Hi Ana,
Do you think it is a good idea to put together a few product packages in additional to the à la carte products? Here is what I was thinking:
Collection 1:
12×12 parent album, 2 grandparent albums, 24×36 or 30×40 canvas (I’m not sure which one to use), all digitals from session, facebook timeline (should this be in a package or just be given for free?)
Collection 2:
10×10 album, 25 digitals, 20 x 24 canvas, 1 – 16×20 portrait, 2 – 11×14 portraits, facebook timeline?
Collection 3:
Birth announcements, 2 – 11×14 portraits, 4 – 8×10 portraits, 6 – 5×7 portraits, the matching digitals
How much should these collections cost? I know this will vary depending on my area but I just would like a general idea to know if I am under charging or over charging for these collections.
Thank you,
Karen

Yes – packages are always great – people love bundles. You should always have ala carte too in case they don’t want a budle.
The album – how many images are in the album – that depends on cost – where are you printing the album? What is the wholesale cost of the album and how much time will it take?
I can’t give you package pricing without knowing what you are pricing your individual products.

For albums it is ideal to double or even triple.
For canvases each area has their market rate for canvases- you should check with the local area photographers and what they are charging. Usually, you want to mark up at least 3x from the wholesae price.
