What's Your Artistic Value?

I often hear question on how much should you charge your photography specially in events like weddings. It's simple, what level is your artistic value? If you think it's cheap then charge 1,500 for a wedding. If it's above average then charge accordingly. Some charge 8,000 to 10,000, some are higher at 15,000 to 20,000 while some are charging as high as 50,000 to 80,000 a wedding.

Read tips from such sites as the following:

http://digital-photography-school.com
www.betterphotography.com

These sites will teach you how to compute your overhead expenses like the worth of your camera and gears,  how to price according to your competitors, how much your clients can afford, will you scare off potential clients because you charge too low or too high, etc. etc.

There are many sites that can guide you how to price your work but it all boils down to your worth as an artist after you deduct all of the necessary overhead expenses.

Speedo

Been shooting with the "no credit photographers" lately. Here's Mr. Speedo wearing almost yellow, passing over signs that are yellow, overtaking a parked car that's not yellow.

Very late posting. Not time or too lazy to re size.

Baguio City Market Fire

On our way home with batteries exhausted from shooting the Panagbenga Floats and Drums & Lire competition and an all night drinking party with fellow photographers, we saw the market ablaze. I was able to get a few shots before my battery finally ceased on me.

Wasn't able to shoot the burned out sign. I left Sir Monching with the Mayor still shooting. More photos from him. Some photos from Waffy too who's batteries are as exhausted as mine.

He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother

Mr. Aaron Tudlong, a former NLRC sherif and a father of two was only 27 years old when he was diagnosed with Kidney Failure in 2006. Replacement of the kidney was the best option, however, efforts to find a donor was next to impossible. As his condition worsens, he had to give up his job. After 3 years of battling with the disease, resources of his family and friends have been depleted and became hardly enough to cover the thrice-a-week dialysis, additional medications, not to mention other family needs and the education of his children.

Hence, this appeal to generous individuals to help him with his expenses and to sustain his family's needs. Hopefully, enough funds will be raised to set up a small family business that will further help sustain his and his family's needs.
