To give an exact estimation on how long each edit will take is a very hard task.

Question 15

Why do I need to provide notes with my gallery?

Accepted Answer

We ask for editing notes to make sure you get exactly what you want out of each session edit. The most important thing we need to know from your editing notes are things we would not have known without being told (parents requests, unwanted or wanted marks and specifics).
For example: “The parents have asked to have their belly tucked and for the mark above dads’ eye to be removed. They have also asked for all body flakes on baby to be kept as is” CLICK HERE to see an example of editing notes.

Question 16

How specific do I need to be with my notes?

Accepted Answer

The more specific the better! This allows your editor to get an understanding of your likes and dislikes when it comes to your images! As time goes on notes can be refined as your editor will automatically pick up on how you like things! The one thing that we ask is always noted are things we would not have known without being told.

Question 17

What do I do if I would like something changed or refined once I have received my images?

Accepted Answer

Invoice that are paid within 48 hours are subject to a free 1-hour revision session on any images if needed. If there is something that you would like changed or fixed simply contact your editor directly who will complete your request ASAP.
