60 edits (30 in colour and 30 in black and white) are normally provided for your gallery, this is not a minimum and if this can not be achieved this is out of the control of the photographer if you have purchased the standard session and I dont achieve a full gallery you will be offered a downgrade to the basic session here you can select 3 images from the gallery I do have, or you can reschedule a mini session to boost the gallery.

The budget session 3 included images are complementary and if after the images are received you feel you dont like any of them there will be no refund as the fee is only to cover the session time and editing

Editing time after the session can be up to 5 weeks but is often less, the digital files are delivered as soon as purchased or chosen, with BACKUP discs being posted as a backup option only, these are posted between 3 -5 weeks after your digital files are delivered.

Retouching

It is not possible for your photographer to know how you prefer to look, I can not spend the time in your shoot adjusting your hair or clothing to ensure it is perfect to you as every person prefers something different, please ensure you look the way you would like to in the photos before I take them as I can only re edit 2 free of charge after the shoot.
