Pricing for Dance Studio?

[delizo23]

i have a pricing question, what do you suggest?

3 different dance instructors need solo headshots of each, for their dance studio. also, they want me to take like 20-30 shots of them teaching their classes. they would make a poster for display in the fron of their studio, with the shots i take. also, the car ride is like 45 min each way. and each shoot would be on 3 different days. the teachers teach different genres of dance, ballet, hiphop, and modern. how much should i charge for that? i need separate prices, one with just the headshots of the teachers, and one of the shots of them teach the class?

i would bring all my lighting equipment

here is a sample shoot that i previously did for free, because they are my dance studio, i breakdance.

i would probably deliver these kind of photos.

please, let me know what you think!

What is your CODB and COGS?

One invoice or 3 invoices?

How are they going to use the 20-30 of them teaching class, online? Will they use the headshots online? If so, how many monthly hits on the web site?

Ok, I'm back. A client came in late to pickup her images.

Cost-of-doing-business, CODB. Cost-of-goods-sold, COGS.

Pricing isn't something just snatched out of thin air. You have to charge much more than what it costs you.
