So here's the deal:
My 2nd cousin wants me to photograph her ENTIRE family. She's figuring that there will be about 27 people.
Here's what she wants:
"I am only looking for digital prints and would like a hi-res CD/Flash Drive so I can have a large canvas made and some smaller ones. I am willing to pay an additional fee since this material would be copyrighted to you and I don't want to abuse your talent. I actually enjoy and prefer your editing style when it comes to contrast and color saturation versus a lot of other people. I can also provide a large flash drive to you if you prefer to share them that way. Tim works for a tech company and gets the super cheap. I also have DVD-Rs if you will need those.
1 - Full Family
1 - Kids
1 - Kids + Spouses
1 - Grandkids
1 - Grandkids + Spouses
1 - Grandkid boys
1 - Grandkid Girls"
I've done portraits before, just not of 27 people, usually 4 people or less. Also, it would be about 200 miles total for me to drive there and back home, which is 3/4 of a tank or about $30 in my Honda. And I do already own the equipment necessary to make this shoot successful.
I wouldn't consider myself a professional, but I'm not a complete amateur, either, and she knows that. While I have no formal degree in photography yet, I have taken several photography classes and I know my camera like the back of my hand.
I am at a complete loss. I have no idea what to charge her and it kind of worries that she's family. Help a girl out?
Thanks much!
PS-I do have a full time job aside from my photography, if that matters.
