The judge does $500 shoot and burns in the weekend

**bdparker** · 19-12-2011, 5:14pm

LOL.... I wonder if the judge moonlights as a photographer, cause he know more than either of them put together.

**Redbaron** · 19-12-2011, 7:11pm

Good to see the judge has a good (profitable) hobby....

no viruses for me - it's you tube

dont knock the shoot n burns,I did one recently and I would have done it for free since it was my chosen sport and did offer a lot of creative options (off camera flash,great location,action etc) the fact it paid (incl expenses) was a bonus!

so you would under-cut the market by doing things for free?

**ving** · 20-12-2011, 4:36pm

its a tough market... id give a freebie it i thought it would mean return business.

just dont get into a habit of doing it too much, or turn to offering Scoopon kind of deals

No I would have attended the event anyway and shot for personal use!
The point I was making is that shoot n burns dont have to be boring mass marathon running events!

the article is a pretty accurate account of my experience with sports shooting...however there are a few who can make money out of it (excluding the Getty,Reuters guys etc) but its an ever shrinking market.....unfortunately
