![]() ![]() Think of everything you’ve spent on your craft during the past year. No matter what the reason is for wanting to start getting paid for your craft and starting a business, a few things SHOULD be considered before you just put random numbers on a price list and open up shop.Įvery business or hobby has a cost, and if you want to either make back what you’ve spent, or make a profit off that tenfold, then you MUST determine what your costs are. That’s not even to mention the countless posts I see from aspiring photographers on Facebook daily asking the question of what to charge (with lots of bad advice might I add). I only guess these circumstances because they are partly true for me ( a photo school grad who had a camera who thought it would be easy to dive into business and start getting paid). Or perhaps you decided back when you were a child that photography was your calling and you want to cash in on that dream now. Maybe you’ve been a “mom with a camera”, following your kids around to document their lives, and thought you might as well be getting paid for your mad skills. LET ME GUESS…YOU GOT A FANCY PANTS CAMERA FOR CHRISTMAS OR YOUR BIRTHDAY, STARTED TAKING NICE PHOTOS, AND NOW PEOPLE ARE HARPING ON YOU TO START CHARGING. ![]()
