Oh wow, what an informative video thank you! I'm in my 50's and back in the late 80's we learned as we went along, so glad that in todays world many up and coming creatives can see videos like this one and learned ahead of time. A while back I did work for a local magazine and the rate was in the low $1K for a whole day of shooting the spread and cover(shot on film)and that was just for the photographer they paid the talent on their own. I guess nowadays with digital its a different way of dealing with it. Keep creating great videos Sir!

TOTALLY BANG - ON the nail!! and it goes for the same as real estate sales people.. (I'm not one but...) Not every day or second day or fourth, fifth or even a week later do you come in contact with money like if you were getting paid by the hour... People who hire a photographer - regardless if skill level - should be very well aware and prepared to pay a substantial amount of money to have such talent fulfill their promotion or advertising banner's needs. We photographers get paid one day - $10k and six months later, might see another contract worth 5k or whatever... People on the "OUTSIDE" NEED to understand that we do NOT get paid every single day - $80 or $100.00/day like they do... Figure it out ppl! What Daniel Says makes PERFECT sense!!

Thanks, Daniel! Sounds perfect to me. In my business, it's always "What do you have?", "What do you want?", "When do you want it?", and importantly, as you said, "No intellectual property changes hands until I've been fully paid." I do the same thing with a 50% deposit up front, with the balance due when I'm ready to deliver the files. If you don't follow simple rules like that, you can lose a LOT, and fast!

Enjoy these videos with your insights & experience regarding photography business. I'm not doing any "large" projects but what I've experienced you are dead on with how you need to be with a client. Feel if everything that the client & self expect is discussed upfront it makes everything more enjoyable for all. One type of photography that I did in the past and don't believe I'll do again is weddings. I'll work as an assistant or second shooter and let someone else deal with all the details (and headaches) after the wedding day. No problems being given a checklist of things I'm responsible for doing or certain photos that need taken & then later either shadow main or go off to get other shots depending what main photographer wants. And must say I've found most problems come after the wedding day from family (mostly both or one Mom) rather than bride or groom. Go figure

Sage advice and wise words as always Daniel. I've had a couple of prom shoots where it's just been a case of turn up, take shots, get paid and leave. The highlight of my 'career' so far was to shoot a British bulldog stud, a breeding bitch and a French bulldog stud. The shots were to be used for advertising purposes. No worries with payment, just don't let dog hump your leg, watch out for surprises on the lawn and keep the treats coming.👍

Its a great talk. One thing I would add is that for magazines, they already have a set fee for a lot of their work. If it is your first time working for them you can ask how much is their budget for editorial or how much is their paparazzi rate for shooting celebrity parties. I used to pick up work on the side and it really helped me a lot when things were slow. I know in the beginning it is so stressful to find out how much to charge! Thanks for all the advice

Good info and as a professional student at the school of hard knocks, I recently did a wedding shoot, for a relatives relative. The up front money kept getting delayed, but it was "family" so I stupidly let it go. I did not have the heart to say no wedding day Photos to the bride so I took the photos and was promised by the bride,groom, mother of the bride etc that I would be paid in full as soon as I edited them, an outdoor wedding at 2 pm next to water so there was some editing to do, however my knowledge from Daniel Norton photographer about lighting really helped with the family photos. Needless to say, to keep my relative out of a hat field and McCoy battle, I ended up giving them a cd. When I was working as a mechanic I stopped working on families vehicles on the side for the same reason, you aren't appreciated or compensated for your, time,talent, equipment and skill. After this video I know how to deal with the next photo shoot I do, (hopefully never another wedding, I will refer them to Vanessa Joy!)

This is all stuff I have in my contract. I do not let them take all the image on a hard drive though. They license the images they want after reviewing on my website. I have them as low res so they can download and use for mock up but to get the high res images they pick them and let me know. I retouch them and deliver the final high res images with the usage rights as a separate document (with the images represented on the document). I only had a large book publisher take the images once and then worked with their license for usage. They rate was fair and the art director was very trustworthy. Everything else has been smaller companies where I have to educate them on usage rights payment on top of my rate to just create the images. Anywho... it is always good to hear validation from others that my process is sound and is how others work. =) love your videos. thanks for sharing.

A couple years ago I was watching a documentary on TV about a New York photographer. One job they were scheduled to photograph included a Big Name singer. Everything was set up, the crew was waiting... and waiting... and waiting... Finally the Big Name showed up for the shoot. The problem was that the catering company, crew, studio rental, equipment rental, etc. were now on overtime rates. BUT the photographer had not included anything in his contract that covered all that overtime! The long and short of it was that the photographer had to pay ALL of the overtime costs out of his pocket which meant he actually lost money. So that taught me a lesson about including overtime considerations in my quotes. Especially if the shoot includes a Big Name. Terry Thomas... the photographer Atlanta, Georgia USA

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I will take your advice, add some applicable laws from Germany and review my contracts now. Some magazines try to pay you with exposure. I did that once and I had the cover of a fashion magazine plus an 8-page feature in the same publication which made me feel very proud back then, yet it didn't pay my bills. I think one needs to create work that serepates you from what others put out in order to have more success and to be able to make a living off it.

My wife is a freelance wedding photographer, doing her own photo editing. We have packages (2 hour, half day, full day). Also, we get 50% right after signing the contract and the rest when delivering the final, edited images. So far, we didn't have any problems. Oh, and we charge 20% extra if we are not allowed to use the images on our website/facebook/instagram because that means we have to spent time and potentially money to make up for that.

A tremendously interesting video. It did raise a number of questions. Do you use a spreadsheet to help you create the estimate? If so, is it based on a template we can source? (Maybe you want to sell one of these.) Do you show the client the markup on each item? If not, how do you handle that troublesome “I had to pay a bit more than the estimate “ situation? Same template question for the contract or does the client provide the draft?
@DanielNortonPhotographer4 жыл бұрын
I use a word processor- but photo estimating software does exist. You should check prices before putting in the estimate- only should your charge, not the markup - typically the estimate will allow for up to a 10% increase in costs without client approval - typically the signed estimate is enough of a contract for the work I do

Oh! Would it be possible to get a few photographers on at a round table discussion to talk about current magazines and magazine pay rates. I have been hearing a lot that magazines don't pay and that more and more published paper magazines are asking for photographers to pay to be published. My circle of photographer friends is small so it would be great to hear from a larger selection of people who are actively being published and hear their tales and what the rates are and what they have experienced.
