Ive been into photography for about 3 years now. I havent taken a class for it but I once worked as a photographer for Picture People and Ive been doing loads of research on digital photography and studying countless photographer's photos online. I want to start my own buisness here in my small town but before I do anything I want to expand my portfolio by taking my friends and families photos for free. Since most of these people are on MySpace I was wondering how I can advertise this on a bulletin and have them take me seriously.
It's an excellent idea -- building a great portfolio is your #1 task.
Make sure you have anyone you photograph sign a Model Release.
This makes sure everyone understands what the use of the images will be.
I don't know what you mean about MySpace -- talk to your friends and family in person.

I'm just starting out and don't really have the money to spend on something expensive. I mainly work with friends and family, but thought it would be good to have a contract. Thanks for your help.

Want to take good pictures with my new Canon film SLR camera. Enrolled in SCI Training and was WAY more info than I wanted. Just want to use my camera and take really nice pictures of family, friends, children and pets.
There is more to photography than just taking really nice pictures. That is why SCI was way more info than you wanted. But, you can go to most of the camera and film manufactures sites and they will have links to photo study tutorials. I have included a couple below. You might consider picking up a photography magazine from your local magazine rack at the grocery store then consider a subscription to the one you prefer. Good luck and happy shooting.
