Pic-Time review

After a headshot shoot, I’d ask the client which five photos they actually want retouched. Pic-Time 2.0 has a Selection Request for that on its Professional and Advanced plans. I can name the job, set the number of images and send it to the person who needs to decide.

Ask for a decision with a limit

The request is separate from a client’s ordinary favorites. I’d use favorites while they’re still exploring the gallery and send a named retouching request when they’re ready to narrow it down. The guide lets me select participants and message them. I’d make the limit and the reason for the selection clear in the invitation.

I’d keep this for ordinary portrait work. Pic-Time’s terms exclude nudity and adult material from its galleries.

Bring the choices back to the edit

Once the picks are in, the selection menu lets me export a CSV list. I’d use it as a checklist against my local shoot folder before opening anything in the photo editor. Pic-Time collects the choice of images. Monochrome Lab Pro comes in later if I need to decide how one of those selected frames should look in black and white.

Anabel’s take

I’d use one request for the retouching round. If the same client wants to choose prints later, I’d send a fresh request with its own name. A photo that works as a small profile picture can be a different choice from the one I’d put on the wall.
