Yes indeed! I've actually turned this fact into a niche market.
I charge an hourly fee w/ a 2 hour absolute minimum, plus my regular print fee by paper size. The more chattier and more interested they are, the more money I make and the more real & perceived value they receive.
I charge the same whether they supply the paper, or I do.

I have also considered this, as it
could turn into a pretty lucrative adventure.
My main worry is, she's not a photographer but an artist, these prints are for an upcoming show , and she is already asking about "quantity discounts
(I have expressed to her that my pricing reflects very fair and competitive rates!).
I will be printing some of
her existing artwork files, (and possibly shooting and printing more of her art myself). I
might also be framing some of her art which is my primary business. Would be a very nice package deal, IF I get the job!
PS: I've been in business for over 40 years, I know how to deal with her, but was mostly unsure about the pricing using her paper. I think I now know how to proceed thanks to the replies here. I will have to play it by ear and see ...
Thanks, Good to hear from you Rand...
