Pricing beginners vs experienced

[imagemaker46]

Charge as little or as much as you want, with a full time job you have the option, if you feel you are good enough to compete against the professional wedding photographer you were working with then charge the same, if you don't feel you can compete with that person charge less. Setting your own prices has nothing to do with how experienced you think you are, it has to do with how experienced you really are. If you do charge the same as the person you were working with be prepared to produce the same quality, if you charge alot less, be prepared to deal with a pissed off professional if they start to lose clients.

No one can tell you what to charge or what you are worth, only the quality of your photographs will dictate that.
