Re: Sports Photographer Needs Advice


being a 69 year aged grandpa I have shot all our grandkids games for the last five+ years,, the first year I only covered my grandkids and and never saw anything more than a P&S camera at the games,, discussion the coaches confirmed they do not have anyone covering their games or has anyone ever asked,,

so the second year I figured I would include the other team players,, I post the keepers on Picasa and let all the families view them and provided each family a DVD at the season end,, I have never considered myself a pro photographer, have never been paid for any of my photographs and never attempted to make a living with my cameras,,

I thought (briefly) about charging but retired very comfortably when I was 61 and certainly do not need the income,, if there every was a pro shooting any of our games then I would only be covering my grandkids and so inform the parents,,

I have had a great life and many a friend and figure this is one way of returning something I can do without trying to make a another nickle,,
