PRIVATE PHOTO EDITING and virtual assistant FOR WEDDING AND PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHERS
Welcome!
Feeling this? Read on!
Whether I'm your editor, virtual assistant or both, I become a part of your team. I root for you, I cheer for you and I work like you. That's my job and I pride myself on doing my job well.
Outsource your editing and office tasks to an experienced,
professionalphoto editor and virtual assistant.
I remember those late nights of editing, feeling like I would never be done. And then once I was, it was time to move on to the next wedding or portrait session. Or feeling like each day was the same... responding to emails, sending out galleries and ordering prints for clients. Let's be honest. Most photographers spend a huge amount of their energy on editing or other areas of their business that need attention, like social media, marketing and client communication. But the last time I checked, owning your own business should allow you time to do more of what you WANT to be doing.
By outsourcing your editing or office responsibilities, you'll have the time to do what you WANT to do, not just what you HAVE to do.
tired of feeling overwhelmed or falling behind on deadlines?
What would you do if you had extra time each week? Not just minutes, but hours.
Outsourcing is for EVERY genre!
If you're wanting more time to do other activities in your life, then outsourcing is for YOU.
I have clients that are senior photographers, that focus on mini sessions, do branding sessions, are family and newborn photographers and of course, wedding photographers. And personally, I LOVE having a mix of photographers to work with.
What sets me apart?
- I listen to YOU. I don't just edit the way that I want to. So whether you are a light and airy photographer or like a little mood, we talk about what you want and I work until your edits look just like you want them.
- We have a zoom meeting before edits ever begin.
- I keep notes of everything you tell me. Like your shadows lifted in all of your images and oranges reduced? That will be in your notes.
- I do my homework on everything that I can related to your business. I look at your website, social media pages, and anything I can find online.
- We have a zoom meeting before we start working together (and a few after!). This is a chance to go over what you need from me and how I can help you the most.
- I keep a Trello board for everything that I do for you and send you an invite to that board. This keeps us organized and up to date.

MEET AMY LEIGH
I'm a mama to 4 humans and 2 dogs. Lover of pens, notebooks (I'm old school!), Dr. Pepper and year round flip flop wearer. Over the years, I've always said that time is the most valuable asset I have because there are a lot of things I can't control, but I can control what my time is spent on and who it's spent with.
I have 15 years of editing experience that allow me to quickly learn your editing style and provide you with high quality, consistent edits. I've worked for a preset company (teaching others how to edit and use presets), as a full time editor for an award winning, nationwide wedding photography company and I've had my own photography business for just over 13 years. Oh, and did I mention that I used to shoot weddings too?
I know both sides of this business and how to help you feel like you can breathe. So whether you need help with editing, office tasks, blogging or anything in between, let's talk!
hey there!
The Process...
The first thing I like to do is have a consult with you to make sure we're a good fit. We'll go over what your needs are, how we can accomplish your goals once you hire me as your editor and I'll be able to answer any questions you have. This is also a great time to go over the process of transferring files. It might sound daunting, but I make the whole process super easy!
I offer an appointment based calendar system that allows you to schedule your edits in advance. Once I receive your catalog, the turn around time is 3-5 business days for weddings and 2-3 days for engagements and portrait sessions. You can schedule your edits as far as 365 days in advance!
I know outsourcing can be a hard decision, so I want every step of this process to be simple for you! You'll have access to my Client Portal, where you will find your Pricing and Services Guide, my calendar for scheduling your edits, the upload link for your LR catalogs. You'll also find a PDF that will answer questions and guide you along the way!
When your edit is complete, you'll receive an email to download your edited catalog. Then you'll probably do a happy dance and wonder why you waited so long to do this! You'll load your edited catalog back into LR, then export the jpegs like you normally would and deliver to your client weeks before you used to. And that's it! So simple!
