Hello everyone,
I have done a search, but I am still at a loss as to how to price a new opportunity.
I have been appraoched by a few local real estate agents, and 2 construction companies about doing some photography.
For the real estate, I have decided to go with a scale, based on either value or square footage, plus milage. The agent will get a disk with the images and a licence for use for 1 year in newspaper print, mls, website.
For the construction companies I am having a harder time. I have a company who builds modular homes, and some of the photos are needing to be updated badly. The homes are still on the lot. These photos appear on the website, and possibly in brochures. The thing is, some places only need 1 or 2 photographs, others need the whole house.
I am thinking for that side, maybe I should do an hourly shooting rate? That rate would include the post processing on the images, as well as putting them on disk. After that there would be a licence fee for the individual images.
Both of the construction companies are relatively small. Does anyone know what a suitable licence fee is for an image?
You can buy a stock image of a house for $10. Some of the calculators say the average price is $500.
Maybe I am approaching this all wrong. ANY ideas, suggestions, links are appreciated. They want to meet Tuesday, so I have a busy weekend of research and planning ahead of me.
Thanks,
Kristal
