Just wonder if you could provide me his contact details. It'd be great if he could help us to take some pictures. Many thanks.

As much as we would love to give and be generous with our time and effort ( and in your case, mad skillz in capturing the moment ), sometimes it's just not the right thing to do. There is no such thing as only taking, we have to give as good as we get. Thanks for the favors Hex. You're very much appreciated.

In the end i found I cant balance what I earn with thetime and the money i spent, I almost gave up on photography. Luckily i met some one inspire me again at the time i almost quite!

If they think they need you, they'll appreciate you more. If you start out offering free services, they will think they're the one doing you a favour. And I always quote this "Friends are friends, business is business. They never mix". Well said Jon. If they think they need you, they’ll appreciate you more.
