Portrait Parties

[CompooperTeacher]

Have any of you ever attended one of these?
Have you ever been the host of one?
Have you ever been the photographer?


I'm this close (fingers just a few millimeters apart) to purchasing a Canon Rebel XT, and I thought I could do something like this in my neighborhood to offset the cost of the camera.

What has been your experience? If you were the host, how did the "rewards" work?

Thanks for your input.
