Hey sleeper, my local Lotus distributor had the exact Evora you had down there. I got some pics too.
Oh yeah, I got to drive it too

So, I got a call from some random person tonight saying she was referred to me by a friend who said I am a good photographer and wants me to do a party. 11pm-3am (4 hours) not sure where, but it would just be a candids type deal. Then she asked about pricing and I froze. I have never been hired to do events like this. I shoot for fun. As soon as I told her that I felt like I shot myself in the foot.
Anyways, She asked for so of my work and I am going to put together a few pictures to email her.
What I need help with is coming up with a price. I obviously have never done an event like this before. I have gotten paid hourly, but that was with the university doing intramural sports. Techniquely that is professional work, just not quite the same situation because I was the only one that was willing to do it.
So what would a fair price be for the event based on my skill level (of which most in here have a good idea)??

Yeah I heard that as well. I just wish they still played their old style of music. The 2 most recent albums haven't done it for me. Absolution and Origin of Symmetry were awesome.
That Evora is sick. How was the drive, Flyin?

I wrote up a full review here: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?p=5128835#post5128835
It was a very cool car, but had some nagging issues that would make it difficult to live with every day. Beautiful to look at, though...

What kind of event? If it's just a party, do it for like 50/hour. That's fair. And work in some free drinks and some food if they're serving any. I did club photos for about 50-60 /hour. It's a good way to make 150-200 a night. Maybe a bit more. Sometimes..I'll ask for 50/hour and have the organizers cover my bar tab.

$20 for CD set including all raw images taken at event.
$5 per extra CD with select Images
$15 per extra CD set with all event images
Extra Service:

$25 fee for limited post processing desired (cropping, boarders, quality adjustments and other light duty adjustments)

A little overexposed for my taste. You lose the side of her face in the background. On the other hand, I like how you desaturated it a little (or seemed to)
