Photography has been a hobby of mine since high school (so, 14 years now). I started assisting with weddings and just get paid by the main photographer a few years ago. I've taken every opportunity to shoot family and friends in their big events and now a family friend has asked me to do family portraits.

I want to be fair to them and me.

What should I charge for the sitting? What should I charge for the photos?

Lots of issues with this question. It is not considered constructive here, doesn't fit the Q&A format, could fill a book, depends on location, etc etc. please see the FAQ that you can access from the top of every page. – dpollitt Jan 23 '12 at 2:40

Note that despite the note below which sums up the majority vote with my name included, I didn't call this "not constructive". I did vote it as a duplicate of the other one, which it substantially resembles. – mattdm Jan 23 '12 at 3:15
