How much should I charge
Hi. I have been approached by a major book publisher to produce a series of photographs for their forthcoming book. They have asked me what my going rate would be. I have no idea what to charge them. Has anyone any ideas? Thanks in advance.

An average for freelance photographers works out at around £25 per hour plus expenses. That is where I would start as a guide but it also depends on what the customer requires and it's worth asking about their budget as well. I have a minimum rate that starts at £95 as most jobs will take more than a couple of hours and includes further expenses. It all depends on how much you would like the job and whether you are prepared to accept their terms if they fall short of yours. Hope this helps.
What are you expected to do - such as travel a little or a lot, hand over copyright and prepare CMYK files?
Wedding photography is a different genre - that can involve 2 days post processing after shooting the wedding.
