Shootproof, Zenfolio, Pixiset . . . which is best?
This photographer will be photographing an event, and attendees can purchase the photos from her website afterwards. She seeks recommendations on the best software to sell photos for this one-time event (without locking herself into a long-term commitment with the software).
What tripod head do you prefer to use for portraiture?
Scroll through this list of business tips and add a few of your own! From under-promising and over-delivering, to the importance of always having business cards at the ready (even at the gym!), there are some gems here.
A sports photography newbie seeks recommendations on lenses for action shots. Got any tips?
This photographer is ready to invest in an L zoom lens, but is torn between the 25-70 2.4 or the 70-200. She likes being closer to the client in order to interact with them, and she also does lifestyle newborn shoots frequently, so she's leaning towards the wider end. But the long lens portrait look of her 85 is one of her favorites. Can you help her decide?
