I do a few weddings here and there and some band photos for local groups. I know what to charge in these situations most of the time.

But I am being hired to shoot a reunion at the end of may. I will be there from Friday to Sunday shooting various candid photos of the attendees.

In the end they would like the photos to be on Cd's to be given and sold to attendees on Sundays.

So I am wondering what would one charge for such a thing? Is there any good articles out there covering this sort of topic?

    Brian - I agree with David - search, search and more search :)
    Also, 'google' on some of hte local photographers in your area to
    get a idea of services, prices, etc. A lot of photographers who I have
    spoken to have done this - price out the competition - and have
    obtain some great information by doing so.
    Good luck with your projects - sounds fun ! clap.gif

    Well, I think you can get a lot of good information from the people here on dgrin, and i think there will be value in the discussion, so I hope that people reply to you with specific ideas. I don't really know, but what I do know is that you were asking the question without looking around at what's available here on dgrin. Like the sticky thread at the top of this forum!
