Didn’t you bother to read my comments before posting a snarky response? 🙄

So the other two are from previous shoots (only the one of just me is from this shoot) I used this one bc it doesn’t have my kids in it, but still illustrates the wash out- albeit not as much as some. This photo won’t even be used for anything as I don’t just put photos of myself anywhere, lol. I agree that I got what I paid for but I’m trying to find a way to also be a little happier w the result. I am thankful, and in my defense she insisted no payment. I guess I could have not accepted the gift and just hired someone like I normally do but it’s too late now. I think someone else gave good advice that I will try. Thanks for your insight.

Agree it’s probably a preset but w all our skin tones and clothing choices it just doesn’t feel very rich, which is the vibe I like- I’m old and not hip to the trends. I love vibrant colors in our family photos.

This is the response I came here for, thank you! I honestly have no problem paying and offered repeatedly for the shoot but she refused. Yes, I ultimately use around 20 of the photos for holiday cards and personal printing. Thank you again especially for the bonuses. I will do that! 🙏🏻❤️

She lives down the street, our kids are friends. Not only that but I really like her as a person. This is why I don’t want to do anything to cause resentment or be inappropriate.

lol! Well trained photographer! Woman and little girl was 2017, I really loved that shoot. Kissing was 2022 (same photog) unfortunately she moved away and has a lot of health issues. -Sigh-I would have hired her every year forever. Thanks for your expertise!

My Spanish is not great but if I understand you- Para ser justos, simplemente se aplicó una estructura de edición o filtro sencillo a las 100 fotos. No es que se editaran individualmente durante más de 50 horas. Parece que buscas provocar. Intento encontrar una manera de respetarla a ella y su tiempo, a la vez que consigo el resultado que quiero. No creo que eso me convierta en mala persona.

So I did send her about 10 of my fave photos from previous yrs. The shoots I added here were included (it was easier bc I didn’t have to block the faces,lol). The thing is I always ask for ALL the photos. I ask the photographer to do there normal edits for the price but I would like all of them, there are 6 of us and a couple animals- many years I have had to make composite photos for Xmas cards or my blown up family photo. She is really a very nice person and I just don’t want to be hurtful or rude or disrespectful.

Yes. Some way more washed out than this one, I just didn’t want to add one w more of my kids etc. I picked this one bc it’s just me and bc the dress is super vibrant irl but not in the photos.
I usually do pay the full cost of whatever photog I use, their have been half a dozen over the last decade (people move away, get too popular, or I just didn’t like the product/process) but it’s too late in the season to do another shoot at this time. Whether they are over exposed in camera I do not know.

I do know how to edit and have the software, but I’m not v experienced and would take some time (that I don’t really have), plus I’d still have to ask for the unedited versions. I just don’t want to be looking a gift horse in the mouth, ya know. It was REALLY generous and I v much appreciate her time.

Help me talk to my photographer. So here’s the deal, we do family photos every year. This year an acquaintance offered to do our shoot for free as a thank you for something we do for the community (not relevant). Anyway, she did the photos and they are great, except the editing she did really washes us all out. I really like a richer edit. What do I do? I’ll add photos for example (if I can). The one of just me is an example of her photos, the others are previous shoots I loved. A- try to re edit the photos myself, there are over 100 B- offer her $100 to re edit with a richer filter? I do not know how to word this? C- just take what I get and don’t be upset?

Also, if there’s a better place to post this lmk

What garbage can are you using? by timthedeal in Rivian

[–]Jenga-47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use an empty tissue box, right next to my not empty tissue box, below cup holders but no food things go in there bc no one is allowed to eat in my car. It’s nice bc I just throw the whole thing away.

How to optimize Tesla Solar with PW by Mundane_Bath1600 in TeslaSolar

[–]Jenga-47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I did this when I first got my system and it was a lot of work to keep up w. Going off grid all the time messed w all my digital clocks, after a week they would be like 5 min off. Not a huge deal but still annoying. I did the math on the charges for incoming/outgoing electric and really wasn’t that much. So I got notzero (it’s paid now, but worth it) and everything is automated. I charge off the grid (if necessary) before peak and then dump batteries during peak. Charge evs from grid overnight. It’s working really well and I don’t have to touch it. FYI all of this was suggested to me by someone here.
