William I would add the following, never work for: Clients in the same union as you. Clients on the same listserv as you. Clients who are ex-photographers. Clients who ask "What's your lowest fee?" Clients who say "Cheque's in the post." Clients who ask you for the negatives/Raws. Clients who are that little bit too eager to pay for your lunch. Clients who say "You can use this project to get other work!" Clients who insist on reviewing every shot you take. Clients who think, because you're shooting digital, it must be cheaper. Clients who laugh if you say "There is a charge for preparing the Raws" Clients who say "Can't you fix it in Photoshop?" Clients who say "What do you mean by I can fix it in Photoshop?" Clients who say "What's this charge for Photoshop work?" Clients who ask for 100mb files. Clients who were born under a full moon.
