Best Answer

The pay rate of a photojournalist varies widely from state to state and based on the job that they are doing. A photojournalist owns the copyright to each and every photo he/she takes. (some usage restrictions apply when people are involved) Thus, a photojournalist is selling the use of a picture more often than selling the full rights to the photo. There are different types of photojournalists listed below and some of the average pay rates that have been noted:

* Freelance Photojournalists: Pay varies based on job, magazine, newspaper or event. Some are job rate paid per photo or per session and some are hourly. Rate average $100 per hour or $150 per purchased photo.

* Wedding Photojournalists: True wedding photojournalists typically have a background in newspaper or magazine Photography. Their pay rate can vary by the hour or by the job. Prices range from $200 per hour up. I have seen photojournalists who charge $10,000 for their efforts on a wedding.

What do you think the ethics are for photojournalist today compared to the Civil War?

The ethics for photojournalists today emphasize accuracy, truth-telling, and respect for subjects' dignity and privacy. During the Civil War, the ethical standards were less defined and often sensationalized or staged for dramatic effect. Today, there is a greater emphasis on transparency, avoiding manipulation, and providing context in photojournalism.
