Hey guys; I've gotten pretty good at pricing my portrait and wedding work as there is a very concrete formula to figure out how much I need to charge to turn a profit.
I'm going to start venturing into selling more of my landscape work at local art shows and such. How do you even begin to price them? If I run the same formulas as I would for my other work, the overhead would include travel expenses and the prints would become unbelievably expensive.
How much markup should I be applying? 100%? More? Less?
Examples based on things I currently have hanging on my own walls:
Example 1: A 12x24 piece of wall art (photo printed on aluminum) costs me roughly $70 at cost.
Example 2: A Framed, double matted 10x15 metallic print costs me $45 at cost.
Where would you price these? How would you arrive at those numbers?
