First time photo shoot.?

Recently a few of my friends have asked me to photograph them and do a few photo shoots. 2-3 are asking me to do their high school senior portraits. I have done some portraits/candid photographs of a couple of friends for a course online and most people love them, but I'm still a little shaky about what to do for senior portraits besides what I have done with the ones for the online course. Any tips for this (poses, locations, things I would need, charging them for the pictures, ect)? Also, another friend has asked me to do a photo shoot with her and her boyfriend before they both leave for the military in a couple of months. Any tips for this too? Much appreciated if you could help some.No negativity needed.xx
*I'm not a professional, so I don't have all the resources photography places and free-lance photographers have nor do I have 95% of the equipment.
*My camera is a Nikon COOLPIX l810

Steel wool photography.?

I'm trying to do steel wool photography and have a nikon p510. Can I use this p510 to capture a good photo of the effect? I know that I need 0 grade steel wool, a wish, lighter/9 volt battery, and and camera capable of taking this kind of photo.Is this camera capable? How do I need to setup my camera(shutter speed, lighting, etc.)? Safety tips? I do not have a tripod, what else can I use to hold the camera steady?

A beginner that could use some help with film cameras?

Ok so the story is i been trying to get into photography for over a year now.It's just a hobby i been trying to pick up. I Started out with a Nikon COOLPIX camera.It's a great camera but I am getting a little bored with it. The camera is only good for close range and you can't switch lenses. I decided to go onto eBay and buy a film camera for about $40, because I am a poor nursing student and I don't have the money to buy a $600 digital camera with longer lenses. Right now i have canon at-1, Minolta srt 201, and my uncle got me a Minolta maxxxum 5000i. Ever since I got them I've been trying to research them and So far i haven't had any luck. I decided to just wing it; I got 400 speed film 35mm.It seems that everyone was using 35 MM film so that's what I picked up. I have no clue if that was a good choice. I believe I spent about $20 on 4 rolls of film and I used one, took some pictures and of course me being a beginner; my pictures were not good at all.So that was another eight dollars down the drain. I was wondering if anyone has these cameras and could tell me what kind of film/batteries I could use? Where can I get cheap film? What's the cheapest place I can get my film develop? Through my research I read the beginners just keep the negatives and don't get the negative develop so you can save money and you can still see how your picture turn out. Not sure if that means I still have to send the film out to get the negative or if i just open the film up after I'm done. Any information would be awesome! Like I said Im a good beginner so anything would help! Thanks guys!

I'm currently looking for a camera and I've basically narrowed it down to these 4.

Nikon D7000 or Fuji Finepix S5 pro?

I been looking at these two cameras recently as an upgrade from my D3100 which i currently have.both cameras take the Nikon DX f mount lenses but i don't know which is really better. I know at the time that the Fuji was comparable to the nikon d300 and d200 but what about the D7000? my main reason for looking at the fuji is the price, as i could pick up a good second hand one for a good price due to the fact that the camera is discontinued, but the d7000 is still fairly expensive.i know that you generally pay for what you get, but i would like to know as if the fuji would be a good alternative to the nikon, then i may go with that due to the lower cost now.i know that fuji are generally not the 'got to people' for DSLRs but im just wondering!

not interested in the D5100/5200 OR D3200 as not a real upgrade as cant use AF lenses, just AFS.

i do like Nikon gear and if i had the money to buy a new Nikon i would, but would the fuji be a good alternative, or would it be sniffed at for not being very good?

be nice to me: P

What are the things about this photo that I could improve? (Experimenting with colour)?

This was taken with a Nikon coolpix 330. (I think)

I am not a trained photographer or anything like that. I just wanted to learn how to enhance colours. I probably overdid the saturation, but I'll let you make the comments.

Here is the photo,

Many thanks.
