Question 4

do you back up our images?

Accepted Answer

oooooooohhhhhh yes. Up to this point, I’ve never lost an image I didn’t want to lose. Immediately after our session, I backup the images from multiple SD cards to a local hard-drive, as well as copy to an offsite hard-drive. At any given point, there are two copies of your images in two different locations.

do you provide unedited RAW files?

I don’t! At the RAW state the images are not edited and don’t yet represent my photography. Part of what you’ve invested in me is my post-processing!

This depends on the season! If I’m in the weeds of wedding season, I can’t go quite as quickly as I’d like. But — I boast a speedy fast turnaround time for my wedding clients of 3-6 weeks. For portrait sessions, I estimate 3-4 weeks. I’ll always give you the most current estimation at the end of our session!

Question 8

do you touch-up every image from the session?

Yep! After the initial culling process, every image is post produced with my unique signature style of post-production. This can involve color correction, adjustments to exposure, selective black and white processing, clarity adjustments, tone-mapping, and others.
