Studio Policies & Information
Retouching Policy:
Finished prints are professionally retouched to remove any undesirable
blemishes or body marks that clients may wish to have removed. In
addition, the studio offers image modification for clients requesting to
switch faces, remove background objects, etc., when feasible.
Modifications made to preview images will be charged at $10.00 per change
upon request. This $10.00 charge will be credited towards the purchase
price of finished prints that are ordered with requested changes. Palmer
Photography retains the right to alter images without notification. No
charges will be applied in such cases.
Specialized modifications to faces, teeth, eyes, braces, hair, body
piercing, tattoos, clothing, bodies, etc will incur additional charges of
$50 per hour, $15 minimum.
Face Switching:
One of the best new services that digital technology has brought to
photographers is the ability to cut and paste between images. We now offer
face switching on group portraits to insure good expressions on every
individual from ages 1 to 100! This service is included on your finished
portrait prints along with retouching and special effects such as black
and white, and sepia coloring. Face switching is only possible with images
that are nearly identical, except for the facial expressions.
Cropping "sizes and shapes"
Standard frame sizes do not have the same shape! It is not feasible to
show 'exactly' how every image will look when cropped to the final print
size at preview time. Preview images are shown at approximately 5x7 shape.
Sometimes images will not fit into the standard size frame without
something being 'cropped' out. When in doubt - ask to see how your chosen
image will look at it's final print size.
Cropping facts:
4x6's are narrow.
5x7's are less narrow.
8x10's are almost square.
5x7's and wallets are the same shape
8x10, 11x14, and 16x20 are the same shape
4x6, 8x12, 10x15, and 16x24 are the same shape
8x12, 10x15, and 16x24 are not standard sizes.
Studio Signature prints:
Portrait prints created at our studio are marked with our studio logo or
artist signature including the year the image was photographed. The
signature appears on the bottom corner of all prints in a tasteful and
inconspicuous manner. We are proud of our high standards for creative
photographic artistry and printing. The signature ads a personal and
professional touch to our finished product; therefore please do not ask
Palmer Photography to make prints without our artistic signature.
Preview CD's:
Digital preview CD's are used for your reference only and do not represent
the quality of the final photographic product. Your finished prints will
be cropped, retouched, sharpened, color corrected, and printed on
professional Kodak Endura semigloss paper. (classic finish)
Online Previewing:
Online portrait previewing at www.photopalmer.com offers a convenient
viewing method for "out of town" family and friends.
