    Hi all,

    I have a few questions.

    Im getting my website up and going and we have a "meet us" section with everyones photo in it and a paragraph or two all about them. Right thats fair enough.

    The huge thorn in my side right now is two of the ladies on the team are camera shy.


    So photographers here's my questions.


    1) Would many photographers do this type of work or will I find it difficult?
    2) The girls are going to want to look their best, would it be normal for a photographer to take half a dozen photos from all different angles/lighten until we get a shot they like or will this cost extra?
    3) If the girls photos still dont come out great can we photoshop them?


    4) Roughly how much would something like this cost me? Theres 5 of us on the team. The first 3 of us will just get the photo taken with no messing, the 2 girls are the problem.

    We only need digital copies too by the way, no printing etc.

    There may be privacy and data protection issues here. If they don't want their photo there then they're in no way required to.

    Well they arent over the moon about it, but its not going to turn into a legal issue either if thats what you are suggesting? Besides, Im not an a$$hole you know, I wouldnt force someones photo online if they werent happy with it.

    Well as long as they aren't under the impression that this is required of them.

    I think any photographer that takes on the job would ensure that the ladies are happy with their photos. A good photographer will be able to put them at their ease and get the photo which they will be happy with. Best of luck with your website.
