I’ve started doing photography on the side and have landed some covers with celebrities/artists. One of the recent well known artists I shot for a cover has asked me if they could license my photos for their headshots and marketing.

How would I approach getting to an appropriate licensing fee?

I’m inexperienced in this and don’t want to shortchange myself. Any help from fellow creatives/folks that are familiar w usage would be appreciated!

Good luck!

Have asked them how long they intend to use the photos for, what constitutes “marketing”, and how many photos they’re looking to license. But once they get back to me with those answers, I’m not sure how the different variables would influence what I would charge

How did you go about learning the skillset? On your own? Classes? Workshops?

Congratulations by the way that’s awesome

Thank you! I bought my first “real” camera when I was a teenager and just kind of self taught myself over the years. Did test shoots with friends growing up and then once I got in my 20s started taking it more seriously. But no formal training, really. All watching videos in my childhood bedroom and playing around

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.
