I've searched the threads but haven't found an answer to this question.

First, I'm shooting high school sports, basketball, football, volleyball...etc. I'm selling quite a few images, and lately several 16 x 20 images. But I got asked how much I'd charge for a disk with all the images I'd taken in the season of a specific player. They're wanting to put them in a digital photo frame. I'm in a quandary about what to do. First I don't want to sell any of my high resolution images. I'm considering selling 3mp images with a watermark. For this particular player, the quarterback, I've shot 316 images.

My questions are:
How do I price it?
Is 3mp too large or too small?

Thanks ahead of time for your insight.

I have only done this a couple of times, and what I did was charge $250 for a disk of 20 images low res (nothing printable above 5x7) and $6 per additional image. I had images on my web site and the parent would choose the 20 images and pay for the disk any other image was tacked on to the price. It worked well and had several parents buy from that season, I mostly shoot D1 now so I selling is not allowed. My price includes creative fee and processing of images. Also I do give the option for high res files at $75. I also get a contract signed that specifies what they can do and not do with the photos.
Good Luck

Thanks that helps. I had no idea where to start.
