great images!! not a pro & i don't make any money from photography, so take what i say with a grain of salt #whatdoesthatevenmean #cliches...but i do know how stressful it can be to put together a porfolio of work that people will judge you on. what is this portfolio for? for fun or potential clients/jobs? if it is the latter, what type of photography do want to do? if there is a genre/type of photography you gravitate to, that probably should make for the bulk of the work in your porfolio...

So, here's the quote from my friend for the 6D, brand new:
2233.44 with lens. Before tax
1696.49 body only. Before tax
The lens sells for about $650, you think I should get it with the lens and then resell to soften the price?
I already have the 24-105L.

You can get a brand new body from cl for 1450

Only one that popped up but if you wait it out and shop around I think it'll be better to get one from cl vs paying taxes.
As far as getting the kit, you'll be paying $206 in taxes, resell at $650 on cl so you'll be in $1,789 roughly, wouldn't be worth your while imo. If I were you I'd just get the body from cl, I bought my 6d for $2100 from someone on cl, brand new and he bought it off adorama when they had a special.

Just a simple pic of the peace bridge here in downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Not a professional or anything like that.

Speaking of marketing, what type of marketing do you guys do?

thats pretty dope. Would you include the couples name anywhere on there or just your photography business?Thinking about doing something like this for my Wedding Photography.
I do no marketing for the gigs I've gotten. Usually just word of mouth. Or they see me with a camera and ask what kind of work I do. I have the online portfolio so they can see examples.
Just recently a guy handed me his phone asking to take a pic of him, his wife and their newborn by this fountain. I had my camera and eye-fi so said I can take a nice pic and just text it to him. He called me later that week asking to hire me to I can shoot a birthday celebration for his parents. Ended up doing it this past Saturday for a couple of hours.

I have the eye-fi also and I do the exact same thing, usually at this spoken word gig I have every tuesday. that works pretty well.
I'm working on trying to find a faster process

Saved up to get a cheap Nikon D3100 (figured it would be a good starter camera, image quality isnt the best tho), only been doing photography for a few weeks, figured I'd show yall some shots from yesterday.

@ElderWatsonDiggs Good looking out on the tips/advice. I went ahead and copped the A6000 and a 50mm 1.8f lens. I'm really impressed with it. I know EWD was sounding like he's was on Sony's payroll to some but the videos and links he posted were definitely worth looking into, lol.. They're not lying when they say the auto focus is fast. I like the apps you're able to use, like uploading straight to Flickr or the motion app that pastes the multiple pics together.Here's a few I took tonight. The camera has this Auto ISO feature that you can set the range between 100 to 26000 ISO. I have mine set to 100 to 6400. The night pics came out at 3200. Maybe I'm too critical but I wish I would've set it lower than 3200.

Untitled by 305Flash, on FlickrAnother cool thing, my boy was telling me to invest in a wireless remote to set off the pic. I went to the store to look into it and the lady told me it was $30 but said if I had a smartphone I should download the Playmemories app. The app allows me to use the phone as a wifi access point. Now I can use my phone as a viewfinder and press a button on the phone to snap the pic.
