, your honest and best bet is boudoir since you have 0 creep factor when it would come to working with other women in their undies, and this PAYS. Then you can just attend concerts for fun and laugh at those desperate shmucks working them.
Easiest way to do it, but thus everything gets factored in.
On the contrary - even shitty old gear gained undeserved popularity and now goes for heaps more than its actually worth.
Precisely. 99% of this whole industry is solo work, and maybe an occasional studio portable coffee table.
Les you have some magazine cover level clients and all sign model releases, not much you could nor should do with leftovers.
Naaaah.
2.1. Make it exclusive to cover.
Go fight everyone you encounter, become the very best, seize the top! (While shooting, naturally).
OP wasn’t in Atlanta.
So its worthless outside of doing it for whomever is hiring you. Shouldn’t be an issue with doing it as work for hire.
30-40 edits for $320? You’re lucky you got anything out of a price that low. And sounds like you expected $6-800 level of work.
Or has much of any resale value with tons of actual press there if its a significant event.
Never put your pricing down if you ever plan on making serious bucks. Client who will make $100k off of your work will be charged 10x more than a client who’d make $1000.
