Photo Reviews by William Neill

I am pleased to announce a new service we are offering here at William Neill Photography. During the past thirty years of my career, I have always taught photography whether at major workshop programs around the country, through my Outdoor Photographer column, On Landscape, or online through BetterPhoto.com. Inspired by Ansel Adams when I worked at his Gallery in Yosemite, I learned from him the great value of sharing knowledge and giving back to the art of photography.

My new service gives you the opportunity to have your images critiqued by me via email. I will give you an overall assessment of your images, point out strengths and weakness in each photograph, and offer constructive comments on how to improve each one.

I will write reviews of your images, at a minimum of five photos that you will email to me. I will send to you the sizing specs if you decide to purchase a Photo Review session. I will also send you a questionnaire for you to fill out which will help me know what camera gear and software you use. I will also ask for you to tell me your goals for our session.

Photo Reviews will be completed in the order received. Turn around time will be dependent on my general work schedule (approximately 2 weeks).

The critiques will include comments about composition, light quality, emotional content, and post-processing. I will address both positives and negatives. I pride myself in being constructive and direct, but I see no need in being brutal in my comments. Each review will range from a few paragraphs to one page long. Should you have questions about my comments, this service allows for dialogue to help you clarify my review if needed.

The fee will be $200 for the basic Photo Review package. This Basic Package includes the review of five images. At the time of purchase, you will be able to add up to five images, at $25 per additional photo, for a maximum of ten total per purchase. Payment using either your PayPal account or by credit card. Credit card payments will be processed through PayPal, though no PayPal account is required.

Contact me with any questions you may have about my Photo Reviews. Upon payment, I will send you a questionnaire and details about sending your photos to me.
