- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Hi, I'm an amateur photographer who hired a professional for my wedding. The photographer offered a DVD with the original images to do as we wish (which included a copyright release letter). This cost an additional $600 on top of the photo package. Being a professional graphic designer (currently managing the pre-press department at a small printer), I figured I could put together a nice book using the originals. Now, I asked if the DVD included the original images, but did not push further to ask if they included the original/RAW photos (see Tiff). I figured it did, considering she knew what I was doing with them (I should have asked though!) --It ends up that the DVD has lower resolution jpegs that would seem barely passable for 4x6's at Walgreens.
My question: In my field, that if an image starts out RAW/Tiff then that would be called the "original"...not a jpeg, that saved down (see copy).
Am I being unreasonable in my expectations. Obviously, I should have asked directly about the our definitions of "original". What are your thoughts?
Thanks
