Mr. Smith:
You have attained the skill level most others dream of. Your post production talents are awesome as well. Your port tell a story in each picture. You definitely are at the top 10% in this site. To play the devils advocate - your captions could be a little more original than "Assassin Queen" or "Vintage assassin". You are a multi-talented achiver - I am sure you can do lot better.
As for your charges - for professional shoots paid by the client - about USD 300. I am guessing that equates to 275 euros. And about me keep going - well some poms smile are not too happy with me. Thanks anyways!

Thank you for your kind comments - I shoot for fun and have never charged (apart from my sports photography) so maybe I should take this seriously. smile

Thanks once again.

Craig:
You are an accomplished photog who has mastered his art. Your pictures tell a story - make people look and wonder what is the theme. You know lighting, expressions, exposure, backdrop etc. My only complain with you is you married the most expressive model and made her your exclusive muse.

As for minimum wage - it will have to raised to $125/hr in your case.

Your themes are thought provoking. I am not sure about your lighting though. How about we do a few more TFCDs to get my lightings up a notch.

You got nice proportionate curves. Personally, I am not a big fan of freckles though. Your genre should be more focused towards videography As for photography, 50 lbs/hr

Based on your quality, experience, everything else you bring to the table (I mean to the studio) irrespective of the theme.

Again, I am not very talented - but I am blatantly frank and honest! But please remember photography is subjective and opinions differ as does the definition of beauty!

With your level of tallent?   How can you plan out a shooting project and include all  agency needs and  time.    On top of that  the  studio cost is variable from  shoot to shoot..   "How could you know"

You are correct Mr. Rose. I wouldn't. Good luck to you though.

Your portraits are awesome. But are you a little over-dependent on post production? Since you have a home studio - do you wanna create some diversity by working on TFCD with some select models? Again, just a suggestion - this probably double your earning potentials. W/o all that probably $60/hr.
