- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I agree about the light and shadows etc. particularly with the B&W. There are some that look nice enough (school jacket, plaid shirt) that would be ones I'd think would be appropriate to give the family - complimentary, no charge. I don't think I would have given more photos; probably better to just provide 5-10 finished final products.
Best thing probably would have been to suggest where the friend could get photos done professionally. It doesn't often seem to end up really working out that well to take photos for free. Now the friend's not happy with these and wants more (and the teenager probably isn't having it).
The problem with the photos with the gun etc. is that if the family now has them, there's no telling where they may end up. You don't need to have this kid get into trouble and then the family isn't happy that you took those type photos and they're now 'out there' etc. and it ends up coming back on you that the photos somehow added to a problem situation.
