Exclamation Prom Print Prices?

I was recently asked by my old highschool if i could photograph for the prom. I live in a small town so i know that the majority of my clients would not consider paying expensively for their prints.
I am stuck between offering them cds for a price or whether i should upload prints and let them view and purchase them individually.
How much should i price the cds/and or prints?

I will probaly be photographing regular couple pictures.... one color and another bw. Then there will be group shots of the classes,males, and females.... and candid shots of the students dancing.

if anyone has any tips on dealing with proms pleas let me know. i am new to doing photography business and would like to know wht to expect. I currently have a canon eos 500d and an 580exii speedlight.

Thank you soooo much!

All I can say is that canon eos 500d works great. I know because I have one. Regarding the tips....I don`t know what to say. I would usually need more details on the situation so I can advice you one matter.

Have a look at post #3 in this thread. It may help with the shooting.
