You should at least have charge the dubble...?
What I probably didn’t mention is it’s also good (if you want to do this) to build a relationship with a client you see yourself doing more work with, I would love to do heaps more work with Harley Davidson and love the brand so I’m happy to discount the price a little but for other jobs I’ve done I have charged much more 😁🙏
@@NorthBorders Sounds like a plan 👊👊
@@NorthBorders mate, you deserve way more $ for your work - don't under cut yourself! What is the ownership & usage rights of photos?
The pictures, your time, your gear, your experience and the finished results are worth more - BUT it all depends on the client. I'm sure you gauged the client and made an offer he couldn't refuse. Good job!
@@hiawrj for sure, but this client - how much do they sell their bikes for?
I asked a guy who was sitting in his McLaren if he wanted a free photoshoot of his car. He said yes and after the shoot, he liked the photos so much that he ended up paying full price for them. Moral of the story, be pleasant to work with, get it done fast, and most importantly overdeliver.
how much did you get?

I did a paid car shoot at the track at some point. They had a second car which i thought i would snap a few pics of as something extra.
Turns out it was not there second car... it was a random car lol
Anyway contacted the race team because i already made and edit the pictures and send them to the team. They loved them too and paid me fot it, later they used it for an article in a magazine :D First time my pictures got in a magazine.
This guy is the reason I started photography properly
Same lol been doing it since January
I attrst to that
once u get better and better, please dont charge money that high 😂
sameee dude
@Cherian Philip nice ive done that for 2 years straight. Finally bought my camera a few months back. But to he honest i went with the latest and greatest (fuji xt4) but i think i would be as satisfied with an xt1 of 2 lol it isnt about the camera. Just have fun and enjoy the proces of it🙏 more important than having the latest and greatest even if its really tempting to get an expensive camera. Save some money on trips or doing sick things to take photos😎🤘🏼
When a client gets a signature North Borders tram shot they better be expecting a heavy price
To true 😀
I love how Mike anticipates complaining and says shut the f up😂😂😂💯
Just real talk 😀
What’s the best camera that shoots 200 fps and 70mb raws? My budget is $4.50
mmm your eyes
The red 8k weapon from wish hits diff😤😤😤
Your mom
Yaw hahahaha lmao 🤣
deeznuts
When mike said $1600 my heart dropped this guy deserves more I think
That moment that I thought you were going say you undercharged. lol. That was great work man AND they get a video? Should have charged double.
Yo sick chase watches the aussie boys too loll
Just wanna share a success story - went to a new dessert restaurant that opened up near me, new location in the franchise. Offered the owner a free commercial video shoot, and he loved the final product so much he wants us to shoot his other locations, paid ofcourse. I literally went up and asked him, and it worked out!
Amazing bro! Keep up the good work 😁
Thanks. I am now going to steel your client that you so openly talked about in a public forum😂
@@SmokeNMirrorless Haha enjoy! No regrets, did it, got experience and had fun, learned a lot. Now I have a much better idea of what I like to shoot. Now "steal" my client that I can't work with because I have a full time job that I love 😉
Still getting videos on the side and much more in line with my passions 🙏
Price also covers the gear and the post process time as well. Most start out charging $0 and then when they build their name it becomes an income. You also got a job for a larger company who will gladly pay that much. Great video my man.
Nah, price only covers subjective value of the job. If your photos are shit people wont give a shit about your gear even if you shoot with an arri..
In the other hand, if you are so pro you can charge 20k shooting with an arri or with a a7III, value will be the same because your work will be gold for the client anyway.
and freakin‘ Adobe software xD
sister's dog's mom's best friend, ye that made a lot of sense
Am I crazy to think you under valued this shoot?... you should've charged more. lol good video
better to discount for a first-time customer though. i did the same with Visit Australia when I worked for them. Do the first project cheap or even on a contra basis and then if the client likes it they'll have the confidence in you to pay more for future projects
At 4:30 every scar’s fan recognized that
The vibe of this video is soo good!
This is the third time I am watching this❤️
One of the best videos I've seen in a long time! It was dope to see how you got the job, and how you delt with the client. Also, thanks for being open about how much you charged. Making money from photography videos are in my opinion the best vids on youtube and you have made some really good ones.
