OK, Pricing. I'm not going to lay out my whole schedule here, but I will say that for RE work I have set levels, or packages, that I fit shoots into.
Basic: they get up to 15 images (no more!)
Mid: 22 images
Estate: 30 images.

The prices go according to the levels, and I have guidelines as to square footage to help agents figure out what they should do.
I figure I will travel 30 minutes or more round-trip to do the shoot, spend an hour to an hour and a half on location, and then put in an hour of post. So I calculate what I want to earn in an 8-hour day, divide by 3 hours, and that's my rate for a basic shoot.
