6/2/12 I've got some time on my hands so I'll bring back this ole thread of mine.  Let me set your rates! Get in again if you did this before smile

Imagine I got a big cash stack!  Let me tell you how much I would be willing to shell out -Or- if I would just trade with you and keep my stack.

I will give you a suggestion on what percentage of your work should be paid vs. trade.  For example:
30%/70% - Paid vs. trade

I see you have a good eye and good computer skills...your port is not making me break bread, though.  I'd like to see a bit more.  Can I get a trade?

My wallet is still heavy

No dough! Not willing to pay you yet.  I should be able to get something trade worthy.  Too much competition out there. 

I think my wallet is missing...must be near the Colinas side of Oxnard

Your work is good and clean.  But you and I know that L.A has a lot of great photographers.  If you were in Arkansas, I would break bread, but you would be a very good trade.

I still got money...and some very good photos

You definitely are on the paid-only scale.  I see you have a specialty and if I need one of those shot, I'm paying!

Please except my offer of $250 for 4 looks.

Uh oh, I need to be put on a budget

No dough! But I think a trade would produce something good.  You look upbeat and that helps.  I see you're new...I would suggest that you trade as much as you can until you get some great shots.  Then the money will come!

Saving my money, for now

I would offer trade. I will learn a ton because you are experienced.  But no one shot grabbed me. 

Learned a lot, but still have some money to spend

Close, I mean, real close! I'm a little hesitant.  I like to see range or variety, I guess.
I would ask for a trade and see what you said.

My money looks the same, but I might not get a shoot

There's a lot that I like about you. Cute, energetic, red-head, open minded, young...
I'm paying! $150 for 3 hours...but of course, there will be some nudes involved.
