I spent about five years creating actor and corporate headshots. Actors and CEO's always understood about hair and makeup and would invest in themselves.

Occasionally a friend of a friend would hear that I did this work, and would enquire. I managed expectations by treating digital like film: providing a contact sheet of about 30 - 40 images with my reco's.

Then a young female friend of a friend wanted some pcs. I'm not sure what for.

"The last photographer was really stingy," she said. "I only got about 2,000 shots."
