Headshots and photo rights

[Christie Photo]

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but 15 minutes worth of work.....$25 is pretty good.

Yeah... that part is OK. But then there's the part where you open a file, process it, do a bit of retouching and prepare it for printing. That should be good for another $30 or so.

But I'm still not sure what do do about giving her the rights to the photograph.

If she can't USE the photo, then it's just plain silly for her to do it.

What I do is offer a "business session" for $85. I'll make 8–10 exposures, I select the best view, do general retouching and supply a file by email suitable for business card printing or press release. It's like a glorified passport session with a small file instead or prints.

You know your pricing is just right when 1/3 of your prospects turn blue and start a choking fit when you tell them the price. :thumbup:

Haha...i will remember that!
