I've bought various stuff from hong kong and it's been great. Asuming you aren't buying electrical items you shouldn't worry

Personally I'd suggest finding a decent studio. Add the rental cost onto your fee and off you go. I don't have anything for my portrait work besides my camera, though I want to get a nice reflector asap. The issue is using it. Can't hold it and the camera at the same time.

Ive emailed the editor of the community mag just now with some shots, I called her yesterday and asked her to consider me for a cover shot

Ive also got some info about the arts festival finally, so I have 4 months to come up with some really amazing work. The festival gets 30% commission if they sell, and I have to name the price I want to sell them for. Pish, Ill just be happy to get them on display

"Thanks for those – I love them all, but particularly the dog with the daffs. If it’s all right will keep them on file and then if the opportunity arises to use in the future I’ll get in touch.

Many thanks
