While having them delivered to you on a viewing link, a flash drive or via dropbox seems like the easiest way to get your hands on images from your latest session, this isn’t always the best way.  If you truly want to make the most of your images, meeting with your photographer after your session is highly recommended.

Your photographer puts a lot of time and effort into your session as well as the editing all of your photos.  A true professional won’t just abandon you as a client once the shoot is done. If you’re wondering why it’s important to meet with your photographer after your session, this is what you need to know.

1. A post-shoot meeting completes your photography experience. Having your photos taken is a personal experience, so why shouldn’t the entire process be personal too? Photographers prefer to take you through your photos so that they can assist you from start to finish and share in your joy.
2. Your photographer will assist you with the photo selection process. For some people, receiving a disc or flash drive filled with photos can be quite overwhelming, especially when it comes to selecting the best photos to print. Meeting with your photographer after your session allows them to give you their professional opinion on the best photos to print and what your printing options are.
3. Your photographer will be the perfect guide on where to place your photos. If you choose to meet with your photographer post-session, you may want to opt to meet them at your home. This way they can walk through your home with you and guide you on the best places to display your portraits.
4. Your photographer can help explain the best crop & orientation for your prints which can vary depending on what you are wanting to use your prints for. We can also discuss what needs to be removed from the image that may be a distraction in your print.
