Hi Stu,
I’ve bought a few bit’s and bobs on ebay from China/Hong Kong and have no probs, I’m sure some people will recoil in horror at the thought of buying cheap from China, but, like yourself when you’re doing it on a budget, needs must!!!!
Best of luck.
Thanks for the input, all advice welcome. I’m making some enquiries at the moment and waiting on some phonecalls too, so like you said I’m doing my research bit forst before I make up my mind.
The reason I asked in the first place, is that in an ideal world I’d go off and get my degree in Photography and get a job where I was able to enjoy getting up in the morning doing what I love and be able to make a decent living at it too!!
But, as we are all too aware this is far from an ideal world, so I don’t want to “waste” 4 years doing a degree in one thing only to find out at a later stage it’s basically useless, as there are little or no jobs in the field of my choice. Now before everyone in unison says “education is never wasted”, I completely agree, but, there are plenty of educated people with degrees and masters queing up to sign on and even more are flipping burgers, so I suppose I’m viewing this as a one time oppertunity and just want to make the best choice I can.
I’ll let you know what I choose, I seen a flyer for night classes in brain surgery ………………
I really like it!, it’s clean, simlpe, uncluttered, and your work is very tasty too.
I am currently in the process of trying to get my own site set up as well, but am relying on friends ( who keep stringing me along) as I don’t know anyone who can do it and all of the professionals charge a lot more than my pockets can stretch to. Can I be really rude and ask was it expensive to get done, you can PM me if you don’t want to broadcast it.
I may be out of line here but, am I mistaken in thinking that this is a website created for people who are interested in Photography?? so, where would someone go to find someone who might be able to help with getting a Wedding Album done cheaply in these hard times??
The guy simply asked a question, are you interested in the job, yes or no. If you are insulted by the offer, or consider it a waste of your time and skills then leave it alone, don’t bother to reply or degridate the very notion that someone should dare to ask.
If it’s not for you then fine, but just remember, “everyone had to start somewhere”, if someone is interested then let the couple decide whether or not they are happy, by having a look at some of his work. If they don’t like it, fine if they do, then “they” are the ones who chose him!!
