Some of the responses in this thread remind me of our experience finding a wedding photographer willing to provide RAW images. The prospective photographers just didn't seem to understand that we were hiring them to provide a service to our specifications, and that we had no interest in justifying any of our choices to them. It was a very strange and sometimes frustrating experience.

Ultimately, we posted a detailed ad on Craigslist and (in-between hate mail and being flagged several times) were contacted by several interested photographers. The woman we hired did exactly what we wanted, for a fair price, and did a phenomenal job. We could not have been happier.

My advice is to post an ad on Craigslist detailing specifically what you're looking for. Prepare yourself for many prickly responses, and prepare to re-post after it gets flagged. You'll eventually find someone.

As an aside, we also required that the photographer assign copyright in the images to us, though we did allow her to use any images not containing people or names for her own promotional purposes.

Best of luck!

Not too late. My only advice would be to have a very clear (and realistic) vision of what you want to do with it while, at the same time, being open to opportunities that you're not presently aware of.

> I really wish there was a plan between free and 50G (now 100G).

Agreed. For those of us who use less storage (and especially 30 GB or less), Google Drive is clearly the better deal. Although others seem to have experienced problems with Google Drive, it has worked essentially flawlessly for me and, because of that, I plan to let my Dropbox subscription expire.

For every person who wants to keep 100 GB of data synched, I bet there are at least five who want to synch 30 GB or less.
