Detailed answer:
Meticulous Planning Process High-Ticket XiFLARE shoots are custom-tailored. We don’t just show up and shoot — we plan everything in advance with precision and creativity. Every move is mapped out based on available light, timing, and flow — so we’re never wasting time or bouncing around aimlessly. Outfit changes happen in clean, upscale spaces that are carefully pre-selected. Everything has to be perfectly synchronized creatively and logistically. The result? A smooth, efficient shoot with stunning backdrops and perfect lighting at every location.
Extensive Culling & Selection Culling is a meticulous form of art that distills thousands of shots into a tight, impactful visual narrative. We start with 4,000–5,000 shots, captured across multiple locations and outfit combinations. From there, we carefully narrow them down to around 500 of the most natural and captivating images, then refine the selection to 50… then 25, 12, or 6 depending on your package for high-end retouching. We then setup online galleries for you to easily view, select, and download your high-resolution final images — fast and seamless.
Magazine-Style Retouching (1.5 – 4 hours per image) This is where the final magic happens. Even before retouching, your images already look 🔥 straight out of the camera. But our high-end editing takes them to the next level. Each image is refined over multiple rounds — skin is smoothed naturally (never looks fake), colors are perfected, outfits are digitally styled, backgrounds are enhanced, and countless micro-adjustments are made. Retouching is an art form — and it takes serious time to strike that perfect balance between polished and authentic. All in, your shoot involves 35–65+ hours of work across planning, shooting, selecting, and retouching. — using top-tier camera bodies, lenses, and lighting gear (3 pro cameras, 5 premium lenses, all state-of-the-art). Given the results and what goes into creating them — this isn’t expensive. It’s high-value.
