IMAGE PROCESSING, RETOUCHING, AND EDITS
You will be selecting the images I edit based on the package you selected. Any additional edits must be purchased before photographer will start editing. Photographer will only deliver the high-resolution, retouched, edited, JPEG images to Client and will not send unedited original "RAW" files to Client under any circumstance unless purchased separately. Photographer spends 2-3+ hours on each image making sure selected favorites are edited to the highest perfection. Photographer professionally edits and retouches face, body, background, contrast, lighting, color, distracting objects, and cropping.
-I highly recommend hiring a professional to do your hair and make up to ensure the highest quality photos. Please be sure to try on your clothing before the shoot to make sure it fits correctly. You should not rely on the photographer (photoshop editing) to correct your hair, make up, and clothing. The lack of quality within your prep can not guarantee high quality results within the retouching process. If you need a good stylist, make up artist, or hair artist please ask for my preferred list.
-PLEASE NOTE
Additional retouching fees will be required for poor wig installs. Your lace must be good quality, and blended correctly or you will be charged extra or left as is. (Up to $12/Image depending on severity) It's unfortunately not easy to fix in photoshop and adds multiple hours in editing to correct.
Rescheduling & Weather
Should the you need to reschedule, a 72 hours notice is required. One event of rescheduling is allowed, but please give as much notice as possible. Please do not reschedule for minor skin injuries or blemishes. If the weather is torrential and we cannot shoot, the session will be rescheduled or shot in studio. Clouds, light wind, light sprinkles aren't a problem and I usually go ahead with the session.
