Hello Photographer,
It’s my pleasure to introduce myself to you. I am Raymond Erick a business man based here in Torrington, Connecticut. I’ll like to know if you will be available to cover some events for me. At first, I have this magazine which is yet to be launched to the United Kingdom and other European countries and I have just recruited some female models that will feature in the magazines front and back cover.
The female models have been invited to my office on the 11th of August for a photographic shoot. Please, I’ll like to know if you will be available for the photography.
Secondly, my wife’s birth day has been slated for the 17th of the same month and will need the service of a photographer to cover the ceremony as well. This is a great task and I’ll love know if you could make either of the event or both. Your urgent response will be appreciated. Thank you.

Raymond Erick

You can absolutely cover all those events for him

For a non refundable depost of $1,000 (for each event), and he will purchase all tickets necessary and have them fedex'd to you. Plane tickets will of course be First Class, non stop if at all possible. He will put you up in a local 5 star hotel, and have a limo waiting each morning to take you from the hotel to the studio.

Of course there's so much more that can be done if you really want to mess with him :D

Does it change every year?
