  1. I highly recommend commercial photographers price their work not just based on a flat fee plus expenses, but charge for usage as well. In fact, ad agencies and design firms EXPECT photographers to charge for usage. Shouldn’t Anheuser-Busch pay more than a local brewer for a photo that would get way more exposure when used by A-B? Here is another way to look at usage. When buying a song for .99 cents on iTunes, does that give the purchaser the right to use the song in a tv commercial? No, because the .99 cents covers a license for personal use. Commercial use of the same song will be so much more.

    Please consider joining the photography trade organization ASMP (www.asmp.org) to learn how to price your work in order to have a successful business. I went to one of their national conferences years ago and learned so much when they showed invoices from various photographers. You may think your work has a certain value, but your photos can be greatly more valuable to clients. Please research pricing so you are paid for the true value of your photos. And one more tip: you should get paid a lot more money when a clients wants all rights!

    Keep in mind what I wrote above is for commercial work with companies and agencies.
