How much do you guys charge for headshots?

[HOUSCOUS]

I have this client that I have photographed her wedding, and she came to me for business headshots. I am thinking $275 for 3 outfits and all the pictures in DVD. I wonder what you guys charge and what you provide if you were I.

[Ahh!]

If you check out Brad's Profile, his site has prices posted...I'm not doing enough yet to have a pattern or a package.

I've done a $99 special for 2 backgrounds (high/low) and two images on DVD in various resolutions, plus a pair of Facebook-ready with my logo slathered all over it for some shameless advertizing. For biz users.

I put together two packages using my pricing, one inexpensive one, and one with more features. These prices are for individuals, not for corporations. My pricing is on my website. In both cases the client only gets 6 full resolution images. In the first case he also gets 3 prints and a CD. Tax not included.

[Ahh!]

And Paco is making more money than I am!

Good info Paco. Thanks for sharing. I've only done one headshot session and charged more (probably too much). But they paid! However, this is a good guideline and I need to get my price down to "hire-able" fees.

$150 for two looks. Includes two edited final images per look.

So I guess I would be in line with Paco.

$75/hr with a two hour minimum.
No limit on looks. ( I may amend this if it gets to be a problem )
Bring your own stylist.
CD/DVD of edited images

This is an in studio price. Location is higher depending on distance.

Mine are $450 and that includes two looks and two retouched files. Sessions run about an hour.

[HOUSCOUS]

Great inputs guys. Thanks for sharing. : )

$100 per head studio session/outdoor session near me and it includes one full resolution file with a copyright licensing agreement. I don't give them full rights, I give them specific use rights (online, print, etc.). I post their full gallery and they can purchase additional files/prints of they need/want them.

[movingex]

Very good info here.

$250 for a one hour session and three retouched images. They choose paper (up to 8X10 color or B&W) or plastic (8X10@200dpi) with a usage release.

For business headshots it is $100. for two low res images on a disc. Fifteen minute session and they choose the two poses from the LCD on the camera.

Ming if they have to ask, they can't afford you!
Good stuff.....

Basically...

$99 for one look, one retouched image
$199 for three looks, three retouched images
$299 for five looks, five retouched images

Additional retouches are extra.. and CD delivery on the $99 is extra if I have to mail it to you. I also offer a two look for $150 like Scott does, but I don't advertise that one.

Man, I need to raise my prices!

All are photoshopped / color corrected / converted... many looks as you want, you style yourself...

30 min - $100 - 2 images (bw and color, cropped)
1 hr - $200 - 10 images
1.5 hr - $300 - 20 images

additional photoshop'd images $25 a piece..

Most of my shoots are in the $150-200 range.. hmm.. I think I SHOULD raise em about $50 / $75 bucks.. whatcha think?

I've been thinking about going to a flat $150 fee, then maybe $15 per image and let the customer decide what they're comfortable with...thoughts?
