Episode 40 // Special Requests From Your Clients by Ulices Del Toro

On this episode I discuss a recent request from a client to remain private and not use any of their photos for promotion or social media. My good friend Marcos also asked me about a client requesting some of his photos that he turned Black and White be re-edited in color, but his problem is those photos were over exposed and only looked good in Black in White. Enjoy the episode, I hope everyone is off to a strong start to the new year!
