SO I did this wedding the other weekend and the B&G got back gleaming with joy and new tans but that is besides the fact. They looked over my pics and have already looked over the pros and they found some that they really loved in my colledction. I was a little surprised but my question is what would you guys charge for pics that they would like to buy? Obviusly I would do a little touching up on them cause the exposure def. needs them and would also add a smidge of PS love to them.
any suggestions would be great thanks alot

were you there as a guest or as a second shooter? If you were a guest I'd consider it a compliment, part of your gift and only charge them for prints...

well they are my friends but I did do their engagement pics and they paid me quit well for that but to answer your ? I brought my cam because they wanted me to shoot pics because they like my style I guess haha and they just did a full package deal with catering and everything all inclusive or they would of just have hired me.

Personally if they were really good friends I would just charge slightly more than what my costs are. You still need to recover whatever your costs may be, plus its always nice making a little bit of a profit, and I'm sure your friends aren't expecting anything free or extremely cheap priced from you.

20% on top of the print price that you pay...

Normally for clients i do anywhere from 500% for the smaller prints and 150% for all the larger ones (Just so clients dont GASP at how expensive they turn out to be!)

This way your making a bit of money but your also not feeling liek your ripping off your friends
