- STEP 2: PROOFING GALLERY INFORMATION AND WATERMARKS

Important Information About Accessing Your Gallery
When you first enter the gallery, some pop-up menus will appear. Please take a moment to read through these instructions carefully. They provide important details on how to favorite your images and place orders, ensuring the process goes smoothly.
We’ve added a proof watermark to all images in the gallery. Over the years, we’ve noticed unauthorized images from our galleries being shared online. Please understand that these images are protected, and usage rights are granted only after purchase. Screenshots or sharing of unpurchased images is not permitted and compromises the integrity of our work as a small business.
Once your order is complete, you will receive a separate download of your images without the watermark. We appreciate your respect and understanding—it helps us continue providing these cherished moments for you and your furry family members!

- STEP 7: PROCESSING DELAY AND EDITING INFORMATION
-
Important Information About Your Order and Editing Process
Once you’ve completed your order, please note there will be a 7-day delay before your files are released. This gives us the necessary time to carefully review and fully edit your selected images. Even if you order a digital file, it will go through our full editing process, so it will not be available for immediate download.
Prints and Cards
If you order prints or holiday cards, we’ll take extra care to review the files and apply any additional edits needed to ensure they look their absolute best before releasing the order to our lab.
About PupTrait Booth Images
The images in the gallery are straight out of the camera and have not yet been retouched. Any images purchased will go through a full editing process, which includes:
- Leash Removal: While we did our best to keep leashes hidden during your session, this wasn’t always possible. We will make reasonable efforts to remove leashes (and our amazing assistant, if visible).
- Background Corrections: If any part of your image was photographed off the backdrop, we’ll adjust the background to ensure a polished final image.
If you have specific concerns or questions about the editing process, feel free to reach out to me directly at Lauren@desiluphotography.com —I’d be happy to help!
Thank you for your patience as we ensure your PupTraits are perfect. We can’t wait for you to enjoy the final results! πΎπ
