Linda:
These are real estate agents. Get their cards. Do the tape recorder
trick and ask each his / her name - left to right or right to left
and do it the same order for each picture.
Get the group lined up, Tell them you need to get their names
accurately so would they please give you a card and state their names
and then just go down the row. Stack the cards in the same order and
clip each group of cards together with a note about frame number /
image number.
Hope this helps,
James

Hi all,
I know this is probably a dumb question but here goes.
1) I have a chance to do a free lance job for a local paper and it
may lead to a part time photography job with them. The thing is, it
involves taking pictures of group of real estate agents at an
Octoberfest for 2 hours mid-day at a church--ok, they might be
relaxed a bit, but not like at an evening or weekend event.
2) I am not overly fond of taking 'people' pictures, I much prefer
scenery but if I want this job, then I HAVE to do people. I have
seen photos in today's paper of another group at a special event and
they are all in either groups of 2 or 3, facing the camera--to me
that is boring boring boring--I intend to call the paper today and
find out if that is what they want, if so, they shall get it.
3) Now comes the big problem for me, I am absolutely HORRIBLE at
names, and I need hints on how anyone on the list gets names of
people while in groups - I know ask, but hints on putting the
pics/names together.
Any kind of help would be appreciated--I think the group will be
about 50 people. Thanks in advance for any and all help. (Am I
being to paranoid about perfection here?) Linda
