I here I am killing the industry?

Cool. I sorta misspoke.. I "meant" to say $300 seems to be around the norm for the day.. I was thinking $100hr for 3hrs. After I reread my post, I realize that it sounded like $100 for the day. DOH!

Many of the photogs I meet in Houston pay $75 and hour. I pay $100 which is just lil more. Check out mt site www.beautyinart.com

Have you read ENVY mag in Dallas. That is the magazine I shoot for here in Houston. Fun group of people.

I need to send this to a couple of photogs that I 2nd shoot for. LOL

BTW: I think your price is decent..It's certainly not bottom feeder pricing nor is it highend. Seems to be around the norm for midrange photogs. .My prices are similar here in D/FW...but albums and CD of images and large prints are extras. which adds at least another $500 or so to the base price.

Thanks for the links.. And Yeah.. I have exchanged some emails with Envy Mag before. Also EnvyUsModels. I need to actually get out and shoot with them sometime. So far, I have been tied up with other stuff everytime something has presented itself.

Good luck!

That caught my eye also. I pay and charge wwwaaaayyy below that. If I had to pay someone even 50 an hour for the whole event I'd have to charge wwwaaaayyyy more!!
