If you take a look, those "$50 packages" usually include 50 or more JPGs. I know a pro photographer in my area who will shoot 800 images in a 45-min session in her house, which means the setting and lighting is exactly the same. She'd make $200 and provide 60 JPGs.
If I can use a pro baseball analogy, she's a pro but she's playing Single A ball. I could care less about her, as her clients would never hire me. We live in different worlds.
I disagree with what Sauseschritt said. I think they do think about what they're doing, but they just don't know enough. They also often can't see the light. My wife can't see the light. In the early days, she'd come with me occasionally and I'd ask her to hold a reflector, but she couldn't even see the light that was being reflected onto the subjects.
As for you, it really comes down to the quality of your shots as to when you leave the area of Single A Snapshot shooters and get into Triple A or even the Major Leagues. From there, you then have to learn to be a businessman to begin earning $$ wisely.
In building your quality, it really helps to post pics here and consider everything said about them. Some things, you have to throw away as the comments may not be in line with your brand/style of shooting. But it still helps to listen to someone else's perspective of your work. I hope this helps.
