  • Is it normal for photographer to charge extra for re-editing?

    Yes. It is normal for a photog to charge for additional work. However…

    It is not normal to charge extra just to give the customer what they paid for in the first place, if that first deliverable does not include it.

    Check your contract for specifics about what the photographer is responsible for delivering, but if there are no specifics, you’re probably out of luck, if not a little wiser for who not to book next time you have a function.

    It sounds to me by the non-standard aspect ratios of the final photos and the relatively cheap price ($10-ish/photo) that you’ve contracted an inexperienced photog, and maybe some gentle “You know… other photographers I’ve spoken to wouldn’t do it that way” discussion might go far into a discount on that $75 “Artistic Rights Fee” or whatever they’re calling it.

    Best of luck!
