Recently, I have had clients ask me about giving them a picture to post on their Facebook page, and I'm happy to do that. It fills me with joy that my clients love their pictures so much that they want to share them with their friends and family members on Facebook, but at the same time, I have no idea how to charge for that. So, I'm curious...how much do you think I should charge for a Facebook picture?There's a lot of work, time, and effort to find a great location that goes into creating beautiful pictures. Many don't know that it often requires me to work upwards of 50-60 hours a week when i'm processing and retouching over 15-20 Christmas sessions, Senior sessions, weddings, engagements, and infant sessions. I can give a low resolution picture to my clients to post, but it takes away from the brillance of a photograph.
So, I ask you my Facebook friends and clients, what do you think? How much should I charge for a Facebook profile picture? For all who respond, I will send a complimentary Facebook photo of your choosing!
I would charge the same amount as whatever your most popular print is. Ex: if most people order 4x6 prints, and those are $10, then charge $10. I think that would be fair and consistent for your clients. :)
ReplyDeleteI was just trying to figure out a way to justify the $$ for a headshot for my blog so this is very timely! I would be willing to pay $20 or so if you did a fun picture, say in an outdoor setting? I'm not sure how you were going to work the logistics of the actualy photographing. :-) Would it work for that too (i.e. a blog not just my FB page?)
