Get your life back | outsource your editing
As a business owner (and human being), time is the most valuable resource you have. Hiring a fine art private photo editor gives that precious time back to you.
Welcome, friend!
I'm Megan
I’ve been editing my heart out and making photographers’ lives easier since january 2017…
When I was in college a decade ago, I decided to start my own business as a wedding photographer. My career took off and whisked me away on the adventure of a lifetime. I traveled the world shooting weddings on the beaches of Mexico and in French chateaus, engagement sessions beneath the Eiffel Tower and the cliff sides of Malibu, and headshots at creative conferences where I sat on panels. It was the job of my dreams!
I decided to pursue private photo editing as a boutique fine art photo editor to spend more time at home with my husband and our sweet daughter. Now I get to empower other photographers to go live out their wildest dreams by taking the heavy load of editing off of their plates.

By The Numbers
After 8 years as a private photo editor, I’ve served some really incredible photographers from around the country while shooting a limited number of my own weddings and portrait sessions. Needless to say, I’ve basically lived in Adobe’s Lightroom software since 2017, and I wouldn’t change a thing.
Most of the year, I’m turning weddings around within a few days, helping my clients “wow” their clients with super speedy gallery deliveries. Investing in private photo editing services means investing in your client experience and elevating your brand.

My Why
I photographed my first wedding in the summer of 2012. I had just finished my freshman year of college and I knew I wanted to start my own business. I also loved photography. Fast forward a few years and I was shooting 35+ weekends annually. It was a whirlwind season!
During that time, I would have greatly benefited from outsourcing my editing. It would have been life changing for me. I wouldn’t have missed out on parties, family reunions, and vacations because I was on the couch trying to deliver a wedding gallery that was almost late. I knew if I could only have sent off my sneak peeks and trusted an editor to do the rest, I would have been much happier… and my loved ones would have been, too!
That’s why I’m now an editor. I love hearing how my clients’ lives have changed since deciding to outsource with me. It’s the most rewarding feeling knowing I’m giving time back to my clients that would otherwise be lost and unable to get back. We only have one life. We have to use it wisely.
An Investment That's Worth It
You’ve heard about “outsourcing” for years. You have photographer friends who send weddings off to their editors, booking more shoots and launching digital products with all the extra time they get back. You know that sending the bulk of your editing to someone else would expand your work week by hours, if not days.
The Question Becomes…
But you also know that outsourcing is an investment. It’s another expense for your business. The question then becomes, “What could I do with an extra X hours in my work week? How can I grow my business or create another stream of income?” The best investments give you back tenfold what you put in. For less than the cost of a second shooter, you could buy hours of your life back with a fine art photo editor… more time with your family and friends, a quicker turnaround for your client experience, and more space in your business to pursue those creative dreams you’ve had on the back burner.
