    Pictures at "mates rates" or even for free?

    I'd just charge for prints in fairness. If something is going to cost you money or materials etc.. for a free shoot id get the friend to cover that cost. I've done some free shoots and friends always expected they would get others free and take the Micky. You have to watch as well they don't...
