So I met the owner of this car...
Porsche 356 Cabriolet by FLWill, on Flickr
...over the weekend. He's a realy nice guy and seemed to really enjoy this shot. So much so that he wants a print for his home. He was also hinting at a possible shoot in the near future to cover the interior, engine, and the rest of the car. Therein lies the problem. I've never done a car shoot for profit before and I have no idea what to charge. This is also for personal usage (not a magazine) so that adds another aspect to the equation.
Anyone care to share their thoughts on this proposition? I'm certain I can handle the actual shoot, but what do I charge? Do I charge for my time and just provide a CD (I know, I know)? Do I do the shoot and just charge for prints? I'm completely lost in this area...
