Since we have artists and photographers among our group, I'm going to ask for some help.
I have a neighbor that takes fabulous photographs and would like to sell some of his better work. He is having real difficulty with pricing and I have no clue on how to advise him as he gets started. They will be shown in random town art/craft shows for right now.
His first photo is 8x12 in size, matt finish (my decision....oooph).
Questions:
1) How does one go about pricing fine photography?
2) Is gloss or matt finish best?
3) Is a single mat or multiple mats best for sales presentation?
Please add anything else that would be beneficial for him. Also, any interesting reading material that I could send his way?
Thank you much for this! I enjoy helping people get started on things they are interested in, but ony if I can give them what I think is good advice....which I lack in this instance!
