..... shes a gem isn't she! Such an awesome look and so photogenic. I actually thought she'd have them up on MM by now, I think shes quite happy with them.
She is awesome. I enjoy every second of any time we end up shooting. One of those people who makes so much more sense when the camera's pointed at her too, it just all comes together. The camera loves her! Glad you found the same, always interesting to see how different people shoot/get on with someone you're used to working with. 
You're welcome!

yes they work if you get there for free - don't insure your gear - or yourself - don't eat - don't buy cd's / dvd's - don't pay for postage and packaging - don't pay for phone calls - website running costs - take into account wear and tear of everything from gear - pc - car - you etc...... not to forget income tax - gst - accountant fees etc.
a shoot could end up costing your something like $14000 if a car takes out your gear and some how you get missed. and your contents insurance will not touch you.
even if you don't see this you are using your gear for commercial gain so your basic insurance will say no. at a rough est - cheap insurance is around $3k - $ 9k depending on the risks.. (motor racing for some unknown reason is way up there on the risks).
That's a point actually, I haven't found any insurance company here who will cover your use of the camera when earning a cent under a contents policy.
Chris for reference, shot with Hattie tonight. She's wonderful, and a very interesting person to talk to whilst clicking away. She's also looking forward to hooking up with you again when she visits.
