My first non-family shoot (C&C and advice please)

[saqib]

Well I went round to set up for a buddy of mine's kids at his place - 18month and 6month girl and boy respectively.

I basically did it for free as a kinda practise run, hoping that once these come out good I can hope on word of mouth.

Shot with Canon 10d, 24-70L and elinchrom d-lite2's with colorama background. C&C appreciated.

Also, I need some advice on how much to charge. I figure £75 per session, with a guarantee of at least 30 good shots. Thereafter the printing would be at cost - does this sound reasonable?

Lots of images to look at. Generally your lighting looks pretty good. Generally I like the subject to be looking at the camera though. Cute kids and the colors look real good. Prices? What ever the traffic will bear. We get $100 US for the sitting and include a small group of photos in that price. Proofs are delivered on CD.

thanks for that - do you include full resolution images as proofs or just scaled down versions?

Very scaled down for viewing on a computer only. And generally I stamp them as proofs only.
