Editorial:

Photographs captured for editorial purposes are design to illustrate and accompany stories published in newspaper, magazine and blog articles. They are not designed to advertise any specific product or service. Fees are generally based on the size of the image and the press run of the article. Images used on the cover of the magazines do have advertising implications and incur greater fees. Editorial rates are generally lower than advertising rates so an accompanying adjacent photo credit is mandatory.

The following is a starting point for local editorial rates:

$1,500.00 one full day (8 hours) on location or in studio, including digital capture and color management, basic post-production including file preparation and delivery via DVD or internet download, and up to 5 images up to full page size for print and web versions. $250.00 per additional image selected or created within the 8 hour day.
