Okay, let’s tackle this. So Brian Byrne has a range of photography skills, but his experience and expertise seem more on the lower end. He’s in Petaluma, CA, which isn’t a major hub for photography services. According to national averages, photographers with similar skills can charge $100-$250 per hour. However, considering the local market and his skillset, I’m estimating a lower rate of $75 per hour. This is also in line with what you’d expect for a freelancer or those just starting out in the field.
