Since pricing and fees differ from country to country, and region to region, I'm ideally putting this out to anyone in the South Florida area.
A professional photographer friend asked me if I'd be interested in shooting some aerial pix and/or videos for a few upcoming events he has booked.
Assuming that I pass my Part 107 by then, I need some advise on going rates, both for raw footage and a more professionally finished video and/or stills.
Thanks.

I am not in Florida or the US but here are some thoughts. What is your professional photographer charging their clients for taking images? That should be a good starting point. Look at the costs involved like transport, insurance (for car, home and on the job) running costs, FAA costs, your own time in taking the images and in processing them too in  whatever format is wanted. Look at the number of hours and start out with what you might get paid in the average middle paid job in your part of the world.  Look at what the cost would be in the lowest paid job. You are now beginning to get an idea of what to charge, and perhaps wondering if its all worthwhile!
