Tip #4: Print yourself a set of cards with at least your name, email and the address to your photos on the net. They come handy when explaining your project to your subjects and when telling them where they can see the photo. They make you look more professional as well and help you promote your project to friends and family. (I printed my cards after getting fed up in using pen and paper for a dozen of times.) Use your full name and a credible email address (firstname.lastname@somecompany.com is certainly more plausible in a card than iamateenagermutant@hotmail.com) to gain trust and credibility from your subjects.

Check out Moo cards: they are cool, reasonably priced for the treat and you can print your best photos on the back of your cards for a reference of your skills.
