No offense, but pay damn low. I pay my second shooters 15 times more. That kind of pay is for assistants with no experience. Assistants with experience commands $15 per hour to even $50 per hour for professionl studio/production grip guys.

If you pay this low can, but shouldn't require people to have full frame cameras, so that people with budget can take up the job. Coz you are on budget yourself.

Thanks for all who responded to my request !! You guys have amazing Nikon gears but the reason i need to find Canon is to facilitate my editing process to be easier due to the color tone. Really appreciate your time to send me your portfolio

haha.. i agree too. but this is clubsnap. loads of people ard there are like that... and many jokers take up the job for "
experience" (that is one day going to kill them when even cheaper people appear. sad development to the commercial scene.

Don't get me wrong, most photographers will still able to make some money, but only a few are making real profits.

ten bucks per hour. unless shooting a Rebel series , that's few hundred hours to recoup lenses and body

This graph deserves a thread on its own in the photo biz section.

$90 for a full days of work , are you kidding me.. minus off transport and meal.. he /she eating grass is it...

Well if TS is running a biz he/she is off to a running start pay low, charge high(er) profit you should make except if the cost of post processing is over looked than it would be come do for (nearly) free. But shooting ability wise he/she is not too shabby has a sense of style (although I see a lot of influences but hey who can really claim to be original now ?)
Can not really slam him/her for prices offered if it was really too low no one who take it up; but it does not mean that these prices are for all. If you feel you are at a stage that you can do better some where else go find jobs there, if you think CS is a great place to find jobs well suck it up this seems to be the new reality here and in other places. Imagine be asked to shoot ad copy work for 9 beauty saloons (in different locations) of different layout and focused on different treatments , job owner thinks you only need 1+ hours to do all and a couple (number undefinable) shots in each and thinks/feels that $390 is too much for doing 1 location only as part of a deal where its nine job in a package (wah got no discount ha I got nine jobs for you hhor) It seems job owner wanted only to pay below $120 for all nine after 30 days credit. I translated that to mean not pay until he song and get you to do as much touchup work he wants then you wait till he shiok. Good luck to him, shot these know the amount of work required so at that point you need some one with a point and shoot and just literal you point he shot.

Hmm in light of the prices involved I feel your black "progression" line may be off it should be flat line or negative gradient.

FYI, skill on photoshop is also consider photography skill today.