Keep on making amazing content mate! You're videos are so good and have inspired me to do photography, keep on doing what you're doing man!!
Preach mate! The biggest challenge is getting out there and shooting. As you grow your work will speak for itself, but you have to remember to adjust your prices accordingly. You'll never get anywhere charging $200 per night especially if the time it takes you is well above that price.
Quality content man!! The fact that you both teach editing, charging, managing, clients, location and roadmaps in one video os just awesome man. If if could mention one thing i would love to hear also is the amount of time you put in, how long did it take to plan, how many hours where you out that night etc.
Great video and that knowledge and experience of Melbourne is priceless. Being new to the city you have to learn everything about it which is really hard work. Great skills, photography and knowledge is what you are paying for, well done dude.
Great video. Love that you give details about the job/rates etc. Nobody else talks about these topics like it's some sort of taboo subject.
It's been 2 years since I became member of your channel and still feels the same enthusiasm and energy in you...even after lockdown...will keep supporting ❤❤
Im so happy i found this guy! been following for a while now! same with 7th.era and what i learned is.. you wont get nowhere just watching the videos.. actually listen to this guy and GO OUT!! my car shots are getting better every time i go out🖤‼️ great channel keep it up
The charging rate checks out if you consider: experience/ knowledge, gear, time shooting & editing and number of shots 📸
Ur one of the reasons why i fell in love w photography. I just ordered my first camera :)
This is 100% the way to go. Even tho I'm just starting and trying to focus more on Architecture photography (because I studied architecture), I've always loved and rode bikes. That allows me to have a lot of friends who do as well. I shot a bunch of them, and without even looking for it I just got approached for the first time to do my first paid motorcycle shoot.
7:35 jesus christ that photo is insane.
Loving the videos man! Binge watching your videos to help improve my photography and weather photos.
Quality explanation. Appreciate the insight into your work 👌🏻 hard to find anyone talking about their income/costs they charge as a photographer.
Love your content bro. Class stuff. This video alone teaches so much and definitely backs up why you charged what you did.
Great job with this shoot my friend. You really are a master with photographing motor vehicles. Really enjoyed your video.
you are completely right about charging the right price, the photos are sick and you ARE an awesome photographer, there's no reason to charge less for such good work!
Sony E mount
Love your content mate! Thanks for inspiring me to pick up my camera and just shoot everything and anything.
Love your work man since I was furloughed I have been hooked on your vids and getting into photography and saving up for my first Sony !! Incredible shots my friend !! Peace from London 🇬🇧
Not only the shots are awesome, but knowing most of those locations makes me cry. Miss Melbourne soooo much!
One word: inspiration!
Thank you for this Mike!
I love these breakdown videos bro keep it up.
I really like your videos and the style of your photos. Also always with good explanation, I get a lot of inspiration from you. Awesome!
keep it up and keep surprising us with the great videos and photo.
Greetings from the Netherlands
Love ya work bro, good stuff.
awesome run through of behind the scenes of your shoot. power to you mate, keep killin it! You shoot bangers ... G O L D!!
NB & 7th era you guys are something 🔥 the way you Teach and Entertain in each videos is 💥😌 .
Thanks Mate
Thanks bro. Been looking for this video for months
This must be on of your most crisp shoots yet, all those photo's were straight up bangers!
I really appreciate telling us the price of the shoot. Not many photographers are willing to be that transparent
Love the energy man. You are doing great! Love from the Netherlands🙏🏽 good price good photo’s
Really enjoying the POV clips 👌🏿
I was just remembering of the videos of January (good times...), so nice to watch a video now. :)
So today I had my first Freelance Client, just a quick 1 hour portrait session and I made $80, I charged $60 and he tipped me $20, so If I could do it, you could too! I am super excited for more clients it was awesome working with them in what I love doing!
This is actually so nice! Thanks for all the advice and tips!
Love your work ... Love your rant on prices... (I have a Kawi shoot this weekend...)
Pretty cool video. Very informative. Great shots as usual
Mate solid effort! I dont know why it took so long to discover your channel but love it nonetheless. Inspiration brother 📸📸👌🏻✌🏻
I love these type of shoots. I've started using your multiple shot techniques, sometimes with flash. It works great, thanks. From Victoria, but the one up in Canada.
