How necessary is it I fix extra distractions in wedding formal portraits?
I charged 1,000 for entire wedding. Formal portraits, which were supossed to be semi informal and quick – photo j style, which turned into 70 groups day of wedding. Lasted 4 hours. How necessary is it that I take out the outlets on the floor and the pew in the corners of the pictures? I am giving them disc with copyright.
I assume you mean you are granting them usage rights to make their own prints rather than giving the copyright away. If you are a legitimate business you need to get a real contract to nail these ambiguities and avoid trouble in the future.
Four hours for formals??? What were y’all thinking?!?!! Anyway I would show them the proof images and offer to “fix” only the ones where they are ordering enlargements. The others are what they are, especially for that price.
Here in the rural South formals are common, even in PJ work. Often even when the bride says something like, “Oh, I don’t want any posed shots so we won’t plan to set aside any time for them,” you can rest assured that MOB and Grandma *will* want them. So if you have a young bride, plan on making a few, even if she says it won’t happen it most likely will. They usually take less than 30 minutes if you are organized and have a wrangler, sometimes less, but sometimes more. The most formals I have ever done was at a wedding last spring, I counted 72 different configurations in the post ceremony formals, and about 50 more prior to the ceremony. It took well over an hour and IMO was a huge waste of time and resources. A few guests left before the B&G even got to the reception. We lost some great sunset light, but by-whacky she got every conceivable family configuration shot at the altar, down to step in-laws and third cousins!
