[QUOTE="mathom33, post: 298324, member: 22304"] My sister will be getting married in a two months and has already signed a contact with a photographer. I've looked at some of his work online and I (being no expert or professional) feel that his work is on the higher spectrum of average. She recently had her engagement photos taken which he posted online for her to review. My complaint is that when I flipped through them, I noticed that all of the night shots either had huge clone/heal spots that were very noticeable, or the tripod (which he used to mount his strobe light that was set up behind them) was visible. He didn't even attempt to blend the tripod in or clone it out Again, I'm no expert, but it took me a whopping 10 minutes to fix about 20 low resolution pictures that I had taken screenshots of. Being that my sister and her fiancée are paying close to $6000 (package includes the engagement photos, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day), would you ask him to take the time to edit the photos properly? Would it be unprofessional to ask him to release the raw files to someone that is willing to take the time to edit them properly? What would you do? [/QUOTE]
