Do you retouch photos?
All images are professionally edited in Adobe Lightroom and include color correction, exposure adjustments, cropping, and standard retouching. I do not perform heavy or unrealistic alterations — such as changes to body shape, facial structure, or colorization — under any circumstances.
When you book a session with me, you are agreeing to my editing style and creative preferences. Specific editing requests may be denied at my discretion, and photos will not be re-edited once the gallery has been delivered.
Do you provide RAW images?
RAW files and unedited images are not included by default, but are available for purchase upon request — pricing is determined on a session-by-session basis. Just reach out if you're interested!
