Many of the comments on this forum about the "business" side of photography are the reason so many people go to Walmart for $6.95 for their portrait pictures.
I am still confused at why it is so expensive for portrait photography. Many comments on travel and such thoughts. I travel to where I work too. I don't charge work my travel time.
There aren't many photographers around where I'm at. I see the prices they charge and I can see why.
$150-250 sitting fees? For going to a studio for half an hour while you take our picture? I'd have to work half a week to pay you for a half hour's work. It's a bit ridiculous.
Same with all this photographer rights stuff. Sure, it's your picture, but it's my little girls and I don't want pictures of my little girls floating around everywhere uncontrolled by me in this day and age.
