I go out and shoot 3 times or so a week at songwriters nights, and artist showcases, etc etc. Basically Nashville night life shoots. I do these mainly for free and put them up on my facebook and myspace. I had to start watermarking every pic. While its flattering so many people were using my images for their profile pictures I did get a bit irritated when very few gave me a credit, so now I have to spend extra time adding watermarks to every gallery I upload.
However I did get some work out of it. Im shooting all the still photos for a new reality show that is being shot in Nashville now about the music industry, so Ill actually get paid on that deal plus name on the credits of the show. Kind of neat, but ya watermark everything to make sure you get your credit.
