So, I am just starting out and I need more people and subjects to practice on, but I also need better gear and equipment if I want to grow....
I am shooting for free and I have my first "client" on Thursday evening, an engagement shoot.
I explained I would take the pictures, edit them, and send files that would be able to share in email and on networking websites, such as facebook/myspace, ect. The files will be too small for printing. If they would like a printable image, pricing starts at 10 dollars per sheet. (define a sheet as 1 8*10, 2 5*7, or 4 4*6)
I would also like to put a package pricing plan together, something to encourage them to buy more and save!
example:
Package 1 25 dollars
2 8*10's and 2 5*7
you get the idea....
I am wondering what a good pricing plan is? I don't mind doing the shoots for free, but if the images are good enough they want them printed, I think I should be compensated for my time. This way, if none of the shots come out, nothing is lost, and I can take the experience and try to grow from why it did not work.
