I don't think the guys at the high end are starving. They've usually got
more work than they can handle.

John's numbers would have been accurate at one time, but digital has
changed that. It's easy to find a good photographer her who will
shoot a wedding, ceremony and reception, for $500 now. That's a no
prints, turn over the files rate. Videographers are widely available
for $300. Yes, some still bill at higher rates, but they're
starving.

A friend asked me to photograph his daughter's bat mitzvah this weekend.
He'd like to have video of the ceremony, put a camera on a tripod and
let it go. I've got a 15 year old JVC, also a K-3 and a K-3 II. I
know that the early pentax SLRs would only video for a few minutes
before having to stop and restart.
By the way, I'm willing to do this as a favor for a friend, he's willing
to pay me. Neither of us have any idea what professionals charge. It'll
be about 6hours with ceremony, dinner and party. Anybody have a rough
idea what it would cost him to hire someone that does this for a living?
Day rate $1200.00 - $1500.00 for a full day; $150.00 - $200.00/Hour for
a partial day; time & a half of the hourly rate if it goes over 8 hours.
Additional flat fee for editing and/or standard post-processing.
Plus travel expenses if they have to come from out of town & stay overnight.
