Our Portrait Editing Policy ~ (Applies to all Wedding Packages As Well)
With all portrait sessions we will be cropping all images to size 8x10 and discarding any blurred images.
We will give you all images on a Proof Disk along with your copyright release.
Any images that we choose for studio use that we edit will be included on your Image Proof Disk.
For All Wedding Photography~It is our policy to fulfill all wedding orders within
approximately 6 to 8 weeks after the client submits their final image
selections. There are factors that impact and may lengthen of our delivery date
such as clients changing their picture selection, availability of albums, lab
processing time and special services, just to name a few. Our processing of
orders is based on a workflow cycle. If an order needs to be pulled out of the
cycle, i.e., the client changes an image selection, the order is placed at the
bottom of pending orders. As a reminder, our free editing consists of Level 1
edits, which only includes removal of blemishes and small edits such as a stray
hair, etc. Any edits that include removing or fixing of specific elements of
the image, such as blurring parts of an image background, is done at a higher
level edit which has additional costs.

Photo Editing
Photo editing, or correction, is the manual process of removing, or adding detail. The editing is done in our digital lab and can range from minor adjustments, such as a tree limb being removed, all the way to major reconstruction of the photograph.
The easiest way to demonstrate this technique is by example. Note the photographs here:
From This......
To This..... And then ...this.

The examples here are what we call a Level Two edit.
Level One includes complexion touch ups and teeth whitening, exits signs taken out from above heads and basic photo cropping.
Lets look at this one. There is a lot of background clutter that needs to be removed. The swing, the fishing pole, and a house peeking out from the back. We removed the distractions to provide a quality picture.

 The image above was taken inside a hotel room with the curtains not going all the way down to the floor. The air conditioning and table were in the way next to the window. This is a level 3. |
Below is editing with a softening glow.
And here we have removed some color and twisted
some of the background.
