Thanks for the replies. That does make sense after explanation. I was just curious as to if it was common or not. I imagine the photographer has a long standing relationship with this PP house and wants to continue with them. Thanks.

Has anyone heard of a photographer shooting lifestyle portraits, to indicate to a commercial(clothing) client in the contract, their photographs must be edited by a post processing vendor the photographer has chosen? As opposed to handing off photos to client with just the normal batch edits for WB, etc..? This seems odd to me, but I am not as familiar with industry norms. May be easy answer, but googling this was yielding no information for my specific question.

<p>If a company has received photos from a freelance photographer, and that company plans on using them in a large print run for editorial purposes, does that company have to leave a copyright watermark the freelancer placed in those images? Or can they be taken out? On the bottom of the printed page, there is a statement saying "photos used with permission by: ......." <br> <br />Thanks.</p>