Ive been waiting so long for this video!! wishes from germany
Hey champion.. like watching your vids.. I am new to photography. I never thought about walking around the streets taking random photos so been starting to do a bit of that around my town..
Im getting some ideas for my channel. I have 2002 Honda vtr so this will help tremendously. I just finished watching all of your car photography vids again. Getting my WRX has made me want to do more (also going to be on my channel). Keep up the good work. The boys appreciate it 👍
I own the Livewire and it’s a blast to ride around 😁👍🏽 great photos!
Will you be posting the 16:9 edit in your stories? Such sick shots!!✨🔥
Yess should be up now!
THOSE SHOTS ARE SO FIRE!!!!... as always great video
Some of your best photos in my opinion! Absolutely killed it!
You make it look easy man. Epic shots
Great results 😍. Oh, and it looked FAST on that take off 🤙🏼
Love this man!
I’ve been wondering how to get the best night shots because I want to shoot my bike. Thanks for the awesome tips 💪🏼🙌🏼
Another f$%&k good video ! Always learning with you guys ! Keep on 🤟🏻
I like that stuff you create! 👍
I love your message at the end.
I like how much you charged, it means you respect your work and time (equipment etc. costs...), and if client gonna respect it, he gonna payyyyyyyy.
now i miss these video 🥰 keen to see more of these 🤟🤟📸
Cracking video Mike 💥💥💥
Your shots are Dope!
I forgot to mention all the time spend in post! Great Job! Cheers from Portugal!
sick shots man!
amazing pictures man congrats !!!
Randomly stumbled on to this vid. I agree, I got my start shooting motorcycles for fun and then it opened up for me shooting for some major motorcycle brands. Although COVID lock downs this year substantially made things really hard to get jobs so been shooting local riders mainly for fun again till these crazy times pass.
you value your worth. respect
Top content Mike! Cheers from Estonia (yeah, where is it... I know :)
Love the photos man
That bike is siiiiick!!! Great video even with the 80's cheesy remix of an EDM type song
Your my inspiration! Love your videos! Your the reason why im starting to make money with my favourite passion!
The shoot was awesome.
YOUR CHARGE WAS RIGHT BECAUSE A PHOTOGRAPHER PUTS ALOT OF EFFORT AND TIME TO CREATE A SUCCESSFUL SHOOT. THE TIME CHARGE, THE GEAR CHARGE, THE TRANSPORT CHARGE AND MANY OTHER.
THE PHOTOS YOU CLICKED WERE MIND-BLOWING. I LOVE THEM.
Great point mate. I think the price was reasonable. If you know what you’re doing and what it will take to execute it that’s what will sell!
You are literally a god for me dude !
Saludos desde Argentina
I will be waiting for your next video
You charged correctly. People will pay for the quality of what you do. If you want to make a living you have to charge for your craft. Fare price for good work. Well done.
super awesome work 👏
Let's make something crystal clear. You didn't HAVE to share information about your charges. You CHOSE to. That is you giving people a window into a potential future business, when you didn't really have to. That spirit of sharing is incredible. More power to you Mike!
Nice one ! Such great advice!
Honestly I got my first paid gig cause of this boy :)
Legend. More videos like this man
😍😍😍 i love this video 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Thnx men 👌🙏
LOVE THE VIDEO! U DESERVE 1MIL
Bro, love your Content man. Your fkn awesome!
I luv his sense of humour
These videos are fire
Amazing thanks so much for this video
I had my first wedding a few days ago and leading up to that I’ve been talking more about photography and posting more - just booked 4 shoots. Just keep shooting
so sick, well done on the Harley collab! :)
Not gonna lie I was expecting you to say even more money. Night time car/bike stuff is your specialty man and you’re great at it. Definitely an inspiration
9:03 there‘s a green reflection in the bike on the right side from the tram but not on the left side...still a cool photo though :)
Love this vid. Taking pics of my own and my buddies bikes. What first Prime lens should I buy? I'm shooting on a nikon now but going to buy a sony a6400
Very very good video mate, keep doing you
