Thanks for the tips folks.
This is gonna sound a bit sad but I don't have that many friends, there I said it!

So the opportunities for me to shoot at a friends wedding are gonna be hard to come by. I did approach a couple who are getting married next year but I have a feeling they will back out of me going along to shoot. Most likely because the pro won't want me there.
I have some business cards printed and my website will be online soon hopefully. That should give off a more professional images at least.
Maybe I am trying to run before I can walk, I don't know. I will see how the next few months go with my portrait sessions.
Cheers
Alex
