02 / PHILOSOPHY

Every pixel answers
to the image.

We do more than move sliders. Photera Imaging operates as a remote post-production department for studios, brands, agencies, and independent professionals. From consistent commercial catalog processing to detailed editorial retouching, every adjustment is made to support the intended use of the image.

AGENCIES & CREATIVE TEAMS

Add specialist production capacity without rebuilding the workflow.

Clear references, file naming, approval notes, and delivery requirements keep handoffs understandable for every stakeholder.

09 / WORKING DETAILS

Before files
enter the queue.

01 What should be included with a project request?

Provide representative source files, total image count, intended use, preferred dimensions and formats, reference direction, required delivery date, and any naming requirements. For large sets, a small group of representative files helps confirm the appropriate scope.

02 Are the website prices final quotes?

No. The displayed ranges describe common U.S. project scopes. A final quote depends on image quantity, source quality, retouching complexity, masking, compositing, number of outputs, and turnaround.

03 Which source files can be reviewed?

Common camera RAW files, TIFF, PSD, high-resolution JPEG, and PNG can be evaluated. The best format depends on the available source and requested result. Keep original files until the project and any revisions are complete.

04 How is visual direction confirmed?

Direction is established from references, prior approved work, written notes, intended channel, and specific requirements such as natural skin texture, accurate product color, or a defined contrast level.

05 What does the typical 24–48 hour window cover?

It can apply to clearly scoped small or batch-processing requests after files and direction are confirmed. Complex retouching, compositing, large quantities, rush work, or delayed feedback may require a different schedule.

06 Are revisions included?

The confirmed scope states the included revision allowance. Corrections within the approved direction are handled differently from new creative direction, replacement source files, additional images, or new output requirements.

07 How are client images handled?

Files are used to evaluate, perform, review, revise, and deliver the requested service. They are not placed in public promotional work without separate permission. Clients must have the rights needed to submit all materials.

08 Is artificial intelligence used?

Software-assisted tools may support selected production tasks, but they do not replace human review. Delivered files are checked for texture, anatomy, edges, repeated artifacts, inconsistent corrections, and output accuracy.

05 / HUMAN QUALITY CONTROL

Automation assists.
People decide.

Editing tools can accelerate repetitive work, but they do not replace visual judgment. Every delivered file is reviewed for edge quality, texture, color consistency, export settings, and the specific requirements provided with the project.

  • Non-destructive working process
  • Natural texture preservation
  • Output-specific file preparation
  • Human review before delivery
