Celeb photo advice/question....
Jack McCoy, Photographer
Baldwin | NY | USA | Posted: 9:20 PM on 08.09.09
->> Any advice/suggestions on how to approach a celeb publication in regard to shots of a popular celebrity, and pitching the shots and asking price? This is not my niche whatsoever, but after shooting the celeb i thought it might be of interest to certain celeb publications/news agencies. Not really asking who to call, I know the publications to contact (unless there are specific photo editors anyone would suggest), but more specifically, I am curious if there is a price range I should be keeping in mind, as well as if certain pubs might compensate better than others (not to sound materialistic).

Thanks in advance---

Jack

->> Jack is this celeb giving you the OK to license that image to other outlets?
Price range? All depends the size, how great is the photo, pub circulation, how important at the moment is this celeb and how intimate is the shoot. A home set up or location will bring you more than a photo taken by 100 paparazzi outside a club unless the actor is the "star of the moment" and is caught naked in the back of the club with another woman/man besides his wife or girlfriend. That case it wouldnt matter if the photo is even sharp.

Your last question is a yes. Why would your local Sunflower of the South Magazine pays you the same top $$$ as GQ or People Mag??
