Some of us that read this blog make a living or some extra income from shooting events. These events require specific tools: such as good, fast lenses at certain focal lengths. Today I received a question from someone that wants to go into event photography but wants to know what type of gear to get.
Hey Chris,
I’ve got a Canon 40D now and friends, people I meet and family are all asking me to shoot their events.
