Does anyone take Sundays off from all work? For those of you who work, do you charge any different?

When I was a working photographer, I'd work ANY day, ANY time someone was paying me for it, and I never charged a premium for Sundays or holidays...

Why so serious?

LOL same here.  When it comes to making $$, I work when the client needs me.

I always keep Sundays clear.  Not because I'm religious, it's because I need at least one day off each week!

If the job calls for it yes. Unless I'm sick or have other plans, I work every day. These days you have to, otherwise someone else will happily take your business.

Will I be getting paid?  Then yes, I'm there rain or shine.

Silly question.... Of course. As long as I'm getting compensation, any day is open for business.
