The Basics
I have put together some guideline prices and fees for my commercial photography services to give you an indication
of how much I charge. The exact figures depend on many factors, such as how many images you want and how you want to
use them. I always give clients a full breakdown of costs in my quotations and will clearly explain all the available
options that might best fit your requirements.
The Photography
My aim is to provide a service that fits your needs. I supply traditional or digital images for commercial organisations
throughout the UK I also provide any expertise you might need to get the very best
out of them.
I can provide photography services at an hourly rate with the minimum being 1 hour;
1st hour £150
Additional time £75 per hour or part thereof
Basic Day Rate (8 hours) £550
Half day £310
Note: Minimum half day for photography services outside of London.
NB - Precise rates vary with the number of images required, and their anticipated usage.
Expenses
Travel is charged on a mileage basis, except in the London area where this is usually waived.
Overseas travel is by special arrangement. Additional studio setup (props etc) is charged at cost by prior arrangement.
Your Images
I supply images in digital form on Cds or photographs using traditional methods. I will usually supply high resolution
digital files in TIFF or Photoshop format at a 'print ready' resolution of 300dpi. JPEGs, other format files and other
resolutions are no problem.
Additional specialist image manipulation (Photoshop) is by prior arrangement and depends on the type of work undertaken.
It is charged on an hourly basis at £60 per hour or part thereof.
Photo Usage Rights
There are several different categories of image use such as:
as a one-off in a leaflet, newsletter, website, press release or in-house magazine; and/or
kept on file to appear several times in different publications; and/or over an annual or biennial cycle, including
use in brochures, websites and exhibition stands.
The rates below reflect Category 1 (single or limited use)
The table below gives an idea of extended usage rates, however, I will always provide a quote to match your specific
requirements
