    Advice on a golf tournament!

    I've still got some bits to do on the website, but if you'd like to see the pic's take a look at http://golfpics.andrewstevensphotography.co.uk Be keen to hear what you think (my first foray into golf, with another two bookings!). Cheers Andy

    I am really jarred off with o2!!!

    I've been with O2 for 20 years (Cellnet originally) and only ever had one problem - and that was when they decided to increase the tariffs significantly assuming all business users want everything! I threatened to leave and they basically said "have a nice day" and didn't really care. What's one...

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    @leftcurl, it was quite a fun day - almost made me want to dust my clubs off - definitely helped talking to the teams before the 1st tee and breaking the ice. @DuncanH, too cheap eh? That's what I was thinking originally but several people thought these were expensive prices! (but I guess some...

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    Well, I guess they liked the shots. On the course from 9am to 2.30pm, 427 shots kept (now to do the strict edit!) - using LightRoom I had them processed and showing on a randomised slideshow on a second monitor before they'd all ordered a pint - picked up some orders and possibly two more...

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    One last question.... I'm planning to take some action shots as well as the team shots - a percentage of takings is going back to the fund raising so do you think the following pricing is ok; 5x7 @ £5 10x8 @ £10 16x12 @ £20 Printing via DSCL to maximise margins and therefore contribution to...

    My photo in the paper

    I found one of my prints in a print shop advertising their canvas service - they'd taken it from my website, I challenged the guy in the shop (very politely) and he put me in touch with the owner who was away. I left him a message and also sent an email stating (again politely) that he was using...

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    Oh, and I'm free to sell prints of the players for a cut to the cause - and I have the clubhouse wall to hang my landscapes up for sale (again for a cut).

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    Hi Duncan, It's an informal fundraiser and the main aim is to capture a shot of each team in front of at least one of the 4 sponsors banners that will be on display around the course. If I can get some action shots, that's a bonus but not a major requirement. Now having been round the course...

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    Thanks one and all, some very useful tips and advice. I'm off for a wander around the course today with the organiser so will bare your tips in mind and look for decent vantage points/interesting backgrounds/potentially busy bunkers etc. They have a few shots in mind they would like capturing -...

    Advice on a golf tournament!

    Hi there, I couldn't see a thread on this so thought I'd ask the question. My brother in law has asked me to photograph his charity golf tournament - and I've said yes. His usual tog is away with work so I'm happy to help out. What would be the best strategy do you think? I'd like to get some...

    Format for printing

    I'd say a 300ppi tiff file in Adobe 1998 RGB colourspace. For specific lab req's, you can then save from this master tiff to the required lab spec.
