[QUOTE="cbay, post: 593730, member: 35177"] Haven't been doing much shooting lately. Mostly hunting all fall. Sister sends me an email today. Their software company needs new group shots as well as individual head shots. So that would be around a dozen for the one group shot. Another group of 4 of the reps. Then headshots for the dozen. WOW. To me that seems like a pretty large shoot considering i have never done anything like that before. Aside of my nephews senior shots this summer and playing around in the house with my gear (very little), this is all new ground. Sis obviously has a lot more confidence in me than i do. lol To be fair about it though, i do think i could pull it off with decent (relative) results. I would have to go down to Springfield to their office after hours and run the whole scenario a few days ahead of time and try to get all my "chimping" done ahead of time or as much as possible. Got: 3 Yn 560's, Tx transmitter, 2 umbrellas, 5x8 portable background (black), small 8x12 softbox, 3 stands, reflector, My trusty D7200 and 18-140 lens!! Don't get me wrong, i aspire to do stuff like this going forward, but this is feeling like a pretty big step to start out. I just got the email a few hours ago and already stressing! I told her i would give here a decision tomorrow. To top it off she wants it done next week. No hurry or anything. lol Part of me says do the homework ahead of time and let it rip. Other part says that's just too much to expect a decent outcome without more experience. I don't know, just rambling here. I already got my buck this season so it was time to start hanging out on here anyway.... Anybody want to push me over the edge here one way or the other. LOL! [/QUOTE]
