Jason Shamesman: This is something we're considering but not planning to prioritize its development.

Carissa Vowels thanks for the update. Please make this a priority, communication between photographer and editor is critical to success and this is clearly a feature many people have been craving for a long time. Not being able to message an editor until you've already placed an order has been an annoyance for me several times, e.g. asking whether an editor will be able to complete the order within 24 hours, asking whether something is within their skillset, asking them about file formats, etc.
