A small health magazine called me about doing a shoot for a cover. It is just of a hamburger to illustrate the dangers of colesterol.

How much to charge? I figured materials and $?/hour? Am I on the right track?

Most magazines have rate sheets that say how much they pay for a cover, a full page inside, quarter-page, etc. Ask them for theirs.

Well I think that you are on the wrong track to be thinking "just a hamburger"... Charge as much as you think your time and expertise is worth to you.

I will ask them that.

I figured I would get some really juicy tasty food. Problem is that I will be hungry after doing that and I am trying to convey that it is bad for you...lol
