Hi all, Here's my deal... I have a couple of clients for whom I do product photography -- small businesses who need images for their websites & promotional materials. Usually, they send me the items, and I charge an hourly rate for photographing & editing. It works pretty well.
Recently, one of them asked me to come to their place, and spend the day photographing a bunch more stuff, one-of-a-kind-type items that they have. And... asking what is my day rate? So. My question is, should the Day Rate = Hourly Rate x 8? Should it reflect a bulk discount from that price? Should I incorporate a mark-up that reflects the time I will spend in post? Or charge that time separately? What about travel? It's about an hour's drive away... Also, is this where I insist on special provisions, like only Norwegian spring water in the break room, and kobe beef sliders for lunch? (kidding!)
