Managed to sell some shots.

[DarknFuzzy]

I did some shots for a new sports center that just opened. I've never done stuff like this before, so i offered to come in, spend time with them and take the shots for nothing. If they liked the shots then they can select the ones they want to buy.

They had nothin to lose so they agreed. Well, they liked them and have used them on their website and printed flyers. I'm a little chuffed I have to say.

Here is the web graphic which includes 2 of the photos.

Nice one. Can I be very cheeky and ask roughly what you charged for the shots they wanted? If you'd rather not say thats cool.

Well done, not sure I like what they've done with your photos but it's money and experience in the bag!

 

[mmcp42]

but the best thing they did is pay for them!

 

[Forbiddenbiker]

Very business like.

 

[DarknFuzzy]

Wow, thank for all the replies folks. It's a buzz to see your work in print.

I figured it would get me experience and an outside chance of some money. No harm in trying as they say. I just spoke to the guy this afternoon, seemingly in the two weeks after the flyer campaign they have had over 100 sign ups.

As for the price for the picks, I charged £75 for the 3 shots that they wanted to use. I spent about an hour taking the shots, not much PP as they wanted to do the cropping. I was just happy they liked them and used them tbh.

Edit:
Just thought I would include the originals.

I didn't notice the blown out windows till i got home and was a little annoyed, they didn't really care as they were going to crop them anyway. I tried to use the blur effect to give a sense of motion.
