No. and never will.
I believe my work ends with the presentation of the final product (album, prints etc). The cycle of photography always ends with printing and i always believe in that.
Your wedding album is for you to keep for the rest of your life. The dress you wore on the day only lasts 24 hrs, the food you ate will end up in the toilet bowl, you will only remember couple of guests you'd met on the day and the venue and the deco only lasts for few hours but your wedding photos lasts a lifetime.
"Shoot & burn" is not a great way to preserve the moments on your special day. -
high = 300 dpi
med = 160 dpi
low = 72 dpi
these are my definition plus :
med = can be printed up to 5x7
low = can be printed up to 4x6
industry standard? i think there is but i am not sure. -
1. i don't give out high resolution images to my client. if they want it, they will have to purchase the copyright which they will get all of the images. and i will keep none.
2. i also don't give out digital copies of my edited photos. they will get it in a print form (i.e in the album). if they want the digital copy of the edited photos, they will have to purchase a joint copyright of the photos.
3. all my photos/images have a basic digital copyright appended to it. -
Yes, I do.
Most of the photos that will end up in my couple's album are edited.
But i don't over edit in such a way that it destroys the value of the photo. -
Beautiful people. Not physically, but more in the emotion. I love to photograph people who are beautiful inside and out. They inspire me.

Successful people inspires me; regardless of their chosen field. But these four inspires me so much in what i am doing right now.

the most challenging situation is where i have to be on constant alert in producing great work for my couples. it was a challenge back then. it's more of a habit nowadays.
