About Highlights
Inspect Data Transfer Methods
Ask how you receive final files. Cloud storage links often expire after 14 days. USB drives can be lost in the mail. Download everything immediately to your local drive and verify file integrity before closing the browser window.
Clarify Retouching Scope
Define what retouching includes. Basic cleanup removes dust and minor blemishes. Heavy editing changes facial structure or removes wrinkles. Ask for a sample of their work to see the difference. This prevents disappointment with the final result.
Review Portfolio Depth
Do not just look at the best few photos. Ask to see a full sequence from one recent session. Check consistency in focus and exposure across the set. A good professional delivers 10 to 20 usable images per hour of shooting. If the portfolio shows blurred shots or poor white balance, walk away immediately to protect your investment.
Verify File Formats
Ask for high-resolution files in TIFF or JPEG format. Web-optimized files are too small for printing. Standard print quality requires at least 300 dots per inch. Check if the provider downsamples images without permission. You need full-resolution files to control printing quality yourself. This ensures your images look sharp on any surface, from paper to digital screens.
Inspect Backup Systems
Ask about their data backup protocol during the session. Professional cameras write to two cards simultaneously. This prevents total data loss if one card fails. If they use a single card, ask about their storage plan. Losing your photos is not a possibility. Reliable backup systems protect your investment and ensure you receive all the images you expect from the session.
Verify Image Resolution Specs
Standard web images are 72 DPI, while print requires 300 DPI. Confirm the maximum pixel dimensions they deliver. Ask if they downsample automatically. If you plan large prints, verify the resolution matches your frame size to avoid blurry output.
Confirm Group Photo Limits
Large groups require more time for posing and retouching. Ask if the package includes 10 or 20 people. Exceeding the limit usually triggers an overtime fee. Count your participants carefully to avoid surprise costs at the end of the session.
Verify Session Duration Limits
Packages usually cover 1 to 2 hours of active shooting. Setup and breakdown add time. If you want 20 different looks, the session will exceed the limit. Ask how they handle overruns. Some charge per 15 minutes, others waive small delays.
Clarify Delivery Timeline
Ask exactly how long post-production takes. Standard delivery is 2 to 4 weeks for edited high-resolution files. Rush services cost more but shorten this window to 48 to 72 hours. Confirm if you receive raw files or only treated images. Knowing the timeline helps you plan when you need the images for printing or digital use.
Discuss Wardrobe Coordination
Plan outfits that complement the background and lighting. Avoid busy patterns that distract from the subject. Solid colors or subtle textures work best for professional portraits. Discuss fabric choices with the photographer. Loose-fitting clothes can create unflattering shadows. Proper wardrobe coordination reduces the need for extensive editing and improves the overall aesthetic of the final images.
