Aimee:
I know how expensive RI is and how it is almost to spare time. But you have only one (is it two?) photoshoots to show for in your port. Lets build your port with some more TFCD work.

You are an accomplished photog who has mastered his art. Your pictures tell a story - make people look and wonder what is the theme. You know lighting, expressions, exposure, backdrop etc. My only complain with you is you married the most expressive model and made her your exclusive muse.

As for minimum wage - it will have to raised to $125/hr in your case.

You are a photographer yourself. You probably know that your portfolio needs upgrading. I do not see your face clearly anywhere. Why don't you do a few TFCD to refine your port. We can talk then.

Yes, you are charging too low. You are one of the most talented young photogs we have in the site. And your formal education shows in your pictures. Just couple of personal opinions - dont let photoshop be the dominant factor and maybe you could have done better by having proper lighting on the models face in this beutiful picture https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/p … 3#18349893 (forgive me if you intended it to be that way).

Double your charges for now.

Your work is way too good to charge that little! Don't be afraid of people saying no once in a while - you're worth more than that!
