Edit RAW Images in Lightroom - Part 3

UPDATE: People, please be professional and use some common sense: 1. USE [login to view URL] and not some service where the client either has to sign up first OR has to learn some foreign language to understand! 2. COMPRESS the jpegs to max. 1,5 MB ... its enough. 3. MAKE SURE you can actually download 12 to 15 GBs of RAW images within 48 hours. IF you need LONGER to DOWNLOAD than I need to UPLOAD then you must be using a modem connection from 1997 and this partnership CANNOT work out even if you are a really good retoucher! 4. DONT BE SILLY - this project is set to a maximum of 250 USD. If you want to bid 600 USD you just have to look somewhere else. 5. READ the brief FULLY. Take time to check out the links and UNDERSTAND what is asked for. **************** Dear Freelancers, The job I want to have done is SIMPLE, but NOT easy. I am a wedding photographer and I need to have 600 to 700 pre-selected images edited. Post processing wise I can vaguely describe my style as: Cinematic (I shoot virtually only in landscape); for certain images i do a panorama crop where appropriate. BW only if the lighting is not good (usually only bridal preparations and some bits of church ceremonies) or if the lighting in the shot provides inherent strong contrast. I desaturate all my images by around 10%. I like strong contrast. Rich warm tones. Rich black. I use the gradient tool often to selectively dark the edges of an images especially when flash is used. i like Strong colors but NOT overly saturated or cheasy. Like this fellow colleages style - check his images out: [login to view URL] Please send me a test sample using 11 of my RAW images so I get a feel for your style and capabilities. Message me only with subject line "Outsource wedding images". Standardized email replies will be ignored.

If the result is positive repeat business can be expected; including a wider range of responsibilties such as creating wedding websites in WP or uploading online galleries. Post processing should be done with the tools avaliable in Lightroom only. If skilled and done efficiently, you should be able to retouch a wedding in no more than 12 - 14 hours. Happy bidding!
