* Who and what is this guide for? * Accessibility

These are some things to remember when negotiating rates for corporate photography. And please send us your accounts of successful negotiations.

  • The rates suggested for copyright work are for limited licences: each extra use licensed attracts an extra fee;
  • The suggested rates are minima from which freelances negotiate upward according to the value of the work; and
  • Freelances who are registered for VAT will add it to every invoice.

This section will be expanded to give more advice soon - suggestions are welcome.
