The goal here is to find your very best photos, and, if you like, discard the images that are just taking up space . . . you know . . . the ones where the bird has already left the frame, the ones where your camera was on in the trunk and you have 500 shots of your car roof. Sometimes the most important thing that separates the good portfolios from the excellent portfolios is the ability to chose the right photos to edit.

How it works: I’ll send you a flash drive (or you can use your own if you prefer). You load the images you would like me to sort and send it back in a pre-paid self-addressed envelope that you just have to drop in the mail. You can be as specific or open as you like, meaning that you can either just let me choose at my discretion or let me know what you are looking for.

Rates: $35/hr You can cap the number of hours. The flash drive and first hour will be billed up front.

Delivery: I’ll send the files back on a drive with a Lightroom catalog or, if you prefer, simply a file folder of the best image files picked and sorted, or both. Turn-around time will be communicated at the beginning of the job and based on how many jobs are in front of yours.
