How do i drive into the passion and determination you speak about( i'm not scared to Drive!)and help my husband to Fully understand the kind of support i need.He's getting a feel of it but i know he doesn't have to full deep picture or understand the payoff in the long term.What helped your Husband? 2. Cold Calling: can you give a example of how and what you would say or go about pitching to a magazine or Potential Client? 3.What actually happens when you approach an agency to start using their models? what would you say ? do you think nowadays you need to go down there(which makes me feel like too much of a newbie-like.. which i am not) or have your agent call and email you website or is it better to connect yourself via phone. i ask because you know this industry is a lot about appearances.

my Questions:

1.I have been in the Fashion industry on many different levels over a decade now. Now that i am committed to Photography… i have a family: New husband and a super smart 4year to balance.
How do i drive into the passion and determination you speak about( i’m not scared to Drive!)and help my husband to Fully understand the kind of support i need.He’s getting a feel of it but i know he doesn’t have to full deep picture or understand the payoff in the long term.What helped your Husband?

2. Cold Calling:
can you give a example of how and what you would say or go about pitching to a magazine or Potential Client?

3.What actually happens when you approach an agency to start using their models? what would you say ?
do you think nowadays you need to go down there(which makes me feel like too much of a newbie-like.. which i am not) or have your agent call and email you website or is it better to connect yourself via phone.
i ask because you know this industry is a lot about appearances.

I’ll ration out the questions.

I hear about test shoots but don't really understand what all is involved in setting one up. Also, I agree with the questions that were made by Terry Jackson (first subscriber comment). Many thanks for your awesome blog. I’d like to know anything regarding contacting a modeling agency for test shoots.

I love this blog. Maybe if you could touch on this a bit. I know every major photographer that blogs states that gear doesn't matter as much. However, they are always holding their H3D and Profotos as they say it. How does someone try to compete in this business without the Profoto's and all the gear that goes with it? Can you get serious jobs without this stuff? How did you start building your gear? You say that the level you come in at is the level your seen at forever. How can you charge the same rate with lesser gear? I know that gear doesn't make the pictures but it certainly helps get you the job. no? Hi. I love this blog. Maybe if you could touch on this a bit.
