I have a Canon Rebel T3i. I am interested in purchasing a wide-angle lens and also a macro lens. I already have a Sigma lens for portraits that I really like.

What do you suggest I purchase? Mid-range price is what I can afford.

Thank you. Oh, I take wedding photos, grandchildren photos, and make money taking family photos.

I appreciate your two cents very much!

I hear you loud and clear! Thank you!

Maybe my question wasn't clear. I said I wouldn't give them the unedited "bad" pictures, like the ones with eyes closed. I would give them the good unedited ones so as to not have to edit, say, 200 pictures. ( I would give them a set of edited, quality photos).

I need to know if you would basically give the bride the CHOICE of the pictures she would want edited, and then give her the GOOD, unedited ones for her to do with what she pleases. Like in the old days you would give them a proof set and then they would pick what they wanted.

Thank you!

My partner and I shoot wedding, bridal, boudoir, children, etc.

In particular this question goes to the wedding photos. Personally, if I were the client, I would want to pick the photos I wanted edited so I can choose which ones I want for myself and family members.

My partner likes to edit what she likes and give to the client her choices.

The other question is do you give all of the unedited ones on the CD too? (I do take out the bad ones, the ones with eyes closed, etc.)

So two questions: Who chooses which ones to edit?
Do you also give them all the unedited ones that maybe they could use later on for holiday cards and calendars? I ask that because we did a wedding and I took tons of pics of all the kids and later I got a phone call and the family said they went through all the pics on the CD and make calendars for the family. Thanks in advance!

Thank you, too, for your comments. And read further into my lastest question/topic!

Thank you. I'm going there now! Love this forum.

When someone says to use off-camera flash (gosh, this sounds like a stupid question), that obviously means the built-in flash of the camera. Here's the stupid part: Does that also mean an external flash that's mounted to the camera?

Thank you. I appreciate your comments and I'll work harder!

Please critique.

Can someone talk to me about watermarks? Are they still in use? I don't see many pictures with them. Just if anyone could respond with any info on watermarks, I would appreciate it.

Thank you.

I hang it out in the direct sunlight, pinned by a clothespin and hung from the line, over a small ink bottle sitting on a fence rail, on a tree branch. Use things in your home and drape it over. Keep practicing and it turns out beautiful!

Do I need Photoshop to add Elements 10, or is Elements 10 a separate photoshoping product?
