    need someone to edit photos

    The photographer of crowscrypt.com is one of those types that truly enjoy the artistic nature of photography and tries to push the envelope without consideration of money. The good news is he has tons of wonderfully artistically erotic photography, the bad news is he's sitting on tons of CDs.

    It's actually pretty funny, when we first started a few months ago a suggestion to have someone else edit the photos was clearly sacrilege, however, realizing he takes 40+ hours for each set, and after a few months, he's become more flexible on the matter.

    So we are seeing who can edit the photos and at what cost.

    One issue I've been having is at 1440x957, which are big pics, they sometimes show that he's been too aggressive and are not that sharp.

    I'd like to find a photo editor that can edit these photos to these dimensions, but keep the quality high. Ideally we want them fully web ready without any additional editing needed.

    If you are interested in this, we have a couple sample pics we'll like you to edit and show us the results, they are 'tif' files, about 10MB each.

      This is batched from an action script in photoshop (20 seconds each). You'd probably want to do a bit of manual retouching on skin blemishes before the conversion to jpg but that's a bit to time consuming for a gfy post.

          I did this by hand.. if you use a batch command it works on some of the pics but may not on others, also don't like to use too much smoothing on the skin because it makes it look too false

                  Thanks, looks good. I suppose at one level I don't care how the editing is done (automated vs. manual), but we'd like to keep a high quality level. Pricing.....I was thinking about a single price per pic or something, with some variation if there's a lot of work. How much would you want per pic?

                          What are stop points?

                          Sounds like something I would like to learn.

                              If these pics weren't so good I might think about doing that.. but when something is so close to perfect like these are.. they deserve special handling in my opinion

                                  ok, it took me a bit to see a difference, but I only saw the removal of face blemishes, perhaps there was more.

                                      I agree. I just fixed the blemishes and removed some flyaway hair. Great photos.
                                      No sig, just here to fuck around.

                                          I will post some side by side small versions. Had makeup (lipstick) corrected, whites of eyes retouched, eye bags or discoloration removed, skin blemishes removed, leg bruise or birth mark removed, and so on.

                                                  good work on the re-touching, but still not up to pro magazine quality, even though the photography and model warrants it.

                                                              Understand most of the fixes could have been done in makeup before the shoot, but retouching is very time consuming...we know, after a million pics, with some to major mags, we still go to photoshop for every image, even internet members area stuff.

                                                              Cost more, but well worth the $$$ and time

                                                                      If all of the sets are of the same model I can cut a deal.

                                                                      When multiple persons, tattoo removals, and bad skin complextion starts to become a factor then it takes more time, because it's hard to establish a consistent work flow.

                                                                      Anyways let me know....

You'd probably want to do a bit of manual retouching on skin blemishes before the conversion to jpg but that's a bit to time consuming for a gfy post.

                                                                                                                                      Can I ask for pricing info? I could do so individually but this would be a great chance for others to advertise.
                                                                                                                                      Pricing for me would be based on estimated total volume per order and the time you need the order to be completed by. Preferably in batches of 50 to 100 minimum.
                                                                                                                                      The more batches ordered at one time the cheaper I would go.
                                                                                                                                      Editing prices should not be more than 5.00 per quality photo. Prices can go as low as .25 per quality photo with volume orders.

You tried to tell me to use stop points, up until that I was not even talking to you. So I'd say the indecorum was on your part my friend.

You tried to tell me to use stop points, up until that I was not even talking to you. So I'd say the indecorum was on your part my friend.

                                                                                                                                              This is the last reply I'm going to make to you in this thread, my work speaks for itself.. and so does yours

I made it halfway between glamour and amateur, keeping skin yet softening bad areas, removing and adding here and there. Of course it depends on what you need, this halfway is quite time consuming to do, but this kind of work requires to know what the client needs
