|---|---|---|
| Freelancer / marketplace photographer | $50 – $500 per SKU | Price and turnaround vary widely; revisions are usually billed separately |
| Studio / photography agency | $500 – $3,000+ per SKU | Full gallery set with retouching; 2-3 week typical turnaround |

Where the Cost Actually Goes
It’s rarely the shoot - it’s the revisions
A studio quote covers the shoot day. It rarely covers what happens after the first draft - a background change, a new packaging design, a size chart for a variant that launched later. Each of those is usually a new invoice. A subscription model means a revision is a re-generation, not a re-shoot.
