DRP Music and Band Pricing
Services and Pricing
Unsigned / Unsponsored Local Bands
These services are aimed at bands who are going at it on their own. Most musicians don't have
a whole ton of cash laying around waiting to be spent, and many times can't afford the services of a professional
photographer - and yet need that level of skill and service to step up to the next level. I offer this pricing in
the spirit of supporting the local music community and in the hopes that it might help someone else get ahead in the
turbulent entertainment industry.
It is understood that if, in the future, your band gets "signed" to any form of contract
that involves financial compensation - including things like the Jägermeister program - continued use of the photos
generated under this pricing agreement will result in further licensing fees, as descibed below in the commercial
licensing section.
Promo package: $150
Includes a 1 hour session and 25 8x10 promo shots, integrated with your logo and
contact information.
Live package: $125 + cover
I will attend one of your live shows and shoot a number of shots. You will receive one
digital file per member of your group, suitable for publishing on your website, or for use in CD artwork.

8hr block (day rate) $300
Album art hourly rates do not include expenses for locations further than 50 miles from Austin, TX, to include
but not limited to mileage (at $.40/mile), airfare, lodging, meals, tolls, etc. Will result in your choice of images from the shoot,
for use in album artwork, etc. I can provide them to you or directly to the graphic artist doing the artwork.
Proof images for all services will be made available online or on CD.
