Edit My Images

Hi

I am looking to get my wedding photos edited as there are a few things i dont like in them.

I have already asked my photographer and they refused we have our photos on a disk with copyright though.

On a few of the photos there are people i would like reomoved and the rest i would like my hair fixing as its all stuck up and curly
 
With copyright for who, you or the photographer?

For us i think we get a disk and copyright of the pics so we can print them

There's your problem, you have the right to print them, not edit them.

Especially if they are watermarked with the company name, no photographer is going to take kindly to you, or anyone else, editing images and possibly displaying them as if they were edited by that photographer.

Go back to your photographer and get permission to edit, but I'll be amazed if they agree to this.
 
Atleast the copyright issue is resolved, it does depend at lot on what you want, if its even possible or not. If would of thought you'd be looking in the region of £50 /picture to have them edited as you've described. Is it possible you can post an example with a quick description of what you want?

Jeepers Hugh....£50 an image? I could tout myself to edit much cheaper but there are hundreds of retouchers who do stuff for $10 an image and I don't just mean a WB adjustment.

She (joanne) probably does not how to upload a sample image so this may be some wait.
 
True, but from her description say half hour an image, didn't sound like an easy job ........... Of course you could just outsource it all

I've sent some really quite nasty images to those Indian retouching outfits.
Most of the ones that have offered me some free samples have actually been quite good.
Sent a couple of old scanned soft, faded insaturated 1950's photos for a client and they tidied them up quite nicely and cropped to 8x6 of the 2 central characters, £4 per image.

Yep its amazing how good some of them are. I wouldnt do it with my won work but good for a quick look.
 
sorry had to go to work, i have no idea how to post a image on here but if anyone one wants to take a look a can email them.
 
Could anyone do us a album aswell id rather pay someone else than our photographer who wouldnt edit them for us
 
I am happy to edit your photos and make an album for you for a fair price. You can contact me by email if you wish (on my website, see signature).

I am getting married myself BTW in a month's time :)

Before I commit to anything, I'd like to see an example photo... Just to try and gauge what your expectations are.

If I was to be considering editing these images I'd be wanting to see a copy of the contract in relation to copyright before touching them

I have a copy of our contract and a letter off our photographer saying we have full copyright of the images
 
Can I ask what the wording is in relation to the "full copyright" Mine has a clause that images may not be re-edited or reproduced for commercial usage, without permission from myself.
In my contract you only have permission for personal usage. I believe that this is commonplace
