Let me know if you decide to do that and ill come by for some pics.Most DSLR's are good enough to make amazing pictures. The two biggest factors are the person taking the picture and the lens they use. I can if I used one of my fixed focal length lenses (35mm or 50mm primes) or the kit lens pretty easily on a lot of my photos just based on distortion and clarity.
On a side note, as soon as I get more time off on the weekends, I will be out in the canyons with some of my gear. I've been toying with starting a small 'business' shooting riders and surfers/tourists up in PB. I have one of the credit card readers and an SD card that uses wifi to immediately transfer photos to my ipad. Would have an instant payment/email delivery for $5-10.
