I charge $150/hr for a basic shoot. Weddings…much more as there is more involvement, more people, more photos and editing. When “professionals” start lowering their prices….professionals suffer and customers end up with shitty photos, and so they should. The old addage “you get what you pay for” is truth in advertising. I dont believe cell phones will ever truly replace professional cameras…they can’t zoom, bokeh or do most of what a professional camera can do.
With that said, check out this guys “professional” photography. LOL I go to his site just for a laugh sometimes, but I’ve seen him also on the edge of getting arrested because he posted some pretty revealing photos of a girl in high school…UNDERAGE! If you look closely at his “work” (very very loose term here!), you will see how he tries to shoot up womens dresses and get them as naked as possible for his own gratification. How do I know this? I’ve seen him shoot and warned some of the girls of what he was doing.
