Q.	What are your qualifications? Have you been professionally trained or certified?
I have been a photograper for over 40 years and have extensive training too long to list here. My past clients include UpJohn, John Deere (motion picture work), Bausch and Lomb, French's, Answer Systems, and many others.

Q.	What are your rates?
Depends upon the assignment, I can charge by the day or by the image.

Q.	Do you require a deposit?
Yes - generally 1/3rd up front.

Q.	What packages do you offer?
Very flexible - I can do still photography as well as videos and can offer your images on a CD or DVD. We also have a web-based service in which you can go online and order additional prints in whatever size you want whenever you want!

Q.	How many pictures do you take?
As many as are needed! For digital studio work, I can work tethered to a laptop so that we can see the image right away.

Q.	Can I keep the negatives?
That can be negotiated upfront.

Q.	What is your photographic style?
Check out my web site at www.specialty-media.com.

Q.	Do you provide black and white photography?
Absolutely, at one time I specialized in B&W. With digital, I shoot color RAW, then process it into B&W on the computer - more control that way. For film, I can shoot B&W negatives or C-41 B&W (such as the Ilford B&W film) and have my custom lab do the prints by hand, although that is more expensive.

Q.	Do you use digital or film?
Both, although I'm shooting more digital now. It's the customer's choice.

Q.	Can I see examples of your work?
Check my website at www.specialty-media.com - I also have a lot of images with a stock agency in London - go to www.alamy.com and search for James Caldwell.

Q.	How far are you willing to travel?
Depends upon the assignment.

Q.	How quickly will I receive my prints?
Since I work primarily in digital now, the prints can be ordered online and can usually arrive in a couple days. CDs and/or DVDs are available directly from me usually within 24-48 hours. If your project requires 35mm slides, that is no problem and they will be available within 3 business days.

Q.	What makes you different from other photographers?
Are any two photographers or artists alike? I'm unique and bring my unique perspective to creating my images - check out my website and see if it fits your likes!
