Budget estimate

$20,000 – $50,000

The contract pays the vendor a minimum of 20 % of gross receipts from photo sales. Assuming a modest attendance of 2,000 families with an average spend of $50 per family on photos, gross receipts would be about $100,000, yielding a vendor payment of roughly $20,000. If attendance or spend is higher (e.g., 3,500 families at $60 each ≈ $210,000 gross), the vendor could earn around $42,000. Therefore, the expected earnings likely fall between $20k and $50k, depending on turnout and pricing.
