I personally thing your prices are fine. remember not only are you doing the application, but your an experience that they are paying for. Like Christina said, I would stick with your prices because it shows your confidence, value, and time.

Most makeup artists I know charge $150+ for brides. I think your prices are reasonable!

I think your prices are fine! The bride is just trying to haggle with you. She obviously wants to work with you - why else would she mention the other makeup artists' prices instead of simply just going with the other makeup artist, ya know? I think you should stand by your prices because it shows self confidence - in that you value your time and talent, and that you expect others to value it as well. :)

I just got my first call for doing wedding makeup and said I would charge a $125 base rate on the day, $50 (non refundable) for a consultation just for the bride and $50 for each bridesmaid on the day. she then told me that the other girl she called charges $50 for the bride and each bridesmaid and $20 for consultation.
have I asked for too much? I thought that was normal.
