What are you hoping to do? Just the pics on CD and proofs?
And when people talk of proofs, are these totally not touched
at all as far as brightness, contrast, white balance, etc.?
Well, the plan is, for proofs, to do minimal editing - just basic batch processing, adjusting exposure levels and white balance as needed, but otherwise untouched. For now, I'm including both a CD of ready-to-print high rez files, and a proof booket (or 4x6 prints in a box). Eventually however, I do believe the proof booklet/prints will be an add-on. Or the base price will go up to include them. Don't know which yet. But we're including both for now to generate interest - kind of an introductory special.
I'm also listing my print prices very low, again, for starters, to generate interest. I'm offering 2 options - basic prints with the same basic editing - maybe taking it a small step further and tweaking levels further, or artistic prints if they want something more fancy, like softening skin or removing an object, etc. I suppose I should do more research on that b/c it could come back to bite me in the butt, b/c if someone has 5 different intricate requests on one print, it should cost more than if they only have one. I believe most photographers charge according to the request, such as glass glare removal for one fee, selective color for another fee, and so on.
I'm a little nervous b/c the bride's mother for this first booking did ask several questions about albums - albums will include basic and minimal 'artistic' editing. I'm hoping the request blows over, but we'll see. Like I said, it's not until next December, so by the time we get around to designing an album, I should have a better grasp of the process.
