These images are great for making small prints or albums. Also great for sharing on social media. Great on your mobile devices, tablets, and on your desktop.
PROFESSIONAL EDITS INCLUDE:
- The standard editing +
- Fixing and adjusting a few stray hairs.
- Making the hair look more shiny.

-Removal of any small distracting objects.
- Adjusting the color and contrast in the eyes to make them pop.
- Adjusting teeth color.
- Adjusting makeup tones if necessary.
- Creating 2 skin separation layers in Photoshop to be able to separately adjust the skin tones and textures.
- Adjusting highlights and shadows on the skin and on the overall image.
- Possibly separating the main subject from the background for further adjustments.
- Possibly using a technique called liquify to manipulate how fabric drapes on the body.
Some photographers charge hundreds of dollars for this type of detailed editing because it's very time consuming. It's the type of editing done on beauty images in magazines and used globally for marketing campaigns.
These images will be great for larger prints, as the main image in your social media profile, or dating profiles. Also great for your company headshot. And useful anywhere else that you'd want to use a photo of yourself looking your best.
*Any additional or specific editing is negotiable and depends on time needed.
PRINTS
For Premium and Standard packages:
When your images are ready, I will send you a special link to your very own private online gallery where you'll be able to not only download your images, but also select different print options. From small prints, to canvases, to albums, and much more. Note that albums require a minimum of 20 images.
PORTABLE STUDIO
For an additional $50, I can bring my portable studio to your location.
This consists of a couple of professional photography lights, light modifiers, a reflector, and a pop-up background that is black on one side and gray on the other side. Choose one side or both. It can also be made to look white if the space allows. This is enough to make your photos appear to have been shot at the most expensive studio in Hollywood. Once we add some colored lights into the mix, you'll look like a star.
PROFESSIONAL STUDIO
You may want a specific solid color as your background. Maybe you want the privacy of your own room. Perhaps you would like to shoot in a space that has big windows that let in natural light and has hard wood floors. This is when renting a studio might be necessary.
I can recommend a few local studios. Usually there is a 2 hour minimum rental time. You will be responsible for booking the studio of your choice at a mutually agreed on time. Many photographers handle it themselves but charge you extra. I want to be transparent with you and only charge you for my time. But rest assured that this is not necessary to get some great shots.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
Cash payments are preferred whenever possible.
Zelle is my preferred digital payment method.
Apple Pay would be my second digital choice.
Paypal and Venmo are other options but you will be charged a small additional fee for each transaction (according to their current business processing fees).
Example: As of August 2021, there is a $4 processing fee from Paypal to invoice a payment of $150.
You can bypass this fee by choosing to pay a "friend" instead of "item or service" on Paypal. I'm sure that Venmo has a similar option.
If you are not currently using Zelle or Apple Pay, you can have someone that you know send the payment on your behalf.
Sorry, no checks or credit cards are accepted at the moment.
Thank you!
