That call came today. telling me that they made a big mistake, and every photo was awful.
They're daughter has moved to Vancouver, and the lady's mom is arriving next week, so it's now impossible for me to re-do anything.

They then asked me if I can possibly salvage some of these pic's. I'll be taking a look at them all this weekend, and trying some of my off camera magic. Hoping for the best.

Since there's potential for a lot of business through them, especially now that they've seen what bringing in the wrong photographer can do. I really want to do my best, and hopefully get more work through them.

However I really don't know what, or how to charge them.

If you had this asked of you how would you charge them.

I'll see if I can post both before, and after photographs, hoping that others will see it and hopefully avoid a similar disaster in the future.
Stu will there be any problems with copy rights since they are another photographers photos????
