Prices & Fees

Price List / Fees
 
This list is subject to change without notice. My fees are highly subjective also, depending on the situation, and can fluctuate wildly depending on individual projects and events, travel, hours, environmental differences, etc. The price list below is ONLY A BALLPARK idea. Please talk to me one-on-one for a completely accurate assessment of my fees for your situation. Also, believe it or not, I do a LOT of trading/bartering, and if you have goods or services of equal value to the services you are requesting of me, and I am in need of them I am definitely willing to discuss it with you...
