How much to charge for a pamper party shower?

For a "pamper party" I'd quote a price just high enough to make them go away! I don't want to shoot anything like that...

I no longer subscribe to the "do it cheap for experience" method. I've done it and it was darn near a waste of my time. Now I'm a proponent of the "act professional and people will be happy to pay you" philosophy.

I don't think any pros here will do cheap for experience in a pamper party.. Ferlon is obviously a newbi and he needs to do cheap for experience, even in a pamper party.

Thanks a lot again guys I really appreciate all these comments! As I read them I am finding out more and more about how to advertise and carry myself on the business side of video! By the way I don't know if I mentioned it but my first main camera wedding shoot went very well and I thank the Lord for it all, He truly did help me! Thanks again for all your help guys!
