Couldn't agree more. I was the unofficial tog at a friends we'd in last year when I first took up photography. Stressful and tiring kinda covers it.
Would never be in a rush to do another and certainly not as the main tog.
Congrats. I have that flash and a Jessops one.
I'd recommend the Jessops one if I'm honest, as it's cheaper and does a decent job. Infact I'm probably gonna sell my 430 as I just never use it. Only use my Lencarta Safari ringflash or a Elinchrom Dlite 100's for shoots now.
Ping me a line if u need any help. You may need more than a flash gun for lighting tho. Ring flashes are awesome, or studio lighting. Perhaps look at hiring a studio for a few hours, as you'll also benefit from someone there doing all the lighting arrangements so u can get on and shoot.
If anyone's interested, I've uploaded a handful of new pics from today's shoot with Holly Gibbons.

Cheers mate. Nope not yet. I tend to either use a ring flash or single beauty dish for lighting. I like to keep things simple, but I like your thinking.
If anyone's interested, here's a pic from my shoot last night #NSFW. Jenny James in a PVC maid outfit.

I own the majority of the work so can do what I like with it.
Had thought about a calendar but I'd need to sell a good 100 or so to make it worth while.
Thankyou:)
Yes cost me a small fortune to start with but it was the best way for me to learn.
I only pay now when I'm shooting specific stuff, such as my latest project where I'm doing some fetish / latex content. It's good to try your hand at different styles so you can attract a wider...
Was her bedroom. Done a few shoots there actually. Great natural light!
I attended my first amatuer model shoot in June 2012, shooting mainly pinup. After doing a few of those, I was hooked, but wasn't progressing very far. So a fellow photographer mate suggested that if I wanted to further...
I hear a lot of stories about togs and models shacking up, which is fine if that's what floats their boat. The issue is the industry is so tightly connected, that you only have to f**k up once and that's your career over before you started. I'm really selective who I shoot with to ensure I keep...
