What is the Third Edit?
- First Edit: Review all of the images taken at an event, and begin the curating process. This means that "top shelf" images are selected and set aside in a separate folder. In our case, we keep all RAW images from a shoot, whether selected or not.
- Second Edit: Each image that was selected is individually examined for needed color adjustments and cropping. Those images are then placed in another folder, and then uploaded to the client's gallery for review and selection.
- Third Edit: This is commonly referred to by many studios as "retouch." The final selected images by the customer for print, or insertion into an album, are scrutinized. Perhaps blemish removal, artifacts that distract from the overall image, or additional color or application of "fine art" treatment. Sometimes, that final edit or retouch may take anywhere from several minutes, to an hour or more.

Wedding Investment Risks - COVID-19 Impact 2020 Post 2
Is Your Wedding Investment Safe?
So, the question begs, "Are you protected if this happens to one of your favored vendors?"
There is peace of mind available, and I am surprised how many couples are not even aware that protections are available. It is called "Event Insurance." For many years, we have recommended to our couples to consider purchasing insurance. When they are spending upwards of $28,000 for their wedding, (average total costs of weddings in the San Antonio market), why not spend $150 to protect that investment.
A wedding insurance provider we have recommended for years is WEDSURE. I am sure there are many others. You can tailor the policy for the coverage you feel you need. But be sure it includes "Loss of Deposits Coverage.)
Think about it! There a lot of things that can go awry before, during, and after your wedding. Consider what you are willing to lose if your venue suddenly closes; guests acquire food poisoning; your photographer never shows up; or perhaps one of you are in a serious accident a few days before the wedding. What if a tropical storm or hurricane forces postponement?
A small investment to protect your big investment is certainly worth giving some thought. What do you think?
