I
decided
that after 25 years of Home Portraits I need a break, I’m too old, too
fat and too lazy to have to pack up my studio equipment each time to take them off to
do a home portrait, do the shoot, then re-pack everything and take it back to the studio
only to reassemble it all again, time to make life easier.
So I
bought the biggest roller bag I could find, then bought a complete second set of
studio lights, stands, cords, tripods, slaves, extensions etc. packed them in
the new bag along with a spare digital body. Now I can just leave it packed
all the time so when I get
a location shoot I’ll just grab it and go. Ahh life is good.

Location, Location" in the Oct. 2006 issue of Texas Professional Photographer.

"I Need a Re-shoot Because I Should
have Hired Robin in the First Place Special"
I hear it all the time: "I had my uncle (or family
friend, or another photographer) photograph the most important day in my
life
and now I haven't got any good photos!"
Now you can hire Robin to re-shoot
your formal wedding photos, it's not too late to get some great wedding photos.
