FREE TRIAL
Submit 1–3 images through our Free Trial Form HERE to experience our editing services at no cost or commitment. This trial allows you to see if we’re the right fit for your needs!​
​Your images will be assigned to one of our dedicated editors, Jasmine or Rhiannon, who you’ll work with every time you use IPA Studios. By pairing each client with a consistent editor, we ensure seamless communication and reliable, high-quality results. These one-on-one relationships quickly evolve into a personalized, long-term collaboration.
Turnaround Time: Your completed sample images will be returned within 48 hours.

CONSULTATION
Once your sample images are complete, they will be sent back to you for feedback. This is your opportunity to discuss the results with your editor—what you love, any adjustments you’d like, and any refinements needed.
​
Every photographer has a unique aesthetic and editing style, and we’re here to either match your existing look or help you refine and transform it. Our goal is to consistently produce results that align with your vision. We are committed to making sure you love the final edits, no matter how long it takes. Feedback is a crucial and welcomed part of the process.
03.
BOOKING
Once you’re happy with your editing results, it’s time to schedule a session with your editor to complete your images. We use an appointment-based system to make the process seamless and transparent.
