I am on the swim team for my high school and throughout the entire season I have also been taking pictures of the swimmers. I put lots of work into shooting and editing and I would say I take professional level photos. I want to sell the photos I took of the swimmers to their parents and I don’t know what to charge. $1 a picure? $5 a picture? $50 for 150 pictures? (also the gear I used was a canon r7 with an ef 85mm 1.8.)

    i know people who go around and do this for cheerleading competitions. they charge $100 per photo printed and the parents pay it if its a good photo of their kid that they won’t get again. they leave these competitions with thousands. but there are others so its quite competitive.

    you are undervaluing your time and skill WAAAAAAAY to much if you think your work is only worth $1 a photo. at $1 a photo you might as well not do this and work at starbucks. you would make more money.
