Canon Digital Pocket Cameras

High end photography on a budget.

How much should I charge to photograph a high school reunion?

My brother in law invited my husband and I to his class reunion as guests. After the invitation, he asked me if I would photograph the event for the reunion committee, knowing that I take good photos. They will hire me and pay me for memory cards or any other supplies I need. They asked me to make up an invoice. What should I charge per hour to do this job? I have a Canon digital camera with 8 megapixels, probably considered a pocket camera.

If you have a "pocket camera" aka a point and shoot then you really shouldn’t be charging anything to shoot the event. You’ll pretty much get the same results as someone else using the same kind of camera.

If you don’t have a DSLR or access to one then pass on this, please.

    I must agree with K2’s answer if this is family I would not charge a fee other than maybe your expenses( memory cards & batteries) Do a good job and use the images as your future portfolio.
