IMAGE EDITS AND PHOTO IMPROVEMENT

PHOTO & IMAGE EDITING

Photo edits and improvements on the Gold Coast for all small businesses.

WHAT IS PHOTO EDITING?

In today's world we can take some amazing photos on our phones and no longer need big DSLR cameras to get quality images.


However, all devices have their own "style" and are often either not accurate from a colour range perspective or have the focus on the wrong subject. Sometimes they are too dark, or too light or a range of photos don't have a consistent colour tone.


Photo editing is the process of colour correcting, exposure correction, focus realignment or even cropping for consistent size.


Photo editing isn't as simple as throwing a filter on an image on Instagram. Good quality editing will showcase your image, not make it so saturated its just unbelievable. Some examples of my editing skills are shown below. Prices are dependant on the number of images and what kind of editing is required.

Information about a small business website from Geek Queen
Responsive websites designed and built by Geek Queen to suit all devices.

A well designed website delivers a completely unique online presence that reflects your business personality and theme. 


It is responsive to all devices, fast and is built around good solid SEO practices and meets web standards.

I do also offer a one page website for $990 AUD + gst. I recommend one page websites as a base to start with the idea that you will increase to a multi page website within a year or so.

Prices for photo editing are based around quantity and of course the original quality of the image. I can edit anything from holiday images to wedding photos. If you are interested in having your wedding photos edited, please check out my page on Wedding Edits. It is designed for photographers to use, but you are welcome to provide me with the images direct.


Typically I prefer to work with RAW images however I can also edit JPEGs if that is all you have.


I work with blocks of images, 50 being my minimum number. If you don't have that many, my hourly rate starts at $70 + gst per hour and I can do it on an hourly basis.


PHOTO EDITING INCLUSIONS & EXCLUSIONS


I will still provide you with a quote for your image edits, which will include:


  • A phone chat to calculate exactly what you are after and what your expectations are.
  • Editing style is the same for ALL images. We establish what type of edit you want (clean up, enhanced slightly, tonal change etc) and that will be used for ALL your photos.
  • I will pick 4 photos from your images that are quite different and apply the same editing style to all 4 images. This enables you to see your outcome. This incurs a $90 fee however that will come off your quote when you go ahead.
  • You will receive a link to upload your images to and directions on what I need
  • I will apply all the edits and reupload the edited files to the same location.


Bulk image edits does not include single image adjustments. If you have many images that you want to edit individually that would be done on an hourly rate. For example, should you wish to have 150 photos edited to the same size ratio (IE: 2:3 ratio) I would do that on a "do and charge" basis. I am pretty quick but these things take time so it would be a do and charge. 

PHOTO RECOVERY AND RESTORATION

Typically I don't do photo restoration. I just don't have time and I don't do it often enough to be quick enough. I would recommend you search Fiverr for someone who specialises in this.

1. DESIGN CONSULTATION

After you get in touch I will organise a 30 min design consultation.


We will talk about:

  • what you need from your new or redesigned website
  • your time frame and who will be providing the content
  • what you like, dislike and how I can help


To respect the time that I am committed to for clients, this is a scheduled chat. Unfortunately it's rare that I've got half an hour on the spot to talk. It's not that I don't want to, its just that I am usually committed to a client project (like I will be with yours). I typically try and do these conversations early in the day while we can both put our best efforts into it.

SEO & DESIGN QUESTIONNAIRE

After you decide if I'm the right fit for you, I will provide a design and SEO questionnaire. The design queries are so we can be sure we are both on the right page design wise before we move forward.

The SEO questionnaire is so you can put together all the relevant keywords, phrases and business descriptions I need to proceed.

3

INITIAL DESIGN

Based on your responses to my design brief, I now work on your design. At this stage the design will be shown as an image on all devices. We now make any tweaks to the layout or design options before moving forward to building the website.

This usually takes 3-5 business days.
During this time you will need to collect ALL your content and images. I will provide a folder upload location where you can store these files.

5

WEBSITE BUILD

After you approve the design and concepts, I move forward with building out your website.

Typically this takes between 4-6 business days.

I will forward you a preview link so you can see your website in the flesh. At this point you can ask for any revisions that are inside our scope of works.

WE GO LIVE!

Propagation (this process) usually takes 24-48 hours, however it can be done in as little as 2 hours or as many as 72.

WHATS NEXT?

Websites are NOT a "build it and they will come" situation. There are over 1 billion websites out there and while there might be a fraction of that number dedicated to your location and specialty, your website is new and at the bottom of the list from a search engine perspective.

To move up the list you need many things but primarily you need to push and promote your own website as a matter of importance. I will provide a link to what you should do with your brand new website at the start of our process.
