->> Hi all ... I've been contacted by a regional publication associated with a national charitable organization about using one of my photos for a story they are working on ... they have offered to pay for the photo's use, but I'm curious on what I should ask.

Suggestions on what I should ask (or start off the negotiations at)? |

If you go to my website, www.wallynell.com, I use Fotoquote and it should also be able to give you some idea of how to charge.
Good luck, ... and don't undercharge... |
