night club photos (NWS) (2)

I agree as well.

I duno, this is kinda the only income I'm getting at the moment whilst at uni, I really don't want to risk blowing it if we have a disagreement... I imagine the club promoters can be pretty ruthless!

I know the right thing would be to sell the images, but at the same time I really don't mind him having the high res copies - it would be pretty cool to see my work on stuff.

Woop, just bought a 60d!

I agree if you depend on the income. What would be fair to both parties would be give him the high res stuff now, and just let him know up front going forward that the high res copies are generally a different cost above and beyond.

I think this would be fair to both sides?

Enjoy the 60D!

Yes, definitely, make sure you're getting paid for it. If they start distributing the photos as part of a promotion or through commercials or the like, you're not getting paid for it and they're getting free advertising media, basically. Like I told my friend after the first time, I did a shoot and provided the photos for free, but going forward it would cost more, albeit at a lower price than I would charge anyone else. Seriously, you're getting into licensing issues here. If a media outlet takes your photo and redistributes it without your consent or if the venue makes money from "selling" your photo, what recourse do you have? Protect yourself. They should respect you for being a legit business man...

Liked this on your Facebook dude - amazing capture.

Took the 60D out for the first time tonight - what a machine compared to the 1100D!

Hey anyone have a nightclub contract they don't mind sharing? Looking to lock down this place and could use a have with this. Thanks

You should talk with with the promoters. Face to face.
They expect to be free. You basically have three options:

• give it for free
  
• give it for free and make an agreement, for the next time, they will pay for the high-res photos. (the safe way)
  
• demand more money

My manager has just emailed me asking for high res images of all my work because the office want to use them for print and presentations... Should I provide full sized 100% quality exports or shrink them a little?

Explain to the manager that the agreement was that you take the photos and upload them to facebook or whatever for whatever price you charge. anything extra like that you have to charge for it

I just can't help but feel they expect the photos free with me kind of being a proper employee? Get paid weekly through my bank and shiz... Definitely going to ask for something extra though. Don't ask - don't get I suppose!

Going to test the 60D's built in wireless flash control tonight... Any tips?

Anyone who's had experience with it - reckon it will be able to hold itself in such a dark and changing atmosphere?

Don't bother!

Epically in the dark your camera relays on the focus assist from your flash to focus. Having the flash off camera will remove this

Well that's different then, you are paid as an employee not as a freelancer?

So they may quite well be entitled to all your images while your being paid, it is much different than a contract situation.

Ahh I see. Not even sure to be honest! Guess I kinda am a Rough Hill member of staff... Do you reckon I should just leave it and send the images then? Then again, it only says this on my invoices: "Services Photographer Full Moon @ Leeds the 2012-02-16 £30"

They're wanting this full album:

On another note - the 60D has really impressed me tonight! The rapid shooting and 12800 ISO are unreal.

Does anyone here change their Camera Calibration in Lightroom?
