10 Pricing Challenges and Strategies for Photographers | LIGHTING ESSENTIALS For Photographers Let’s start out with a universal truth. A digital photograph costs nothing. Nothing to make, nothing to store, nothing to transfer and nothing to see. Before you hit the computer and spit out your soda, I am obviously not talking about the gear and lenses and lights and more… just the taking of the image. In the days of film, there were costs involved in the very creation of the image. But, we all know that it isn’t that simple either. These days we shoot the images, take them off the cards, archive them on two different drives, make additional backups, process the images from RAW to some sort of raster image, clean the images, set the white point and black point, color correct, sharpen and add contrast to the flat digital file. So in reality, while the click of the shutter isn’t a cost item, all the peripheral time and knowledge and equipment and constant updating of skills does have a cost to it. Most sophisticated clients know that. I want a Toyota Sequoia. Nope. Total is $3500. Good.

A Photo Editor - What To Charge – Advertising Photography @marco aurelio, I do not believe that there are any more people trying to get into commercial photography by way of assisting then they has been previously. Over the years I have seen the same number of assistants stay in the industry for years before being able to make the transition to shooting. Although the ability to make that transition is now even harder then say 10 years ago. There are still the same number of photo and art school grads coming to NYC at the end of every semester thinking that they will take NYC by storm and be the Next Avedon. Only to find that they are competing with Avedon’s old assistants for the assisting jobs or maybe even shooting jobs. Those new assistants after a period of time realize that school did not prepare them for the real world, and they either suck it up and find a way to give 200% everyday or they move back to the farm with a degree in photography that they can use to each other aspiring photo students. Sorry if I got off topic a little.

Business While the news industry is still in an uncertain and uncomfortable state of flux, one certainty has already emerged: journalists can no-longer just be journalists – they must be entrepreneurs too. It’s the difference between the ‘passive’ freelancer who writes to a few editors and waits for the work to come to them, and the ‘active’ freelancer who runs themselves as a mini-business. Until j-schools start adding business skills to the curriculum this will be something we’re all going to have to teach ourselves. 1) Diversify If you went into journalism to become a TV news reporter, and just a TV news reporter, the sad news is those days are over. In order to maximise your income, you will need to diversify your skills base. To Jonathan Fields:

Best of 2010 - Our Favorite Photo Blog Posts of the Year - A Picture's Worth | PhotoShelter Posted by: Grover Sanschagrin Date: December 21, 2010 | 14 Comments It’s been a busy blogging year for the photography world. I don’t know about you, but I spend so much time deep into blogs (writing for the PhotoShelter blog, as well as reading/learning from so many others) that my wife is expecting that I’m going to end up in a TRON-like blogging situation at any moment now. What better way to pay tribute to the web’s best photo blog posts of 2010 then to write a blog post honoring them? To assemble a well-rounded “best-of” list, I asked the PhotoShelter staff (all 17 of us) and many of our favorite bloggers to contribute suggestions from stories that captured their attention during the year. The result, a list broken down into 9 different categories, is a collection of useful, inspirational, funny, smart, creative and simply brilliant posts that make us all a little bit smarter, and a lot more motivated to keep seeing, shooting, and sharing. 1) Photo Marketing photo by Allen Murabayashi
