I agree with you that the photo makes the point. So you need to figure out a way to differentiate yourself enough that people will pay for it.
selling photos for in my opinion below market value. I have discovered there are plenty of schools in my area that do not have a single big lens on the field. Those are my low hanging fruit whom I\'m going after this fall. Might have to drive a little bit, but the fruit is out there.

the point is If parents can get photos free and post them on flickr, facebook, etc. why would they buy your pics ? The reason you never see professional photogs at these lacrosse games is the parents are right there on the sidelines unlike a HS football game.
If that pic from a $150 camera convinced you ..... good - post your results (P&L or pics!)
ok, here\'s another LAX pic from a $150 camera -- for \"your case\" !
