Thanks Robin - I'm shooting film as they may also want slides for a paper
catalog as well.  Besides - I'm behind the times and the only digital camera
I have is a Canon XL1 video camera!!  Not quite made for digital stills!

I usually charge a set fee of $100 per Hr, plus matrials with a minimum of
two hours. You may wish to charge in 15 minute increments for the work in
photoshop. Why not shoot it with a digital camera? That would shure reduce
the amount of work you would have to do. Just my $.02. Shooting it with film
if the end result will be digital and probably on a monitor (read low
resolution), is overkill and a lot of unnecessary work.

Sorry if this is off-topic.

I haven't done assignment photography in some time, but I have a job a
company wants me to bid on.  They are putting together a web-based catalog
and want all their products photographed (well over 100).  The products
range in size from cookie-size boxes to a large oven.  The job entails
shooting the products, digitizing and removing the backgrounds in Photoshop,
burning to a CD.

I have no idea where to begin to price a job like this. I plan to shoot 35mm
slides (with my OM4t, of course!).  I would appreciate any advice any pros
out there wish to share!!

Thanks - email me directly, if you wish!
