What Should I Charge?

I am having an exhibit of my bird images (24) at our local Audubon. The exhibit begins this Friday. It will be my first exhibit. All (24) of the images are 13" x 19" in 18" x 24" frames. The prints were done by me on my Canon Pixma Pro9500 (pigment ink) on Ilford Smooth Pearl. The frames are Nielsen and the Mat board and mounting board are acid free. The glass is non-glare UV.

I would like to know what you think would be fair pricing. Any input would be much appreciated. I must give 20% of the price to the Audubon. Here is one of the images

That prints size and birding = alot of money spent on equipment and time and effort to capture a shot like that,

i would say 150-200 range.

What's your cost per print including frame, matting & glass?

To add on to this....
Calculate the cost to you, for all the stuff above, then get about, 30% of that (since 20% of that, will drop as you add your portion of the money) and from their, add one what you think you deserve for the photo, then calculate 20%, and see if your still making as much as you would like

$250-300 each but be sure to put something behind the photo that identifies you and the photo and say "Number 1 of 10"

Thanks all for the advice. A friend just sent me this link http://www.danheller.c​om/biz-prints on the subject. I found it to be very informative.

$259.

Just a guess, but somewhere around there

Thanks all, tonight was the opening. I set the price at $220.00. I had 24 images hanging and I sold 7 of them.

nice just under 30% got to be happy with that

Congrats Paul, you've certainly earned it....

Congratulations on being in the exhibit and for making sales. The picture of the bird in the OP is beautiful.
