How To Make Money Photographing

How do I know how much I should charge for my photographs?
I am in contact with a gallery who might be interested in showing my work on consignment.
However, they want me to submit photos with prices and I have no idea how to charge or what to charge? I dont want it to be too cheap or I wont make money, but if it is too expensive no one will be interested. HELP!! How do I decide what the right price is?
Some of you have asked to see the photos. I dont have them posted anywhere on the internet. If you’d like, I can email you some to see. I dont have any other way of showing you.
i would be honest with the gallery and tell them that you haven’t really sold any before and you aren’t sure what to charge.
they should have someone there who can appraise your work and help you decide on prices.
be sure to take into account in the fee:
-cost of your time to take photo
-any modeling costs
-any developing costs
-any paper costs
-any framing costs
so, take these things into consideration and that should give you a starting point.
take care and congrats!
