Current introductory special
For Transportation Photography, I charge $75 dollars for a 1 hour shoot. Low-res Proofs will be sent to the client and each photo that is selected in High-res will be an additional $15 per photo which includes extensive editing of course.
If 3 or more Photos are chosen, the client will have the opportunity to purchase a cd of upto 20 unedited High-res JPEGs of choice.
Rig Photography is also available. Contact for rates.

What do you think?
What should I adjust?
What should I charge for the CD? $50?

I don't know about the rest of it, but I would never hand out unedited high rez photos with my name on them. Good luck!

Good idea. I will remove that portion.

I saw that thread and it has great advice, but I would think today that most people would prefer to pay for the acutal file so that they can post online.
Im trying to work on finding a happy medium.

I couldn't figure why you would say that. Then I realized that I didn't include this in the list of what I give them:
"I also include a folder of web sized images because I don't want them using some one-step app to resize the profiled print files before they post them online.
So I do give them both printable files & web images, but I try to reduce the opportunities for them to screw them up."
;)

Oooo I see. That makes sense. When you websized, is that 1200 or 1600 on the longside?

Bimmer, You're in Palm Beach Gardens for all intent and purpose. I know the area well, I grew up just south and PBG High School. Just East of M Trail. Hit me up with a PM and lets chat!

I would charge a flat rate($100?) and give them digital files at full res, just charge enough that your time and gas will be covered..


Canon > Nikon
