Frequently Asked Questions

What is Whimsy & Glow’s editing style?

Outdoor sessions are set during golden hour so images reflect and embrace the warm deeper vibrant tones of the desert.

Based on location, my settings and editing style, particular wardrobe colors are recommended to help make sure the session is the best that it can be.

The editing that you see in my portfolio is consistent with my style and brand. If it speaks to you, I would love to take you on as a client!

What editing is included?

I primarily edit for color, contrast and light, Minor edits include skin spot removal, eye brightening, +horizon straightening and skin smoothing edits along with artful color grading through hand editing are included edits for purchased images.

Extensive editing such as head swaps, body manipulations, object removal and cosmetic edits are not included.

Whimsy & Glow never releases unedited / raw files.

Do I have to print from the gallery?

No. Purchasing prints is entirely up to you. I highly stress that not all print labs are the same and the results may be disappointing depending on who you choose to print with. The final outcome may not look anything like the original file and cost a lot of money in the long run to reprint.
