photographer proofs
is this wierd? i had a photographer, not a vendor on here, and i decided to cancel today. luckily i didnt sign anything or put any money down.
there were a few reasons i cancelled:
his communication was a little off. it would sometimes take a few days for him to get back to me by email. then i scheduled a meeting and he had to cancel. i was pretty annoyed about that, b/c i took off of work. but he drove out to the house and i really really liked his pics, so i decided on him.
first he gives us a contract which has nothing about price, hours he is there, what is included etc. so i emailed him back and he fixed it, but i noticed something about the proofs that i did not understand. so i call and he explains it like this:
you get a cd with your proofs, not high res, but 100 kb, and they are all colour. you then pick out what ones you want to be turned into black and white and after that he prints up your proofs. i found that really strange. i do not have an eye for what should be black and white. i mean shadows and stuff really play a part in that. plus i need to look at pictures not low resolution proofs first.
do you find that a bit wierd? i can understand getting a CD as well as your proofs, but i have never heard of that before.
so i went with my second choice, who is still available.
