Your conference room, reception area, or vacant office (any room with available space roughly 8’ x 15’) will serve as a convenient studio where I’ll set up a backdrop and complete portrait lighting system, ready to go before you or your colleagues arrive.
Portrait sessions can be very brief (less than five minutes), or as long as you wish, to ensure excellent results for everyone involved. There is no limit to the number of frames I will shoot for each person. A session is done when excellent results are obtained.
Within 48 hours (or less with prior arrangement), your images will be available for review online. If you prefer enlarged contact sheets (6 images per letter-size page), we ask for another 24 hours.
Your chosen image (one per person) will be carefully color-corrected and retouched to ensure you look your very best. Obvious blemishes and shine are removed, wrinkles and bags under the eyes are reduced and softened. Yellow teeth and red eyes are whitened. We keep most of these changes subtle, but can be more aggressive on request. More elaborate retouching (no limits) is available for $75/hour.
This master file is then duplicated and optimized for both the web and for print, with the proper ICC color profiles attached to each, and delivered on CD-Rom or via e-mail. You are free to use these files any way you wish.
And our service does not end there. For those new to the digital process, we are happy to work with your designer/printer to ensure beautiful results in your web site or print publication.
We recommend—but do not require—that you obtain any prints from us. We take pride in the quality of our work, and our calibrated system provides consistent excellence in the final step of reproduction. Our prints are available at standard pro lab prices.
All of the raw files and retouched images from your session are stored on both optical and magnetic media for long-term safekeeping. They are available for retrieval whenever you may need additional copies, different poses, or a different type of output.
