I may have overstepped here... A couple of weeks ago, I went to a local Motocross and took some pics... They turned out pretty good, so I sent the Owner a letter of interest, and about 5 pics that I took earlier.. Just got a call from him.. He wants me to be the sole Track photographer for a Memorial Day race - about 2,000 racers coming in from several States! I have a little 15' camp trailer and I envisoned taking a couple of pics during the day, processing and printing that afternoon, and having a helper sell them at the trailer on Sunday when Im out taking more pics.. He also wants me to take the Trophy Presentation Pictures at the end of the meet.. He said he'd hook me up with the local Sports Photographer so I could take some shots for the Newspaper coverage also.. What did get myself into?? I dont' have any doubts that I can cover the event with decent pictures, but ...... can I run a business like this at the spur of the moment? There's a ton of stuff I'll still need to get... a couple printers & supplies, another Mem Card, Signage, business cards with Website on it for after race purchases... I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas I can get from you folks that have been there... Here's what I sent him....
