Hey there
So I was contacted by a woman who wants me to shoot her companys corporate event. She wants a group shot, 150 of which need to be printed that night and sent home with the guests. She also needs me to take individual and couple shots to be displayed online where the guests can order them later.
I shoot portraits of children and families mostly, a few events and some models. I have never had to print something on-site so this is where I am stuck. I don't want to accept this job until I figure out if I can afford to purchase everything needed to do so and still make some sort of profit or break even.
So I guess I need to know how to go about doing this. I guess I would need to bring my laptop and a printer, but can I use a standard printer? Will a standard printer print 150 photos? I guess it would but would I need extra ink? How do YOU guys do this?! Ha. Thanks a ton The good thing about this job is that it would force me to get the equipment I would need to expand myself a little more. I never jumo on gigs like these because I dont print on site! Thanks a ton
