NOT ALL PROOFS ARE THE SAME
What the word Proof means to one photographer, can be something totally different
to another photographer.
Low Grade Proofs
To some photographers the word Proofs means bunching twelve or more images together
on a single sheet of paper. With this method, the images appear ss thumbnails,
and, in most cases, have NOT been edited. Instead, they remain in
their
original unedited form. The primary function of these types of proofs is for the customer to pick and
choose
which images you would
actually like to have edited and made into prints or used in an album.
These types of proofs are not necessarily a bad thing, as long as you know what you' re getting.
They are low grade proofs and can not be used for display.
Therefore, they do not have
the same worth,
as HIGH GRADE PROOFS.
Personally, since most people have computers, I don't see why anyone would need these type of proofs,
when you can just have all your images put on a CD, at a much lower cost.
High Grade Proofs
With the proofs I pressnt to you, each image is printed as a 4x6 on high grade photographic paper.
Each of these 4x6 printed images have been fully edited. In fact, days have been spent doing just that.
You can actually call them prints, not proofs.
