How it works

How Photophile NHC works

01 . Receive Images

The post-production team receives the raw image files via Dropbox, utilizing the company's shared Dropbox link for seamless transfer. Upon receipt, the team organizes the raw image files into a structured folder system to ensure easy access and backup. Maintaining backup copies of all raw files is crucial to prevent data loss and ensure the integrity of the image files throughout the post-production process.

02 . Editing

Using professional photo editing software such as Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom, the post-production team begins editing the selected images. This process may include color correction, exposure adjustments, cropping, retouching, and other enhancements to achieve the desired look and feel.

03 . Quality Check

After editing each image, a quality control check is performed to ensure consistency and accuracy across all edited photos. This includes checking for any missed edits, color discrepancies, or other errors that may affect the final output.

04 . Client Review

Once the editing process is complete, the edited images are uploaded to a secure online gallery or shared with the client for review. The client has the opportunity to provide feedback or request revisions if necessary.

05 Revisions

If the client requests revisions, the post-production team implements the requested changes and ensures that the final images meet the client's specifications and expectations.

06 . Final Delivery

Upon approval from the client, the final edited images are prepared for delivery. This may involve formatting the images according to the client's requirements, resizing for web or print, and packaging the files for download or delivery.

07 . Archiving

After delivery, the post-production team archives both the raw and edited image files for future reference and retrieval. This ensures that the studio maintains a comprehensive record of all client projects and facilitates any future requests for additional edits or reprints.
