    Hi all,

    I have my first real commission photo shoot this week.

    Its for an aspiring singer songwriter and she wants a number of pics for her portfolio to promote her.

    Using my D200 with SB600 and Nikon 18-70, 28mm AF, 50mm AIS, Sigma 105mm lens' to choose from.

    She wants a location shoot against street/industrial background to depict her gritty style.

    As a keen amatueur I am beginning to quake a bit, so would appreciate some seasoned advice.

    My questions are:

    1. which lens best for job and what aperture to get mac IQ.
    2. Best to use flash?
    3. Suggestions?

    yours humbly,

    TaffyTim
