Dentis 4.5.full.rar

I have a potential wedding to shoot in the fall. I met the bride (Jane) because she is a dental hygienist that works at my dentist's office. The dentist wants me to take a group photo of his staff, which is about 6 people. I might also have to take an individual picture of each staff member.
Normally, I would just turn down the job of taking pictures for a small business/corporation because my specialty is in weddings and portraits, not corporate photography. However, I know that they want me to take the dentist's office pictures as a TEST TO SEE IF I AM CAPABLE OF SHOOTING JANE'S WEDDING. Because my business is new, they don't know if I am capable of photographing a wedding. It's not a fair test because I don't do corporate photography.
I know that I am capable of shooting a wedding, and I am confident in my skills. My family has owned a photo lab & portrait studio my entire life where I worked as the manager. I have shot weddings for another wedding photographer and for my own company. I just separated from my family business, and started my own wedding photography & portrait business in November. But if it makes them feel better, I will shoot their dentist's office pictures.
Because I have only shot weddings and portraits, I have no idea how pricing for corporate photography works. They want to put the picture on their dental office website. I will drive to the dental office which is 13 miles away and take the pictures. I will burn a CD & mail it to them.
How much should I charge for 1 group photo of the staff(6 people)?
They might ask me for individual pictures of each staff member as well. How much should I charge if I have to take an individual picture of each staff member (total of 6 individual pics)?
I just shot my dentist and his staff for their new web site. I did it as barter for services. My specialty is guitar porn but the DDS and I both knew I could do a competent job on a group shot and five individual head shots.
UPDATE: I am in Philadelphia. I just talked to the dentist, and found out that he wants to put the pictures up on his website & in Philadelphia Magazine. Philadelphia Magazine is a well known publication in Philly. Should the contract say that he has to give me photo credit if the photo will be used in the magazine? Or is that inappropriate? I don't really know what the norm is for corporate photography.
I do have insurance, but none of the dentists participate, so I get don't get the reduced pricing. I get a benefit based on the reduced pricing however, so their claim to pay 50% works out to about 25%. I'd rather have a good dentist who doesn't participate than the one I had for years, who did participate, and who is a major reason for the constant problems.
That's a little different. Are they going into the magazine for display advertising? In that case, you should get more than a day rate. If they are just going in for one of those "showcase" pages, it's less. Credit in magazines depends on usage. If it's editorial, you should definitely get credit, e.g., if they are doing a story about the dentist's practice. If it's advertising, I would look for more money and not a credit line. You can ask, but it isn't that common.
"...my entire life where I worked as the manager." You should have a sample wedding album to show your best work in -- my guess here. Shooting a dentist and his staff is not really a prime example of how a wedding goes.
Abstract:A modifier consisting of the mixture of cyclotriphosphazenes containing 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenoxy and β-carboxyethenylphenoxy moieties was developed for administration with acrylate dental restorative compositions. The synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The optimal conditions to combine the modifier with the starting dental mixture consisting of bis-GMA and TGM-3 were revealed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. Properties of the cured modified compositions were evaluated for the compliance with requirements of ISO 4049:2019. It was found that these compositions possess the increased adhesion to dental tissues and cure depth and the decreased water sorption and water solubility. The values of elastic modules, destructive compressive stress and microhardness were also increasing along with the increased content of the modifier in the composition.Keywords: phosphazene; restorative dentistry; adhesion; composite material; modification
