Hello everyone! How many of you use an outside service for retouching and editing? History here-I work a full time job right now in addition to the photography business, house, dogs, husband, kids, grandkids...soon, hopefully real soon, I will be doing the photography only, but until then...not much time. If you DO use an outside service or know of someone who would be interested and is proficient without costing an arm and let, please write me.

I do all of my own (along with all the stuff you mention too!) But recently to help with event photography I went to the Graphics Dept in the local High School and asked the teacher if anyone in the class that was good and quick at PS would be willing to travel to events with me, do a some quick editing, and then print for me. He sent his best students and they were just thrilled to work with me and I was just as thrilled to work with them, they are GOOD!
Also, they work, gain experience and are generally quick because they are teenagers who want to be with friends! So I would call the local school and see whats available. My friend did this and he pays them 'by the picture/edit' instead of hourly. I just pay a fair flat rate...
Omgosh, Melinda-I just got off the phone with Lauren at Revolution and they sound wonderful! Checked out their site and it is the same.
Thank you so much for recommending them. Told them you gave me the recommendation and they said they loved you, too!!
I love http://www.wediting.com/ Great customer services too!
I did see something that does that... let me check my history. What editing software do you use?
Hi Chris-right now I am using Digital Imaging and Portrait Professional, but am not crazy about either. I really like the look from Revolution, though. Ideas?
I don't use one, but I know LavaLu is really good. It's kind of expensive though, about $300 a wedding. But they are good! I would check them out. I know a few photographers who swear by them!
I will definitely check them out, thanks!!
on one more thing about LavaLu, I tried to use them a while back and I was put on a waiting list, they said they couldn't take any more people for the year, so look into that as well.
