Portrait Photography - Advice Needed!

[Joel Eade]

Do it for sure.....it will be fun and you have everything you need, especially the talent. One flash with a softbox will work probably.

As for the money ... How will customers get their pictures? Are you providing a digital image or a print or both?

If you a just taking (and processing) the images and then the clinic is providing the prints AND they are actually bartering with you (exchanging services rather than cash) I would ask for at least $500. That's a very fair price considering the value of your gear and time which includes preparation and time after the shoot to post process. If they don't like the original offer you can negotiate Maybe you could ask what the arrangement had been with the prior photographer?
