Standard vs. Premium Photo Editing: Choosing the Right Look for Your Business & Brand in Winnipeg
When it comes to professional photography, the difference between a good photo and a stunning one often lies in the editing. At Allure Photographers, we believe every client deserves images that capture their story beautifully, whether it’s for a corporate website, a branding campaign, or a milestone celebration.
That’s why we offer two levels of editing—standard edits and premium edits—so you can choose the finish that best fits your needs and vision. With over 10 years of experience and a talented team of photographers, our goal is to ensure that every detail is handled with care while giving you the flexibility to match your style.
What is a Standard Edit?
Standard edits are designed for clients who want a natural, true-to-life look. Think of them as the perfect polish for your photos without going overboard.
Gentle skin smoothing
Removal of small blemishes or pimples
Balanced tones and colour correction
A professional, authentic finish
This type of edit is ideal for:
Corporate headshots – keeping your team approachable and professional
Family portraits – preserving natural beauty while reducing distractions
Branding sessions – when you want clean, true-to-colour images that reflect your business’s identity. For many businesses, standard edits are all you need to refresh your website or social media with high-quality, professional images.
What is a Premium Edit?
Premium edits are for when you want that extra level of refinement and attention to detail. These edits go far beyond the basics to create a luxury, editorial-quality finish.
They include:
Removal of scars, stretch marks, and spider veins,stray hairs, grey hairs
Evening out skin tone and redness
Softening wrinkles and under-eye circles
Polishing away dark spots and blemishes
Smoothing dry patches or uneven textures
Premium edits are perfect for:
High-end branding campaigns – where flawless imagery is key to your marketing
Product launches – when every detail of your photos matters
Luxury portraits or weddings – creating timeless, magazine-worthy images
If you’re investing in visuals to elevate your brand or want an extra-polished look, premium edits make all the difference.
Why Editing Choices Matter for Businesses
The type of edit you choose impacts how your business is seen:
Standard edits keep your team looking natural, friendly, and professional—perfect for LinkedIn, company websites, and team pages.
Premium edits deliver that elevated look many brands need for advertising campaigns, print materials, or social media launches.
Our photographers will work with you to understand your brand identity and recommend the right editing style so your visuals align with your business goals.
Our Studio Advantage: Backdrops & Flexibility
Another thing that sets Allure apart is our studio spaces. We operate Winnipeg’s largest photography studios, giving you access to multiple backdrops, lighting setups, and uniquely styled studio looks.
Want a neutral grey or white backdrop for a clean corporate look? We’ve got it.
Need bold colours for a creative, modern vibe? We can make it happen.
Looking for moody, dramatic lighting to set the tone? Our photographers are skilled in both natural light and off-camera flash to deliver the perfect atmosphere.
Plus, our studios feature different unique looks—from elegant setups to modern, minimalist spaces—that can serve as additional backdrops for your branding session. This gives you endless possibilities to match your brand’s identity without having to book multiple locations
Beyond the Studio: On-Location Business Photography
While our studios offer a wide variety of backdrops and lighting options, we know many businesses prefer photography done right in their own environment. That’s why our team also offers on-location business photography.
We bring our professional backdrops and lighting to you, so you get the same polished, studio-quality results without leaving your office. This is especially useful for:
Corporate headshots for your entire team
Consistent branding photos for websites and LinkedIn profiles
Group photos in the comfort of your workplace
We also offer environmental portraits, which capture you and your team in your actual workspace. These portraits are powerful for telling your business’s story—whether it’s showing an accountant at their desk, a chef in their kitchen, or a creative team brainstorming together. Environmental portraits add authenticity and personality to your brand while still maintaining a professional finish.
Our Team of Photographers
While Allure Photographers was founded by Nefertiti Bergen, who brings over a decade of expertise in the industry, our strength lies in our team approach. We have a growing group of photographers who bring their own unique skills and creativity to every session.
When you book with us, you’re not just hiring one photographer—you’re tapping into a team that collaborates to deliver a consistent, high-quality experience. We’ll help you plan your session, choose the right studio setup, and decide whether standard or premium edits best fit your goals.
