High Volume School Portrait Editing

Job ID: 40253409

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I’m looking for a dependable editor (or team) who can take on large batches of school portraits—expect well over 3,000 images at a time—and turn them around quickly at a reasonable per-photo rate.

Here’s what each file will need:
• Subtle color correction that keeps skin tones true to life
• Gentle retouching of blemishes while preserving natural texture
• Precise cropping to match the school’s print templates

The final look must stay natural; families should feel the photos haven’t been overly “filtered.” Consistency across the entire batch is critical, so Lightroom, Capture One, or similar batch-friendly tools are welcome if they help you maintain uniform settings.

Turnaround time and reliability matter just as much as quality. If you can also handle the occasional background removal, that flexibility is a plus, though it isn’t required for every set.

Please share:
• A brief outline of your workflow for high-volume portrait jobs
• Sample before/after frames that demonstrate natural retouching
• Your standard turnaround time per 1,000 images

Once we agree on file-handling details (preferred file type, naming conventions, delivery method), I’ll send a test batch so we can confirm the look and pace before moving on to the full run.
