Every Path order is different, and your total photo editing rates will be calculated based on your services, number of images, overall complexity, and speed of your edits.

When you start a new order, we’ll ask a few questions and then analyze your images on the spot. You’ll get an accurate quote right away, so you know exactly how much your order will cost before you finish your request.

Here’s a breakdown of what we’re looking at when we assess your order and determine your photo editing rates:

1. Service Type 

Each service has a different starting price based on how complicated it is, and how long It will take your designer. You can also combine services—for example background removal + shadow—and when you do this, you’ll get a combined total that accounts for all of the services you’ve chosen.

2. Complexity 

Not all edits are created equal. If you only need a simple cutout against a plain background, that will cost less than something more complicated (for example, a cutout of a birdcage, or a curly-haired model standing against a wire fence). We’ll analyze each image to see how complicated your edits are, then price them to match.

3. Turnaround delivery time 

The default turnaround time is 24 hours, but if you need your edits faster, you can choose to pay a bit more and get them sooner. Likewise, if you don’t mind waiting, you can save some money.

4. Number of copies 

Need multiple copies of the same image in different sizes or formats? These are priced per copy, at a rate of 20¢ per file if you’ve chosen the standard turnaround time.
