She should've mentioned that instead of just listing a single piece of equipment
It’s probably fake. Don’t take image macros/memes too seriously ;)
Its easy to say something like "my camera for this shoot costs $5k, you could rent it for $300 a day and do it yourself" but people dont really care about art or skill. If youre shooting a wedding, for example, there are hundreds of little candid moments that your friend John the Designated Driver wouldn't catch that Natalie GirlWhoDoesThisForALiving would.
Not to mention there aren't enough weddings a day to sustain someone for $300 per, and youre competing with others, and blah blah blah.
I tend to follow my instinct of "your art is worth whatever you say it is". If i like your art and i like your price, ill pay it, no haggling. If i dont like one or either, i apologize for wasting your time.
In my experience, items are only worth what someone is actually willing to pay. Because if it is priced so high that no one in your target demographic is actually willing to pay that much, it is just unrealized gains. And for most people, an unrealized gain is equivalent to 0.
I see this a lot in the MTG community. People will say a card is worth $200 because that is what they list for on eBay. I ask if they've ever had an offer for that much - and the answer is almost exclusively no. I tell them that the ones listed on eBay are the ones that aren't selling. The real value is less because no one actually buying them for $200, that is the cutoff where people stopped buying the card and so the listings stay up.
I remember eBay used to let you view items that have actually sold that way you could see the actual price an item moves at. Haven't used it in a while but if that's still there I would show them what price the card has sold for in the recent past
