We recently had a portrait done of my siblings, spouses and children for our parents. The resulting portrait- on canvas and print- came out with my daughter's eyes half closed and me with a horrendous double chin-which I've never ever had in a portrait, it's not a natural feature. My sister is saying that's not the photographer's responsibility, and I am saying it sure as heck is, otherwise I'd go to Sears. Who's correct here? I mean, isn't it their responsibility to make sure they have a good capture? She barely took but maybe 3 pictures, with all of us looking down at her- which i believe may be the culpret- but still, we had 2 proofs to choose from, both practically identical. If it isn't their responsibility, then possibly is this what deciphers the good from the great photographers out there? Because her other work is good, though I didn't see more than a family of 4 in her work, but mine was awful. Print quality was superior, but what good is a superior print of an awful pic?
