it's not much different than shooting a wedding (except you don't have to deal with a bride or her mother), or any other type of event. spork99 has you going in the right direction. it's all about managing expectations and being realistic in terms of what are going to charge and how much you are going to have to deliver. the most important thing is to make sure that no one tries to call it "only a birthday party", but expect "event of the century" photos for only a couple bucks, just because it's "only a birthday party"... |
