How much can you CHARGE? 💲📷💲 

Who the hell writes off all their gear in a year 😭

I remember doing a wedding a few years back. After everything, I was talking to the groom. He was saying some of the guests were annoyed "the photographer was in every one of my pictures" He had to remind them that he was PAYING me and my photos were priority. Some people don't see the value in certain things.

Dang turns out I was charging lass then I should. Makes sense why it didn’t really seemed worth it to me… thanks!

Important to pay attention to your competition these days, too... although you're not looking to undercut, with the whole "everyone's a photographer" movement, there's going to be a lot of people trying to undercut YOU.

they : we need to book you for wedding photography.. me : so you need pipes...

If you don’t have a full frame and red rings or g masters and you r been shooting for under five years don’t charge more than 50 American an hour and sessions don’t go over 1k it’s all still practice and you can’t deliver higher quality once you get a full frame and at least 25ish mp and a better lens then you can start around 80-120 imo for protraits or start charging set prices which are a lot more profitable then you can start tagging along as the seccondary photographer at events or start doing modeling shoots or car shows or sports just accrue as much experience as possible and once you get past this point you get to the 3-5k for events and 500-1k normally for a shoot I personally am a portrait photographer and although I have an r5 and two red rings and my nifty fifty I only charge two thousand for a full day of shooting for weddings but I do minimal editing since I don’t believe in altering images too much I do touch ups and yes if they want a certain editing style for certain photos or photo segments I’ll comply but I won’t do all of them if the style is too artificial I understand my own beliefs about photography devalue my work in the current market but I am ok with that anyways it also depends on where you are in cities you can get weddings for 8-10k with video included or sometimes even just photos know your market my reccomended prices are just bare minimums and assuming you’re still learning

It does. I was actually trying to figure out how much to charge someone for a drone shoot. Thanks.

Love the Dancing in the Moonlight instrumental track overlay. Takes me back to an edit of mine

Man you are really helpful

Very helpful😊

Simply - Charge a lot Or do a lot

Thanks for this ♥

Good luck pulling that in Europe, bud. The cost of everything is the same in terms of gear but the pay you should charge at the end is never going to be 100$ or euros

Bro every time someone says, plumber. I get anxious.

Thanks 🙏🏽

Some charge for editing differently from retouching

All of this before you take into account what the clients intended use for the photo is. The worth of a photo is determined from the potential reach and you could charge differently depending if it’s only gonna be used on a Facebook profile picture or on a time square bill board advertisement. But I saw on another of your videos that you already know this. 😅

I have problems with this kind of answers when I ask about how much should I charge. Everybody say "Oh you have to consider your time and your gear and your experience :)" but I'm like... HOW do I put price on time? How MUCH should I charge for an hour? How much should I charge for my expertese?

Thank you

Please take me, i wanna work with u😢

Can u help me to get a course for photography 😊

Yeah, right. We could only wish.

Match demand. Do it for dirt cheap to start out and then once you gain customers and experience, you’ll get really busy and raise prices to match demand

And you may end up with a price that people think isnt worth yr service

❤

I don't think that you should include your gear and software into the price. I mean ... If you can do a job with a 1000 $ camera and a 500 $ lens, why would you charge your client the fact that you bought a 5000 $ camera and a 2000 $ lens for no other reason than GAS :)? This equals to the full-blown creative guy, who shoots super stylish and unique photos with his 20$ film-camera. Should he charge less?

If I were to be interested in photography but not having a High Budget What would you recommend ( Side note My phone's camera is trash ) Cheap And Reliable

I always offer for my work for free because it's hard for me to charge I had someone once offer me $40 for a days session I didn't take it but that seemed quite low

No lmao
