I'm just starting to take in clients for headshots and fashion, I think I've got good rates nailed down, but I'm concerned about payment and releases.
A. Do you accept payment BEFORE you shoot or AFTER? A deposit?
B. For fashion and headshot clients, should a release be involved? If so, what kind?
When I was designing websites, I got ripped off a lot. Mostly due to my inexperience - and at the time, there weren't a lot of places to get advice from working professionals. I'm hoping to avoid wasting time and getting burned in my photography career.
I apologize as I'm SURE this has been covered, but I hope to get some good advice - TPF users are great about that.
Thanks!
