How to deliver your photos
Sunday, September 30th, 2007Crazy last 2 days I just finished doing a lot of shoots some really fun stuff but now it is deadline time a bunch of features and one cover all have to be turned in this week. For any of you young photographers out there something that is very important when you start working with magazines is FTP it is where you upload the files straight to the magazine via the internet saves time and money so get yourself an ftp client either cute ftp or any of those kind some are free some are like 39.99. Also something else that is very important is File management getting proper file names and right formats to the client. The proper file type for Print is CMYK TIFF that is what all the printers use for your portfolio you want to use RGB TIFF these are very important things that will make you look a lot more professional to your clients. If you do have to give your client the files on disk Use the blank DVD-R’s with no logos on the front keep them simple and sleek and you will be all good depending on how big your job is sometimes you can have 40 gigs of photos this is where you need an external hard drive that you bill to the client then deliver the photos on that and your good to go but make sure you always BACK UP YOUR WORK!
