Having a busy photography studio often means countless hours spent sat in front of a computer monitor, retouching images in preparation for up-coming customer viewings. The better the images look, the more ££'s your business stands to make. Here at Mike Turner Photography we busy ourselves with a mixture of portraits and model / makeover shoots, taking somewhere between 80-150 images per session. This could mean up to 2000 images require post-shoot retouching per week. This can easily take two retouchers, working full time to keep up. Cutting corners by not retouching some of the images can result in lost sales revenue, which is not an option. The better the images are at the viewing stage, the more money you stand to make. By outsourcing your retouching requirements you gain in the following ways:-
Greater flexibility, a quiet week or two means you don't have
fixed wages costs hanging over you. You are charged based on
what you send us
For smaller studios. If you retouch your own images, then you
are spending valuable time doing that rather than bringing in
more customers. Outsourcing gives you back your most valuable
asset...time.
Your studio is able to take on more work, without worrying about
bottle necking your production workflow at the post production
stage.
Outsourcing the routine retouching functions allows you to spend
time on adding value, by, for example designing collages that
can add ££'s to your sales.
