    Hi all,
    Recently I took photos for someone, when you take your costs out ie prints what mark-up do you put on them?

    depends on the pics that were done ? was it a fashion shoot ? sports game ? PR Job ? or something completely different ?

    I would say 10x8 prints for €20-25 - but you could go lower depending on your clients budget.

    What about your time and captial investment? then you have post processing and the costs of delivery.


    Taking all into consideration not less than a 200% mark up on the cost of prints and up to 500%.

    Im not a pro, Amateur only.
    Say if a print costs you 19c (5x7) is 5euro plenty if its a 5 min job, ie function?

    It was a conformation, not studio just in their back garden.

    The standard basic 8x10 seems to go for around €20-25.

    But, if it's a paid shoot (ie, you're asked to attend, shoot, and then produce images), then that's normally a lot more than simply a per image fee.

    Padraig i'd be careful with this,As you certainly wouldn't want to overcharge them,The price paul is quoting are images done by a porfessional or someone who's making a living off photography,For a 5X7 €10 would be a good price.IMO

    Thanks, Yea, for an event covering I'd prob do 5x7 at 5euro.
    As for confo, 25-35 euro I guess
