Hi all

I took some photos of people kiteboarding the other day and some people are keen on buying some 14x11s

I've never sold pictures like this before so I'm at a loss on how much to charge, etc

Here are some of the shots:

Any help would be apprecited

Thanks

Javier

Fixed the links :
Pic 1
Pic 2

Now tell us what they want to do with the photos. Do they want to buy prints, or the actual photo, as in buying the rights to the photos? Will they be using them commercially or for personal purposes?

If they want prints (framed or otherwise) just calculate the cost and make a good profit on it ;-)

If they want rights to the photos, you can charge a lot more depending on what they intend to do, and what kind of rights you want to give them. Search the forums for more on this. It has been discussed a lot.

Hi

Sorry, I should have explains

One person (the one in the photo) I believe he just wants prints (14x11) for himself

There were other people interested on other shots for things like "tips and tricks" and tutorials and I believe (I would have to confirm) that it would be for the web (maybe print?)

So I guess I would like to have a bit of a wide spectrum to know what to expect on the different situations

Thanks

Javier

PS: How can I do a proper link.. I tried text thing but it didn't work

When you're posting a reply, you see 5 tiny boxes. Bold, Italic, image, hyperlink, and thumbnail. Thumbnail only works if you have a portfolio here. See this for more detail

Prints you can just sell easily by finding out the cost of printing/shipping etc if you have to send them somewhere. Don't give him any files, have them printed and just give him the prints.

Will they be using it on the web on a paid site from which they make a profit, or a normal site which can be accessed by anyone? Confirm that.
