Do Professional Photographers Usually Edit Their Own Photos?

[selenajain]

Hey everyone, I’ve been curious about the workflow of professional photographers lately. Regarding editing, do most pros handle their post-processing, or do they usually outsource it to editors?

• How much time do photographers typically spend on editing versus shooting?
• Are there any benefits to having someone else edit your photos, especially for busy pros?
• For those who do their editing, what tools or strategies help balance quality and efficiency?

Would love to hear real experiences or insights!
