Recently I did a favor for a friend and did a promo shoot for her dance company's upcoming show. It turns out that they were overwhelmingly popular, to the point where other dance companies have contacted them asking who took them. According to my friend the number of dance photographers is quite small and the number of good ones is even smaller. I want to try my hand in it, but have absolutely no idea where to start with pricing as I've only charged someone for photos one time, a friend who insisted on paying me for her graduation shots. I've mainly done it as a hobby and never considered monetization, until now .
These weren't studio shots. They were outdoor, portraits of each dancer posing -in costume- and a couple of group shots. It was all done digitally, no prints. I've googled the topic and haven't found many good results. Can anyone help me shed some light on the subject (no pun intended, well.. maybe a little)?
