<p>I still use a Compact 300ws along with my Acute2 1200ws kit without an issue. The use of hyper sync will cut the output by several stops but that is to be expected. As long as you have a back up flash tube you should get years usage out of it. I've only had to replace one tube in about twenty years but that was because of my own clumsiness.</p>

<p>Considering the location, the Industry the Client is in and the economy, I would think that $500 a person plus about $2500 for licensing would be where I'd quote. What about the time it takes to process, edit and deliver the images? The labs in my area (Atlanta) charge $75 an hour for editing, so I'd quote the same. Only you can determine your CODB and pricing to get the job and feel good about the fee. </p>

<p>The button is to reposition the handle. Simply turn the handle counter clockwise to loosen, place on light stand, position flash head and tighten securely.</p>

<p>I would certainly limit the usage to the list above, no Advertising or other applications without further compensation. Ellis has suggested a great resource in the Getty pricing guide. Let us know how it works out.</p>

How do you shoot with back-light?
tony_clark replied to gayana_grigoryan's topic in Lighting Equipment
<p>It would be easy to recover the highlights and bring up the shadows in CaptureOne Pro. I imagine it would be even better if you lit your subjects with a little flash.</p> -
<p>I wil not format a card until it has been downloaded to the computer and then copied onto two separate hard drives. Besides, I cannot imagine a wifi connection fast enough to transmit to begin with without a lengthy delay. As it's already been pointed out, cards are cheap, quick to be replaced with little delay in shooting and pretty dependable.</p>

<p>I would agree with Michael, imagine if they line up 50 people on the first day and they expect you to shoot until the last one is shot. You will need to set limits to things like time spent on set, usage and term of use. Otherwise they may assume that they own the images and you for the day. You can get to the same number by charging a $1500 Creative Fee and $50 per person plus $750 for editing and delivery of images. Let us know how it works out, both negotiating and then the shoot.</p>

Suggestions for a lighting kit for small portrait studio?
tony_clark replied to jerry_cargill's topic in Lighting Equipment
<p>There are always a couple Profoto 600/300ws Compacts on eBay for good prices. I have an Acute2 kit and just added a 300ws Compact which will get plenty of use. There is no reason to not take advantage of used gear as long as it's in good shape.</p> -
<p>There is no shame in monolights. I own a Profoto Acute2 1200ws with three heads and have owned their Compact 600ws kit and D1 500ws monolights in the past. I'm always changing up my kits and think the D1's are great lights and durable. I may try to make the commitment and but a D1 again.</p>

<p>Curtis said internal and external marketing so I responded to his specs. I've shot People, Fashion, Food and other subjects, so I think that I have a decent knowledge of our Industry. Perhaps I would price myself out of this project but I wouldn't feel bad about it. Perhaps after a conversation with the Client, I would justify a slightly lower fee but I'm going by the original post.</p>

<p>It is depressing to read how little photographers regard their Intellectual Property. I would have the client commit to a specific number of images, say up to ten images and a fee of $1500 for use in Marketing for two years. I would shoot the event, focus on the manor in which the client will use them and deliver proofs for them to pick up to ten images for their application.<br> Do we not understand that what we produce has value? Whether it's grip and grin, Marketing or Advertising, there is value. Do you think the client will receive free services from a Marketing Firm, Advertising Agency or freelancers? Otherwise, you are handing over their content for free.</p>

HELP! Pricing interiors shoot for hotel chain
tony_clark replied to regan_wood's topic in Business of Photography
<p>I have no experience in this specific area so I'd suggest looking at a Stock Agency online calculator. I'd be charging a Creative Fee plus usage similar to the number that Getty Stock or other calculator. You are creating custom images and should price accordingly.</p>
