I think she's worth it. Think about the facebook option.
Try to sell bigger photos, as these make a bigger impact for future clients.


What Facebook option?

you must remember that will need to include the time/cost (although its short) to process/edit the photos


I honestly don't see how it could take too much time. Almost every situation can have an action in Photoshop created for it. Things might need tweaked but it shouldn't take more then 5 minutes for each photo. Also, unless she is stupid, she is making around $45 for each 8x10 sheet and around $24.91 for each 4x6.

Oh. I need to get a model release form as well along with an agreement not to reuse photos or whatever you wanna call it.

720px width I think. Plus a lower ppi for web optimization.

Dave is really good. Michelle's photography bores me, plus the 'over the rainbow' song she has on her site is cheesy and over-used. Both their post-processing is relatively simple to immitate.

Zac Lehr isn't even really a senior photographer.

If Michelle charges $200/hr (although I see $150 only in her site), I'd say you charge $100-150. Include something that she doesn't, like DVD with 72 ppi, long edge 720 pixels for facebook. She includes a proofbook.

Also, whether you belive or not, Philly is your competition :\

Wouldn't you only want 720 width though? If you had 720 on the height it could be way to small width wise.

long edge, regardless of which one it is. Facebook will compress it to this less effectively than you can.
