How much to charge for picture with Santa?

I am doing a fundraiser for a group that I am involved with.

What is the going rate for pictures with Santa (ie at the mall, etc.)?

It's been a long time since I have done this with my own little ones.

Thanks in advance!

I have no clue, we always do our own pictures with Santa......but we are looking at doing something similar with our FRG.
Are the supplies for the pictures being donated, or are you going to have to cover the cost of them? If you are supplying the items to be used, you need to make sure you charge enough to cover the cost, plus a little so the fundraiser if profitable.....sorry, wasn't really any help, was I?

I think they are up to like $8 or $10 at the mall.

If I were doing a fund raiser, I would think $5 for a picture. Are you doing the instant pictures??? Or digitals??? You can take the digitals to CVS or Rite Aid or something like that and get them printed up for 29 cents or so.

Not really sure how much you should charge as we have not paid for Santa Pictures in 5 years ( We go to a Party where they take pictures for free ) However, Can tell you what the School sent home yesterday in wanting to take Pictures with Santa,

15.00 For 1 5X7 4 Wallets
25.00 for 1 8X10,2 5X7 And 4 wallets

Good Grief, Noway would I pay this for 4 kids thats 100.00 !! Bad thing, Spring Pictures you can do a group picture with all children in the family, I called and they said No to the Santa pictures One only per picture

We have a man who will *be* Santa who has a Kodak Easyshare digital camera and printer that is small and portable (he can bring it on site... prints 4x6 prints).

I was thinking $5 for a 4x6. I'm also thinking that we can get email addresses for sending them a digital file as an option if they want to buy a larger print elsewhere on their own.
