Career Advice

Setting Your Modeling Rates

Setting Your Modeling Rates

Pricing yourself correctly is crucial. Too low and you're undervalued; too high and you miss opportunities.

Pricing strategy

Factors to Consider

  • Your experience level
  • Local market rates
  • Type of work (commercial vs editorial)
  • Usage rights requested
  • Shoot duration and requirements

Rate Guidelines

Research what models with similar experience charge in your area. Start slightly lower to build your book, then increase as you gain experience and demand.
