    Pricing photography is not about the hourly rate, but about the usage. If the client is planning to use these images in an ad that cost $20,000 to run in a publication, or a book/brochure with a print run of 10,000, or a billboard campaign, then your pricing should reflect these things. Usage is the word.

    Whatever you do, don't sign a contract that says "work for hire" if you do, it means you give up all rights to your images, and it also makes life hard for other photographers who actually have to make a living a this business.

    John Harrington has some good advice about pricing photogrpahy.
