Good pricing skills are always an important ingredient of business success, yet in a lagging economy, they are even more crucial. When budgets are tight, photographers need to handle their pricing with more flexibility than usual, and a lot more creativity is required when negotiating with clients. Few photographers, however, master both skills, and many have no access to accurate market prices that they can base their quotes on, say Michal Heron and David MacTavish, authors of the widely used reference work PRICING PHOTOGRAPHY. In the freshly updated version of their classic pricing guide, they provide photographers with these three essential keys to successful pricing and negotiating.

“Heron teaches photographers how to systematically build the exciting, cutting-edge portfolio that advertising, corporate and editorial buyers are looking for.” —Photographic
