| I have a meeting with the tourism board this week as they would like to purchase the rights to a couple of my photographs, the problem is, I have no idea what to charge them. Can anyone give me an idea what the going rate for exclusive rights are?? |

I think a lot of it will depend on where you live, for instance, in NYC the price would be much higher than it would be in Billings, Montana. I would check with some other local photographers and find out if they sell exclusive rights to any of their shots and for how much.

| OR...would it be better to sell one time use and retain the rights? If so, what would I charge for that?? |

Hey Dave
I always find lots of good information at the NPPA website (National Press Photographers Assoc). Here is a direct link to a reference in their Business Practices Guide pricing page
Hope thats somewhat helpfull... and good job with the sale! |

Dave,
There are soooo may variables to consider. Pricing can vary from "almost nothing" to hunders of dollars for a single image. I have used a computer program in the past which does a great job of establishing prices, but found that there was still a lot of wriggle room. I am not associated with them in any way, but do think it was an excellent (but not inexpensive - over $100) program. See www.fotoquote.com.
Another approach is to "pretend" like you were a buyer and see what various stock agencies charge for similar images.
Goo luck.
