Frequently Asked Questions
Consider your experience, local market rates, and the value you deliver. Research what other photographers in your niche and region charge. A common starting point is to calculate your annual income goal, divide by billable hours, then add a buffer for non-billable time.
Include travel (fuel, flights, parking), software subscriptions (Lightroom, Capture One), gear depreciation or rental fees, second shooter or assistant costs, insurance, and any miscellaneous expenses like props or venue access fees.
The generated PDF is an estimate, not a contract or invoice. It helps you communicate pricing professionally. For legally binding agreements, consult a legal professional and use a proper contract alongside the estimate.
No. All calculations and PDF generation happen entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded — your rates, client info, and business details stay completely private on your device.
Most freelance photographers aim for 15-30% profit margin on top of costs. This covers business growth, equipment upgrades, slow seasons, and savings. Adjust based on your market position and demand.
