I'm on a bunch of the other boards (used to be on here too, but can't remember my login info) offering the same thing, but figured there might be a few people that haven't been bothered by me :-)

Anyway, I'm a photographer here in Portland, Oregon looking for vehicles to shoot. Preferably highly modified, nice looking vehicles. If you have a car that I'd really like to shoot I'll do it for free. If you want your car shot, but it is not something I will use for my portfolio, I will charge you $200 (hell of a deal really). You get 10 professionally edited images and a disk of all the images from the shoot.

Here are a few examples of my work.

Seriously, that's way too cheap. Your time + equipment + skills all combined are only worth $20/hour?

Do good work, charge a fair rate. What you've mentioned is WAY too low, and will take bread out of the pockets of others who try to pay their bills by doing photography.

my $0.02

mmalore

bummer...

mmalore

just trying to build my portfolio man. plus there aren't a lot of people in this area doing this type of photography for a living.

mmalore

plus, i need bread in my pockets just as much as the next guy...

But charge what you're worth. If there aren't many people in the area doing it, it means you can charge *more*!

Your pics look good. $100 is too cheap. Charge $250 at least. If someone is willing to spend $250 to get their car detailed, they'd certainly willing to spend that to get it professionally photographed.

mmalore

good point. i raised it to $200.

Times are tough... I cut my rates on side work to keep business levels up. If a discount nets him business, he gets to keep eating. Nothing wrong with that.
