Here are the questions that Marco answers in this episode:
Hi Marco, I have started to cover live events like sports, concerts, and festivals in my area. I really enjoy doing this kind of photography and want to grow this into a part-time business. But with the fast-paced news cycle, I have realized that you need to be the first one sending the photos out in order to be picked up by relevant media outlets. But shooting and at the same time importing, sorting, and post-processing the images with my MacBook Pro is currently way too slow. How do you do it and what are your suggestions for a speedy workflow on the go?

I am currently transitioning from being a hobby photographer to a part-time pro photographer and want to eventually switch to be a full-time photographer. As a hobby photographer, my friends and relatives always asked me to bring my camera and take portraits or document a wedding for free. But as they are my starting customer base in this transition, how can I manage to now charge them for the photos that they are used to get for free? Thanks for the wonderfully diverse photo podcasts that you produce each month!
