photography since 1955. I have no great resume just the litte guy!

Dear Charles,
The mobile lab concept is the only way that I can envision anyone
making a living photographing horses at shows. I have had a mobile
lab since I started in the 1950's, and I was the first photographer
to produce color photos in a mobile unit.
There is always room for a good photographer in our business. You
need to charge a fair price and deliver exactly what you promise.
I recommend using a 120mm camera and a professional strobe, so that
you can photograph both indoor and outdoor shows and have a decent
size proof for potential customers to view.
If you need any specific advice on film, or equipment please check
my website in the question section or write me again.
