I haven't worked for money in over thirty years, but I did a lot of event photography back then, some weddings and very little portrait.  Concerts and sporting events were fun then, I don't think I have the energy for that now.....

Why so serious?

Small commercial work, photographing a farmers land.  I've photographed someones fine jewelry for insurance purpose a few weeks back.  Hmmm there have been a number of goofy odd jobs I've had.

Lately, company events. Used to shoot a lot of Little League pictures, not formals, but action shots....

Corporate shoots, I've had a sporting gig for high school.  I've been asked to photograph a sweet 16 birthday.  I have some Real Estate agents who have hired me to take photos of homes.  I've done some insurance work and stock photography for a couple local companies here in town.

So how much would you charge to be a sky diver photographer?  First off would you do it?  LOL

Not much, these days I'm just focusing on weddings and portraits.

Baby showers, birthday parties, and corporate events.  However prefer weddings.

I have a couple clients here locally that I've been shooting all their product photos.  That's been keeping me busy.
