A different type of editing service
Completely personalised editing. Your images will look like you stayed up all night working on them … but you’ll look like you slept!
I bet you don’t believe we can edit your images and make them look just like you would. Your style is unique and nobody can match it, right? We said the same thing ourselves before we started outsourcing our own editing.
Well, what if you’re wrong? Maybe you don’t need to be chained to the computer anymore. Maybe you can get your life back!
Take the “Clone Me” challenge … for free. Send us one shoot and we’ll prove you can be cloned.
No more editing backlogs
Let’s rid your inbox of the phrase “I was just wondering how much longer …”
Beautifully finished images
Your clients won’t know the difference, but they might ask why you look so relaxed
Get your life back
Spend more time shooting, marketing or maybe just living
How does AI fit in?
We think of AI as a tool just like Adobe Lightroom and we love AI tools when they’re right for the job. For many of the photographers we work with, AI forms part of the process we design together and that’s usually because we’ve suggested it.
We all know AI can go a little rogue sometimes though (just google “AI hands” if you’re not sure), so the best of both worlds is to have an experienced human editor supervise an AI process for you. That way you get the cost savings from a faster process but without the nine-fingered hands!
How much is it costing you to be your own image editor?
Zero, right? But what if you paid yourself more than a burger-flipping wage and included that cost?
What if you included the shoots you can’t book because you’re too busy editing? What if you included those sales?
One of the photographers we work with did the maths. It turns out it was costing her $80,000 every year to edit her own photos! Now, every month, she’s keeping thousands in extra income in her pocket.
Here’s the plan
1
Chat with Iain
We’ll review your editing process, find all the tricky bits and make a plan together to replicate your exact process (or we can often speed it up for you).
2
Send us a shoot
We’ll edit it for free, to show you what it feels like to clone yourself.
3
We start the real work
If you decide you’d like to keep your clone and continue working with us, our aim is to be the easiest part of your studio.
“This frees me up to do more shoots in my studio and therefore increase my income. The turnaround is incredibly fast”

How are we different?
Before we started hiring and training our own editors, we tried everything to outsource our editing, and got frustrated with either being forced to fit a standardised set of adjustments, or developing an understanding with one editor only to have our next shoot allocated to a new person and having to start over with them. We just wanted our images to consistently look like our images.
So that’s what we’ll do for you. Consistently make your images look like your images.
The big difference with us is that we replicate your exact editing process, and then work out ways to do it faster for you.
Because we design a custom workflow specifically for your studio, we can include whichever parts of the process you need, whether that’s selecting the best images, raw processing them to your specifications, cleaning them up in photoshop, or even uploading them to Pic-Time, Pixieset or Shootproof for you. Best of all, we’re always looking for ways to speed up this process without sacrificing quality, so if there’s a smarter way using AI tools for example to save you money, we’re not only open to running those steps for you, we’re likely to suggest it.
Plans and Pricing
Our pricing is simple, and because it’s based on a flat hourly rate, you only pay for the edits you actually need. We use Australian dollars, so if you’re in the US or UK, you’re going to love the conversion.
Trial
- This is a partnership, so we start with a zoom consultation to see if we’d make a good team.
- The call is completely free, and afterwards you’ll know a) whether we’re right for your business, b) the likely cost to replicate your editing style, c) any options to speed things up and therefore reduce the cost.
- Afterwards, we’ll set up a trial job together and do 2 hours of editing at no cost while we develop your Custom Editing Plan.
Ongoing
- Once we’ve developed your Custom Editing Plan, we simply charge a flat hourly rate for whatever editing you require.
- When we complete each job, you’ll get a message and your images will be sitting in your shared folder, edited and ready for you, looking like you stayed up all night working on them … except you didn’t!
