Okay, let’s tackle this. So Jacques has 18 years of experience as Director of Photography, which is a significant amount of time. He has skills like photography, post-production, illustration, and film production, which are in demand. However, his role is more on the business side, being the owner of the unit. Location is Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, South Africa, which might not be a major hub for high-paying jobs. Considering his experience and skills, I would estimate his hourly rate to be around $125, which is slightly below average for a photographer with his experience in a non-major hub location.
