These were shot for the modeling agency. As with the images of Benjamin, I was not at this shoot but I was able to edit the photos. I found fixing the smallest details was very important to Jill. My view on editing is this, editing should be based on what your final product will be. If you know you're shooting for a billboard you would use the best camera available to you in order to get the sharpest image possible. One would also edit the image so it was flawless, the larger the image the more a tiny imperfection will be visible. If you are shooting for a models comp card where the final image is going to be no bigger than 5x7, the amount of editing and attention to small detail (such as a very small wrinkle in the shirt) does not need to be as intense. Yes, there is still a fair amount of editing needed done. But if you have a lot of work to be done with multiple projects, spending a few hours on one picture that isn't going to be very big or important just seems like a waste of time to me. Get what needs to be done and don't waste your time on frivolous editing.
