Sr. portrait pricing?

DanielB · December 3, 2005

Sr. Pictures. well its getting to be that time of year again and people are getting ready to graduate and parents want Sr. Pictures. well, my brother happens to be a Sr. in high school and i know many of his friends personally. My question is, some of them have asked me to do their Sr. pictures, how much do i charge them? like i said, i've known them for a while. and i would have to rent lighting for it. how much is "reasonable" for a family friend but that i could still make some money?

thanks guys,
Daniel

You can find some examples on the 'net.

Jim Fuglestad, Shay Stephens and also my site.

In the end, you have to decide what the market in your area will bear, and what you're willing to work for.

All the best,

Event Pricing
Great suggestions on the online resources. What about pricing for events such as weddings or sporting events. I have a lot of friends that say "Hey, can you come out to my kids game and take pictures for the team ?" Any thoughts or on-line resources would be greatly appreciated. - jerryr
