Next Steps for Your Photos
FIVE MINUTES THAT DECIDE HOW YOUR PHOTOS WILL LOOK
The link to all your photos is already in your hands, so the fun part begins. All that is left is to pick your favorites and send us a few words. Those few words decide how your photos come back, so we have laid everything out here: how to choose, how we edit, what can be adjusted and what costs what. Five minutes of reading, and no surprises.
IN SHORT: WHAT TO DO
- Read this page to the end — everything here affects the result.
- Pick your favorite frames in the gallery — as many as your package includes. Or order professional selection: we choose for you, and you get +10 edited photos as a gift.
- Decide which color you prefer: Signature or Natural.
- Send us one message: the photo numbers as text, your color option and any wishes for specific frames.
- Download all your photos within 30 days.
Details below, point by point.
1. FIRST, THE SELECTION. EVERYTHING DEPENDS ON IT
Your gallery holds hundreds of frames, and many look alike. In one take your eyes are open, in the next you blinked; here the dress flies beautifully, there a hand covers a face; this frame is sharp, the one next to it slightly soft. Editing turns a good photo into a beautiful one, but it cannot sharpen a soft focus or open closed eyes. So choose carefully: these very frames will become your finished photos.
Pick as many frames as your package includes and send us their numbers — see point 8 for exactly how.
You have 30 days to choose. We work in a live queue, so after that editing is possible only for an extra fee.
You will receive the finished photos within 3–10 business days after you send the list.
NOT SURE? LET US CHOOSE — AND GET 10 EXTRA EDITED PHOTOS AS A GIFT
We look at your frames with a photographer’s eye: focus, light, posture and that one expression that is easy to miss among a hundred similar shots. With professional selection you get:
- the strongest frame of every moment — sharp, eyes open, the best pose;
- zero hours spent scrolling through hundreds of similar shots;
- +10 edited photos on top of your package, as a gift — $250 worth at the regular price.
Professional selection costs $100. To order, simply reply: “You choose”.
2. WANT MORE FINISHED PHOTOS? NOW IS THE BEST MOMENT
Editing one extra photo costs $25. But if you add extra frames right now, together with the main ones, we take them into the same batch — and the price drops:
- $10 for 1 extra photo;
- $45 for 5 extra photos;
- $80 for 10 extra photos.
The photos included in your package are already paid for — nothing extra to pay for those.
Ordering professional selection? Your 10 gift photos are already included — and you can add more at the same reduced prices.
3. HOW WE EDIT
No one-filter-fits-all. We develop every session by hand to the light at the moment of your shoot, so a sunset evening and a bright noon look different, yet always in our recognizable style.
Want to see in advance how your photos will come back? Open our portfolio and Instagram: this is exactly how we edit.
4. TWO COLOR OPTIONS — YOU CHOOSE
Along with your list, tell us which option feels closer to you.
Signature — our signature color
This is how the photos in our portfolio look: rich, contrasty, with detail and depth.
It is the default: if you say nothing about color, this is what we do.
Natural — as in the originals
Do you like how the frames look unedited: natural skin tones, light and mood as in real life? Tell us, and we will keep that color, adding only a touch of brightness and contrast.
5. RETOUCHING IS THE SAME IN BOTH
The only difference between Signature and Natural is color. Full retouching is included in both: we remove strangers, cars and objects, even out skin, fix small flaws and, where needed, gently refine the silhouette.
6. THE COLOR OPTION IS CHOSEN BEFORE WE START
You can choose your option only before we begin editing.
If after delivery you want the other one — say, you received Signature and now prefer Natural — that is a new edit of the whole series from scratch. It costs $5 per photo.
In that re-edit we will also take in other color wishes: lighter or darker, warmer, greener grass, sunnier, more natural skin, closer to the original. That is not a revision but a fresh edit.
7. REVISIONS AFTER DELIVERY
Every photo is checked by the retoucher and the photographer before it goes out, so revisions are rarely needed. But if something truly bothers you when you look at a photo, you have one free round of retouching revisions. Send all your notes in one list with photo numbers within 7 days of delivery.
Free of charge we remove what really gets in the way: a stray strap, a loose hair, a stain, an extra object or person in the frame — when it is truly needed and technically possible. If something can no longer be removed, we will tell you honestly.
Why revisions cover retouching only: we work in two steps — color first, then retouching on top. On a finished photo the color and the skin retouching are not redone, but adding to the retouching is possible. A full change of color is a new edit, see point 6.
We return revisions within 10 business days: they join the general editing schedule. We will try to be faster.
8. WHAT TO WRITE BACK
Just three lines, and we get started:
- The numbers of your chosen photos (JPG file names) — as text.
- ❌ not screenshots
- ❌ not photos of a screen
- ❌ not a list on paper
Screenshots, photos of a screen or handwritten lists complicate the work and delay your session. All we need is a plain text list.
For example: DSC_0231, DSC_0247, DSC_0302, DSC_0318
- Your color option: Signature or Natural (if you choose nothing, we do Signature by default).
- Wishes for specific frames, if any: the photo number and what matters to you. Send them right away, with the list — after delivery they can no longer be taken into account.
Want more from your session? Add one line:
- “You choose” — professional selection for $100, plus 10 extra edited photos as a gift. You get the strongest frames without spending an hour in the gallery.
- “+5 photos” or “+10 photos” — extra edited frames in the same batch at the reduced price: $10 for 1, $45 for 5, $80 for 10 (instead of $25 each later).
9. DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING WITHIN 30 DAYS
The link lives for 30 days. Download all your photos in that time — both edited and originals. After that the link and the files are deleted from our system automatically.
Need more time? Just let us know in advance.
Something will not download? Write to us — we will help.
PHOTO RECOVERY
The link closes after 30 days, but that does not mean your photos are gone. Lost them, changed phones, forgot to download? You can always reach out to us.
After the link closes we usually keep the best frames of your session, selected by our team, and all your edited photos. This is how we work, although we cannot promise it for every session.
Restoring access to your photos costs $100. You receive the selected best frames and the finished edited photos.
We want the path from the shoot to your finished photos to be clear and pleasant for you, which is why we have told you everything in advance. Send us a few words, and we will get to work.
