I'm starting to work for this bike taxi co-op thing for the summer. I haven't actually started so I'd need to ask the owner if its cool but I was think I could put a little note in the "cab" part of it ( Its like a tricycle with a bench seat in the back, I'll try to find a picture online) That says "Ask Me About Photos"or "Get Your Picture Taken, $XX.XX) and then I could email the photos to them or something.

I'm just wondering how much would be reasonable? I'm actually very new to photography and only got my camera a few weeks ago, so its not like there getting professional studio quality pictures, but they are getting decent pictures taken on a nice camera to capture that moment or memory.

Thoughts?
 
doesn't really seem too plausible to me. Im not sure where you are working but usually tourists have a camera or smart phone with them at all times anyway and they usually take decent quality pics so while your busy pedaling they are busy snapping selfies and uploading them to the interwebz.

just doesn't seem like too many people would go for that IMO.
 
Maybe, and it seems like a big maybe. People will bite if you use a polaroid camera and take their photo. they get instant gratification, you get instant cash, and they walk away with something their phone/camera can't fart out on the spot.

Other than that there's no way.
