BEFORE THE SHOOT:
With more than 25 years of experience in the industry and 10 years as a Headshot Photographer, Penny knows exactly how to make your photoshoot a complete success. Here are somethings to consider before, during and after the session to make the process go as smoothly as possible and get winning shots.
CONSULTATION
A free consultation is offered - by phone or in person. This is a valuable first step in your selection of a photographer. You should feel relaxed and confident with your choice so you can be at ease in your session. Our consultation is a great way to make sure that happens.
AFTER THE SHOOT
You will get an online link to your photo session with in 7 days of the shoot which will enable you to share and download your photos. A DVD of your shoot will also be provided with 7 days of your shoot at no extra charge if requested. You can purchase a thumb drive for an additional 10.00.
STEP ONE: RE-TOUCHING AND OPTIMIZATION
It's always recommended that you have your final image selections retouched professionally. Although an image can look amazing out of the camera there's nothing like an expert retoucher putting the finishing touches on your images for both print and web.
Every photo can be adjusted to improve the dynamic range or digitally altered to remove distractions and keep the attention on you and your energy. Photo optimization adjusts the contrast, tone, color and saturation of your photos.
Our philosophy is simple. Eliminate distractions and that’s it. Whether it’s a small blemish or a logo on a shirt, we can remove it so the focus of the photo is on you and your energy. One Light re-touch each look is included with shoot. Additional light retouch is $10.00 per photo. If you chose to have heavier retouching the photo lab I recommend, Pixels LA, has excellent retouchers. Retouchers can provide alterations to the shape of your body or structure of your face, proceed with caution. If a casting director is calling you because of your photo, you have a certain level of responsibility to show up to the audition looking lie it.
If you are happy with photos other than maybe slight color adjustments then your ready for Pixels. Have Pixels optimize each selected photo ($7.50/photo which includes a print version and web version). www.pixelsla.com 323-954-1582 [email protected] 6907 ½ Melrose Ave. Los Angeles, CA 90038
