Free Portraits

[Billy ken]

I'm a newly NCFE qualified photographer looking for volunteers can i do that here?

[Margaret Pilkington]

Billy, it might be a good idea to outline what your volunteers would be doing, where they would be doing it and what the aim of the volunteering is.

You might find that people are a bit reticent to get into something without knowing if there is a 'catch'.
I hope you do not mind me offering you these suggestions, but I just thought they might help to clarify what you are doing and may lead on to success.

Thanks Billy

[Margaret Pilkington]

I am pleased you have clarified that Billy.....I wasn't implying that there would be a catch, just that many folk are a bit cynical when something is free(unless you can qualify what it is for....and you have done that very nicely. thank you)

[Billy ken]

just need the volounteers and were to post the thread and thank you..

[Margaret Pilkington]

You won't get into trouble posting it in 'anything goes'...and it might be worthwhile posting it in Questions and Answers......like 'would you be free to pose for a photographic portraits?'
Or 'help a budding photographer'.
Hope this helps a bit.
