Preparing and packing for commission travel

[Michele Rushworth]

Thanks for starting this very helpful thread, Chris.

Instead of a portable printer you might find a laptop to be more useful for showing the client what the photos look like, with a USB-connected photo card reader. You could then tweak the photos, crop them, combine parts, etc. in Photoshop before showing them to the client.

Of course, this solution is a lot more expensive than a printer, if you don't already have a laptop.

After so long, it's hard to remember the details, but I know when I was with Schoeller, we made good use of these expandable tubes for travel to a client. You can add on sections to increase the length. Something tells me we used them for his tripod.
