Same way if a shooter takes $150 he'll probably makeup for it well in volume of orders he will get. So I'm not kidding when i say he's happy earning less.. less from me but not from his total targetted income which also doesn't make him less able either.

Very good point, lower the price and raise the volume. the problem with the formula that works for a paysite is it does not work for those shooting content. 100 extra surfers produce $3,000 in Turn Over less processing and affiliates payments the extra cost is BW. So a lot of extra profit.
With shooting at $1,000 a day 50% goes straight to the model and possibly agent. Then there are lots of other costs. Cameras, lights, clothing, props, studio or locations, film tapes, DVD discs, postage. All these costs have to be met for a days shoot. Cameras and lights need servicing yearly or replacing, props and clothing need replacing, studios need decorating. Yes the studio and staff are paid for so no need to add them on
These are costs that are paid out on every days shoot. The only way to shoot for less is to pay the model a lot less and we can't do that here.
As I said show me the guys who shoot custom for $1,000 a day. I might want to talk to them about brokering or even buying in their work to resell.
