Only just found out that today is National Freelancers Day so I thought I’d share both sides of what today has been like as it’s sort of been a good balance between the good and the shite side of freelancing. On the bad side, I got asked to contribute to two national editorials and had to turn both down. One was for a commercial client who wanted photos within the hour to be taken and delivered to a national newspaper for 25 to 30 quid!!?? And the other was a national lifestyle magazine who wanted to license some Liverpool images for zilch.  On the plus side, I’ve sold a few prints, been asked to delve deep for a nice licensing job, had a client thank me for fab photos, did a nice little pr job with nice people and then this evening I’m shooting a comedian for an ongoing commission. Swings and roundabouts, the good, the bad and the ugly. Fairly typical day really and as much as it winds me up at times, I wouldn’t swap it for the world. Mmn, actually, let me think about that last bit…
