The numbers behind a sustainable studio
The most common pricing mistake is charging only for the obvious costs of a shoot and forgetting the overheads that run all month. Cost-plus pricing fixes that by spreading your fixed costs and income across your realistic volume.
For wedding-specific benchmarks and package ideas, see our guide to wedding photography pricing in India. Then track what you actually earn with FotoFlow's reports.
A sound approach is cost-plus: add up your monthly fixed costs and the income you want, divide across the shoots you realistically do, add the variable cost of each job, then apply a margin. This calculator does that maths for you.
