FAQ
WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM MY SESSION?
My goal for every shoot is for you to laugh, feel comfortable, confident, safe, and leave feeling better than when you walked in the door. Whether its a studio session, on location, in nature, urban areas, colorful murals, the city, or your home we'll find the perfect location that fits your unique style.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EDIT & RETOUCH?
Most photographers edit any photo you see before you see it! Individuals have a hard time imaging what the image will look like with post work, so clients just see the end product. Editing can be very time consuming with adjustments to brightness, contrast, coloring, etc. Professional photography includes post work in the pricing. Some photographers spend a few hours after a session just editing! Wow! Retouching involves Photoshop or other programs to manipulate an image. Basic retouch often covers removal of blemishes, soften shadow and shine, fix a few stray hairs, or other out of place details. Retouching can get complicated with such things as fixing clothing, removing braces, taking away body weight, fixing large pieces of hair, etc. Retouch is typically a service on top of a photographer’s normal process, but can be included in her or his pricing.
