well. i think its a good opportunity.
its doesn’t sound hard, and your stuff is good anyway.
It will certainly be easier than a wedding, of which you have done a few now.
And whatsmore.. its not like you're working with models or having 20’ billboards printed. (I guess you’d need to make that clear with them as to print sizes)
Just be wary of their contract… make sure they dont take exclusive world wide rights and copyright.
i'm no Chase Jarvis, and have much to learn,
even so, I just did a commercial job for someone i knows’ clothing company he's just launched. which was paid at an hourly rate.
they didnt have a big budget, and he liked my style, particularly my self portrait project.. so i did it.
and i'm gald i did. (and so is he)

we did something like 20 different designs over about eight separate sessions. including thumbnails for the website and catalogue.
( I still don’t think the website is running oddly enough)
The launch went well, sales are up, and as of January he’s going to be running the business full time. So yay! It wasn’t a failure.
The images are printed on A2 sized posters in stores, a catalogue that goes to the big-wigs that buy the stuff, and I believe some will be in a new magazine that’s just launched (MENU Magazine)
As well as all the watermarked images on facebook… its increased the number of google searches on my website quite allot over the last month.
i just made sure i kept copyright, and anything in social networking sites has to have my watermark on it.
Model releases for anyone in the images.. (that’s something you wil need to get their employees to sign.. they may evebn give you their standard release)
The way I did it, was the model signed a release to me and my company.. then through the contract I sold “usage rights with exceptions” to the clothing company.
**edit**
you probably wont have these luxuries if they are dictating the contract.. and there will be no socail networking.. but still, it wil opne more doors for you than if you dont do it.
**edit**
I say do it.. even tho' $135 for 2 hours isnt much.. it will be good for you, great for our porfolio.. and its paid.
